I'm so happy to be back for the easter edition of Urban Jungle Bloggers. It was exactly a year ago that I joined for the first time, you can see it here, and what made me realize how a year had gone by, was to be able to see how much my plants have grown since then. You can see the one below is the tiny one I placed as Judith's place setting.
For this edition I wanted to do something very easy to make. If you follow this blog you probably know I'm a "bit" drawn to garlands. And of course this time my plant takes center stage, as well as the mini-chicks and my favorite chocolate of all.
And don't forget to bring out the chocolate eggs while you're doing this.
What you'll need is:
- old book pages
- scissors
- washi-tape
- watercolors
- string
And then:
-Simply cut the shape of an egg, as many times as you want, and paint in your favorite spring colors, with your preferred patterns.
-I made them all the same size, but of course you can make them any size.
-Once they have dried, simply attach them to the string with a long piece of washi-tape, on the back part.
-Voilà, nothing more, nothing less! Easter egg decorating the easy way.
Urban Jungle Bloggers is a monthly series with the idea to get some green into our homes. Every month Judith and Igor invite bloggers to share ideas for creating an urban jungle through styling challenges, DIYs, green tips and tricks. Every month there is a different theme on the topic.
You can follow and get more inspiration on Pinterest and Facebook.
Have a lovely weekend ahead,
Giova
No way!!! Did your succulents grow THAT much in 1 year? What is your secret? Is it the Cadbury eggs? Do you talk to them? Fertilizer? Dutch rainwater? Love the egg buntings <3 And congrats on your first UJB birthday!
ReplyDeleteYes way!! I was as surprised as you when I saw it :)
DeleteNeglect is my secret, seriously! Changed the pot once in the year, and water when I remember!!
What a beautiful succulent plant and cheerful Easter decor!! Thank you for being part of us Giova!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much Igor. I can't wait for all the "branches" of the plant to grow, so they go down like the one and only at the moment.
DeleteThis is such an adorable idea!

ReplyDeletePues como me alegra ;)
DeleteDIVINE!!! Love the garland and blimey, I thought you said you had no green fingers? Your succulent looks wonderful! Glad you joined the fun x
ReplyDeleteThank you so much!!! I never said I had no green fingers, a lot of people do say this though. The only plant I've never been successful with is rosemary, every time I bring one home, a week later its dry :(
DeletePaper eggs! What a great idea (wish I thought of that ;)) Love the succulent and ceramic bowl too!
ReplyDeletePosts are all wonderful. Thank you for putting a lot of work into it.
ReplyDeleteThis Easter garland DIY is such a fun and creative idea! I’ve been looking for ways to add a touch of greenery and festive vibes to my home, and this project is perfect. I recently moved into one of the apartments in Noida Extension, and I'm always on the lookout for décor ideas that bring life into small spaces. This garland would definitely brighten up my place and give it a fresh, springtime feel!
