Now that Black Friday and Cyber Monday are over, it's time to get wrapping.  I am always on the lookout for different yet easy ways to give our wrapping a special touch.  Here are some ideas to get the creative juices flowing ...

The House That Lars Built
I love using simple brown craft paper as the base and then getting creative from there.  Click on the links for detailed instructions.  Check out ZoLi Wraps  our Pinterest board for even more ideas.

What kid wouldn't love a bed for their favorite stuffed animal or doll?  With two girls, our AG doll collection seems to growing every year and I'm sure they will be needing a bed or two.  This will be a fun weekend activity with your little crafters.  Click here for a super easy tutorial from Hellobee.

A fun, modern take on classic friendship bracelets - add neon color!!  I'm thinking this would be a great afternoon activity for the kiddos this summer.

Click here for tutorial from the Purl Bee.  There are so many patterns to choose from - some super easy and some more complicated.   Here is a fun heart one I'm sure my girls would love to make.

I'm always looking for fun craft activities for my kids to do.  Would love to hear some suggestions.

Family Fun | Easter Egg Inspirations

Embroidery thread eggs from Craftberry Bush
Rubber band dyed eggs from Inkspired Musings
Polka dot eggs from La Receta de la Felicidad

Happy almost Easter.  In case you're still looking for some last minute egg decorating inspirations, above are some ideas I found looking around the web.  We haven't done our egg decorating yet so I think we will be getting our craft on tonight and trying the rubber band method.

Family Fun | Bird Feeder Eggs



What to do with all those plastic eggs after this Sunday?  Check out this fun craft from Victoria Hudgins @ A Subtle Revelry.  Re-purposing plastic eggs and bringing in Spring - love it.  I think I'm going to have to do this with my girls.
