Easter Crafting Party Recap, and Square 12

Yesterday was a busy day, full of glitter and candy! How fun is that? As usual, I got so busy and distracted during the party that I didn't get a lot of pictures taken. But hopefully this will give you an idea. We did 2 projects -- we decorated boxes (which I had spray-painted ahead of time), and we made paper wreaths. Above is my finished box.


Kari made these yummy pretzels in these super-cute bags:

Here's a pic from the party to give you a sense of the crafting chaos!


After the party, I left a lot of the supplies out so that my girls could use them to make their own boxes when they got home from school. Both girls loved the fuzzy pink garland (as do I!), and they both made fuzzy, frilly boxes full of little Easter animals:


It was so fun -- can't wait to do another one! I did manage to squeeze in time to do my next square:

I was trying to do a very traditional looking open wreath with a bow at the bottom. I don't love the way it turned out, but what can you do? On to the next square! Overall, I love the way this sampler project is coming together:

Hope you have a lovely weekend!
