What can you make with gorgeous origami papers besides origami? How about these pretty Origami Paper Easter Eggs? Origami papers are stunning on their own, with lush patterns and rich colors. They make it really easy to make something beautiful, like these Origami Easter Eggs. I love kicking off this year’s Easter Eggstravaganza with these DIY Origami Paper Easter Eggs.

Feather your springtime nest with this sweet bird’s nest

Let’s give Mother Nature a nudge and bring on a little springtime crafting! Rebekah Meier, a master at mixed media, shares this mixed media craft for spring, which I’m calling a Bird’s Nest Diorama. How clever is it that Rebekah nestled her little bird’s nest scene inside an egg? Spring really is on the horizon, and in the meantime, DIY this Bird’s Nest Diorama.

The Indian corn print on the acorn caps reminds me of the…

(Last year, Rebekah shared her Folk Art Candy Corn Girl, and her Folk Art Halloween Totem.) Rebekah’s folk art tutorial…

Easter Eggstravaganza: Craft a beautiful, button-covered egg

I think this DIY Button Egg is one of my favorites in this year’s Easter Eggstravaganza. I love the bright button “polka dots” and the punches of color from the pearl head pins. Making a button egg is pretty straightforward, and a perfect TV craft. It’s a fun Easter craft for kids. Kids will love digging through your stash of old, mismatched buttons to find the perfect buttons to make their own B…

Easter Eggstravaganza: How to make an Easter Egg Shadow Box

I love the fact that Eggstravaganza Week lets me showcase so many different ways to decorate Easter eggs, like this Easter Egg Shadow Box. This Easter Egg Shadow Box has a folk art style and vintage flair, and is a keepsake craft for sure. You’ll use just half an egg, so why not make two – one for you and one to give as a gift. (And don’t forget about the Crafts, Coffee & Candy giveaway.)
