So I began scouring Pinterest. Isn't that where all women go for inspiration? I began seeing these adorable wreaths made of plastic Easter eggs! (Click on the pic to check out where the inspiration came from!)
I mean, who wouldn't want to make one of these?!
Then I saw this and was DETERMINED to have one:
So, I go to Michael's and apparently blackout. Before I know it, I get to the register and have $40 worth of items in my basket. I can admit that I shot too high on the peep. The styrofoam and I got into a HUGE fight, and it was so ugly that I didn't want to share those pics with the world. The wreath and I also got into a fight, but it wasn't as bad.
So, I thought I could do this inside my apartment...
I'm clearly an amateur.
It doesn't seem that bad, right?
To help not to get too stressed over how my adhesive had me sticking to everything,
I brought out some baseball to watch/listen to.
I've had these eggs for a while, but I thought a pinwheel would be a nice touch.
Tada! I thought this was an homage to the peep that never happened.
But I know the wreath, by itself, was not enough. I needed something else to help make it extra special. So, I decided it needed something else.
I used the foam eggs and foam to make some peeps!
The finished product!
My door came out a lot better than I thought it would. I had thought about doing something else, but I think it would be too much. I need to go let the office know that we are officially entering the contest. Fingers crossed that I get the big prize! It's not exactly Pinterest worthy, but I'm proud of it.
