who wants a lolly ?

 

Who wants a lolly ?

Go to bed and kiss your dolly .

 

These colourful lollies are fun and easy to make

so the kids can really get into the party spirit .

All you need are some plastic balls , I got mine from Big W ,

some cellophane and some curling ribbon .

 

Wrap the cellophane around and twist the ends to

make them look like lollies .

 

If you wrap the same colour cellophane around the

 same colour balls it looks really good !

 

Hang them inside or out they look so happy .

Also if you use coloured balls instead of styrofoam balls

they make a great take home gift instead of

the usual lolly bags .

 

I love mine so much they're staying up for good .

no chocolate easter

 

I don't eat a lot of chocolate .

This probably offends some people so I am sorry .

 

I do know I am not the only one ~ some people don't eat it at all !

 

I made some crepe paper carrots and filled them with popcorn.

 

They look happy and fun !

They are very , very quick and easy to make . 

 

 

Just cut a large triangle from orange crepe paper.

Cut a long strip of green crepe paper.

 

Fold the triangle in half along the long edges and tape together .

Fill with popcorn or whatever you can use nuts or lollies even .

Pull the top of the carrot together and tape it closed .

Wrap the long green strip around the top and secure with tape .

Cut the greenery with scissors to make it frilly .

 

So there you go , even if you don't have chocolate you

can still have some Easter fun !

Yes I have a new man .....

and he really is just tops !

I've had a sick child home all week and I am going a bit crazy.

easy Easter craft for kids

Easy , easy and almost mess free !

All you need is colourful paper even old magazine pages

and cardboard an old cereal box will do .

Tear a pile of colorful pages into small scraps .

The kids love this part .

Glue all the little pieces to the cardboard .

Turn the cardboard over and draw

some eggy shapes and cut them out .

Use a holepunch and put a hole in the top of the eggshape .

Thread some ribbon through and you're done !

These don't take long and is a great way

to distract the kids from saying

"When again is the Easter Bunny coming ?"

Hello Sweetie !

My daughter and her friends wanted to do something crafty on the weekend .

I gave them ribbon and fabric scraps and a bit of stuffing and we made lollies !

It was great , silly fun and best of all no mess !
