Pinterest Project #134 Tea Cup Bird Feeder

Oh this is too cute. Spindle is like 1.47 at Home Depot and use any tea cup and saucer you have.
I used Gorilla glue..glue the base on the spindle and tea cup to base. Fill with bird seed...Simple and so much whimsy to a garden.

Leftover Candy Craft

What to do with all the leftover candy from Valentine's day or in our case..last Easter?? LOL
We do love candy in this house but just a little bit at a time..sometimes the Easter Bunny or Cupid brings a little too much...
This was my brilliant idea to use it up. Instead of stickers and beads and glue to play with..we played with licorice, candy hearts and chocolate coins. Emm had a blast..in between bites of candy...without the glue of course. It was pretty fun..and I am glad the candy is gone for now. One more month until the Easter Bunny brings some more!

Pinterest Project #115 Ice Cream Cone Christmas Trees and Olaf!

This project was so much fun.
I saw this on pinterest and normally you would make the ice cream cone trees with green icing...but we are on a Frozen Frenzy in this house so we decided to make them...well frozen!
Olaf even made an appearance. I made him out of styrofoam balls attached with wire so his head even moves from side to side.
Placed all the trees in a painted shoe box with the castle behind that I painted and glued mirrors to for a more glittery effect.

The trees were decorated with sour patch candies that actually look like gumdrops so it worked out perfectly. Pixie sticks of blue were used for the snow on the trees and cotton balls on the base for snow sprinkled with blue pixie sugar as well.

Recycling Pumpkins We made a Turkey. Pinterest Project #40

We had a great time making this little Turkey.
I used tape for the feathers and glue for the gobbler on his face.
Next time I would glue the feathers and wings onto the turkey instead of tape..but it was our first try!

Great craft for toddlers to do and lots of fun!
