It's been a rough month. Today, when not prepping for the power to possibly go out because of the storm, I focused on trying to get the spring decorations gift basket for my aunt done, which I didn't finish. I got a fair amount done on it though.
I gathered the premade items together: a set of fabric egg shaped gnomes with rabbit ears, a set of sequin covered eggs (that look like dragon eggs), and two little craft kits. One is a rainbow shaped scratch art board with pointy stick and the other is a set of peeps coloring pages with watercolor paint attached to each page to use.
Of the things I've made:
Earlier in the month, I made a set of pom pom rabbits and I had a friend help chose which one was the least unhinged looking one for my aunt's basket.
I started the clothes pin carrot. Technically, I'm making two in case I screw one up. I got as far as dismembering the clothes pins and painting the pieces. The base color is orange and you are supposed to dry brush white on top to give it a shabby chic look, but that isn't my aunt's thing. So, I used metallic paint in antique gold instead.
I also started the cardboard tube tulips. They are cut out and the stems are painted.
I think that's everything today. My brain is mush.
