easter garland.

March 12, 2013 by mama lola

well, easter is around the corner, so it’s time to get some pastel decorations going!


my kids had a small window of time in the day, so i pulled out some card stock, some cookie cutters, scissors, markers and some string and we got to work on our easter garland. this is so easy and simple, and a perfect craft for those small moments when the kids need a structured activity.


i traced the cookie cutters, cut out the easter themed shapes, then the kids decorated and coloured them and then i quickly sewed some thread through. we hung up our garland in front of a mirror, as the kids decorated both sides.


whatcha think?
pretty cute, eh?

xo, mama lola
