Kid Craft: Egg Carton Window GardenTutorial

Smiles and salutations!

As you know from the last post and many many before that too, I have always had an insatiable appetite for egg carton crafts. The year 2015 was no different because around this time last spring, I had the pleasure of working with Burnbrae Farms - the egg company - on a couple of egg carton crafts for their spring newsletter. Remember the strangely eclectic Rabbit Wall Bust? Yeah, me too. Well, I thought it was high time I share the other, more kid-friendly, craft I made for them too.

Wee Wreath with a Twist...

Took a little breather from this project to make one of my favourite-most things: a wreath.

Here's how I did it!

This wreath is made of one small cereal box cut up into twine like I've shown you here, wrapped around a large mason jar many times until you have a mittful...

Then slipped off the mason jar and twisted in and out and wrapped and twisted in and out and wrapped around itself until you have a slightly-bigger-than-donut-sized-wreath...

When done, I gave it a light covering of daffodil yellow paint, and topped it off with a sweet bow.

It will do quite nicely for Easter or the whole of spring even, wouldn't you say?

I will make a place for it in The Wreath Blog collection very soon too, can't forget.

You have a lovely day now. I'm off to chat with my seedlings, weeeee! More on them later...
