Easter Week

Since Easter is this coming weekend, I am going to focus this whole week on fun things to do in preparation for Easter. All of the things I will blog about will be fun and frugal, which is always my favorite. This last weekend went by so fast, I lost track of time. Today is the start of school again, for the my husband, the kids, and myself. The busy life returns :) We will make the best of it as usual. The Friday family fun night will be in full bloom now.

So Here is a great Easter craft idea:
A Rabbit Windsock

What you will need:

white paint
tissue/crate paper (spring colors)
2 liter bottle with top and bottom cut off
string
stapler

Instructions:

Paint the part of the bottle you cut off which would be the middle. Let dry.

Glue on the eyes, ears, nose and mouth.

Staple the tissue/crate paper to the bottom.

Staple the string to the top and hang up.


Here is also a great sweet treat for all the marshmallow lovers out there:

What you need:

Marshmallows
Scissors
Toothpick
Food coloring

How To:
Using scissors, make a diagonal cut in the upper left corner of the marshmallow.

Gently lift the corner and make a snip down the middle.

Use your fingers to separate the ears and angle them outward.

From the point where the first cut was made, snip to the middle of the marshmallow.

Pinch the cut end slightly to form a rounded tail.

For the bunny's face, make an 1/4-inch horizontal cut midway between the base of the ears and the bottom of the marshmallow.

Create the feet by making a diagonal cut in the lower left corner of the marshmallow. Divide the feet as shown.

Using a toothpick dipped in food coloring, draw on the eyes, nose, and whiskers.
