I have Ella in a playgroup with a few other little girls a couple times a week. We moms take turns having the girls at our homes to play before preschool. Sometimes we do a little craft with the girls. This is the “craft” that Ella came home with last week — an Easter Egg Tree!
My friend had the girls decorate their eggs. Then she tied a ribbon and attached the ribbon to the egg with a glue gun.
Then they hung them on branches she had picked from her yard — stuck in styrofoam and covered in moss.
She also found some ribbon that looks like leaves and tied it onto the parts of the branches. What a cute idea!!!
This would be a great craft to make with your kiddos for Easter. I also thought it would be cute if you wanted to decoupage the pot with some colorful, bright paper!
Have a great Friday night!
Are you doing anything fun?
Also, just a reminder, the jewelry giveaway ends tonight AND the Weekend Wrap Up Party starts tomorrow — what have you been making or cooking or doing??? I have a fun giveaway for the party – can’t wait to show you!

I love the tree! My mom used to do something similar for us when we were little. How fun!
I did this for Christmas…I should pull it out and hang some Easter eggs on it. How cute!
Adorable tree! 🙂
How adorable Jen. Clearly Ella has your talent. I always just cut some fresh freesia branches and hang my lovelies on them. We will be right in the middle of moving this year, so no Easter tree for us! boo hoo!
DARLING!!!!! I made a similar tree for a client but spray painted the branches a silvery hue and glued fake (the pretty kind lol!) cherry blossom pink flowers and a few leaves scattered. She used it for a Spring has Sprung Party last week. I purchase that ribbon wholesale and LOVE the idea of using it. I am so copying that idea. Thanks so much!! And thanks for the lovely comment! Count me in to join the party…TOO much fun to miss out on!

that is so cute…and looks so easy to do!
Very neat idea. I might have to do this with Trey.
Have a great weekend!
hmmm, that could make a cute Easter Hostess gift…
So so cute. Way cuter than ours here. Your daughter is pretty handy at decorating eggs. If my son went at those they would all have scribbled batmans and transformers on them.
wow, ow creative!! Im going to try this and my 8 year old will be very thankful to you ( she's crafty, Im not 😉 Im off to check out your whimsical spring wreath now!! Lovin your blog, xoxo LA
That leaf ribbon just makes it, what a great find.
That is an amazing tree for sure.. I really like it and it something I could do. Thanks..
Have a great weekend.
This is So cute!! I was just thinking of making this exact same type of tree with my son and now you've inspired me to get moving!
Thanks for sharing 🙂
Super cute & super easy! Love it!
Happy Friday!

I love the ribbon that looks like leaves. Such a great detail.
I'm having my 1 year anniversary giveaway if you'd like to join in the fun or even promote.
Thanks Jen.
Such a cute tree! Love it! Also, thanks for the shoe pics! I was in need and went to target with you in mind and bought the brown sandal wedges that you have. I think I love them! I they are comfy! So…my feet say thank you! 🙂
Love it! The ribbon is adorable!

Very, very cute! I like it a lot! 🙂 Love that leaf ribbon too!
Blessings,

That is such a cute and green idea to do for Easter! Love it! I have decoupaged before and I think its a really neat idea to do on a flower pot, it would be all in bright colors and look springy for the holiday!
I LOVE this tree idea!
I may just make a centerpiece this weekend! It'd be cute to have the branches spray painted a light moss green or white too! 🙂
so cute!
thanks for the idea!
that is so cute and I love your runner you made its great!
Have a great weekend!

I've seen these before:) They are so cute and easy…plus they are SUPER inexpensive to make! How fun that the girlies get to make crafts all the time! And that leaf ribbon is too cute!
My sister and I did this last year with our kiddos and they loved it. We let them paint the pots and decorate the eggs. We didn't have leaf ribbon though. That would have made them fabulous!
