Spring & Easter Crafts!

On March 23, I went to an Easter craft night hosted by the wonderful Melinda Lanier from Lanier Creations. My mother and sister came along and we had an amazing time. Here are some crafts that I made that night!
6x24 Happy Easter sign: Baby Blue Paint & Brown Vinyl
9x9 Christ the Lord is Risen plaque: Brown Paint & Beige Vinyl
9x9 Spring Has Sprung plaque: Black Paint, Beige Vinyl, Sanded Edges, & Mod Podge (Matte).
12x12 Plant, Grow, Bloom sign: Black Paint, Beige Vinyl, Sanded Edges, & Exterior/Interior Varnish. Once my patio cover is up this sign is going outside. Exterior/Interior Varnish helps protect your project from weather/home wear and tear.
Easter Egg Knick-Knack: Baby Blue Paint, Brown Vinyl, White tulle,  and Mod Podge (Matte).
All of these crafts are easy to do! Many of the wood sizes you can find at your local craft store (i.e. Hobby Lobby, Michael's, and Jo-Anne Fabric). At these stores, the wood pieces are already pre-cut and sanded, all you need to do is paint. If you are feeling adventurous, however, you can always go to Lowe's or Home Depot to get your wood as well (often times it's much cheaper). Paint, tulle, Mod Podge, and Exterior/Interior Varnish can also be found at any craft store or local home improvement center. If you are looking for vinyl and can't find what you are looking for at a craft store, here are some options for purchasing vinyl online:

Have you been working on any crafts for spring?
