What You Need
 


Step 1
Open a bag of Easter eggs. Now getting the eggs to form a circle while hot gluing them together is a bit of a challenge. So this part will require a bit of patience. 


Step 2
Repeat the same instructions in Step 1. This time around creating a bit of a smaller circle of eggs. This circle should fit nicely on top of the big circle of eggs without falling through.


Step 3
Create a smaller circle of eggs. Smaller then the one from Step 2. This should also fit nicely on top of the circle of eggs from Step 2, without falling through.



Step 4
With the biggest circle of eggs at the bottom, dab a bit of hot glue on the wreath of eggs, then place the eggs from Step 2 on top. Finish by hot gluing the smallest circle of eggs {Step 3} on top of Step 2 eggs. Your finished product should look like the image above ^.

The Final Project!
I laced the ribbon through the bottom layer of eggs. Tied a knot over the wreath hook, and made a bow with the ribbon to make it look pretty!




**This project was a bit difficult from beginning to end. I will say this, make sure that you put enough hot glue when securing the eggs together. This morning I had to dab some hot glue on a couple of them that decided to separate.**









What You Need:
Yarn
Felt
Hot Glue Gun
Scissors 
Needle & Thread
Round Styrofoam Wreath
Cotton Balls


Step 1: Make 's
This part of the project will require some time. Cut out about 24 's. This will give you 12 's total for your wreath. Fill the 's with cotton balls, and stitch them closed. 

Step 2
Take the yarn and wrap it around the round Styrofoam wreath. Securing the yarn to the Styrofoam wreath with a dab of hot glue.

Step 3
When you are finished with your felt 's, you will take pins and stick them to the wreath the way that you want the wreath to look. Pinning them will help guide you where to place them with hot glue.


Step 4: {optional}
I created a banner {handmade}. Very simple. I cut out 6 's, and cut out the letters LOVE out of the felt. 

The Final Project! 













Here is what you will need:

Frame 
{whatever size you like/preferably wood}
Fabric 
{whichever pattern you like}
Scissors 
Hot Glue Gun

Magnetic Sheets
Cardboard

Step 1: {Optional}

Take your sand paper and sand down the frame. 
**Only if you want an old rustic look**  


Step 2:

Hot glue your magnetic sheets to the cardboard that is measured the same size as the "back" of your frame.

Step 3:

Place your fabric over the magnetic part of the cardboard (step 2). Hot glue the fabric to the back of the cardboard, fully covering the magnetic part. Let it dry and cool down for about a minute. Then insert (step 3) in the back of your frame. Using hot glue to secure it to the wood frame. This is what is should look like:



Step 4:
