3595: 3595 Easter Mantle

At 3595 we have a HUGE Easter Egg Hunt every year! This year will be our 3rd Annual Easter Egg Hunt. I am so excited! I have been decorating for Easter these last few weeks. I know St. Patrick's Day is coming and I can't wait to share with you what we do here at 3595 but that will be in another post coming soon, I promise!

I only had a few decorations for St. Patricks Day and I knew we would have our BIG party, so I have set myself to getting 3595 ready for Easter!

Here is where I found all my items:

1. Easter Board from merchant Square (In Arizona) from booth 51! Love it!

2. Mr. and Mrs. Easter Bunny from Goodwill- NOT at Easter time. I found these one day wandering around and knew I had to get them. @thegoodwillgal

3. Jars are from Wal-Mart filled with Easter eggs that I got last year at Target on clearance after Easter.

4. The subway art is from a blog that has been removed. I am sure that you can find some cute Easter subway art on pinterest. (Someday I want to make my own, and I will share my creations with you.)

Here comes my favorite part of the mantle the

Cottontail DIY Easter Banner!

As I was setting up my mantle I knew I NEEDED a Easter banner, and I researched and couldn't find EXACTLY what I was looking for. I was going to use paper, but ended up not having any on hand. I had burlap in my craft stash that I had ordered from this Save on Crafts site. You can get burlap at any local craft store though. Then this idea came to me, and I LOVE LOVE it!

Here is how I made mine:

Supplies Needed:

Burlap

Silhouette of Bunny

(I wanted my facing backwards so you could see the cottontail)

Cotton Balls

Hot Glue Gun

Ribbon

Jute Twine

Step 1: Print your image onto paper and cut it out.

Pin it to burlap and cut silhouette out.
