Bunny on the Front Porch

April 14, 2014 by Fotini Filed Under: diy, Easter, front porch decor, home 3 Comments

When I was a little girl I distinctly remember a life size bunny that my Nana would always have on the front porch at Easter time. When I grew up and had my own children, my Nana gave me that bunny! I have to admit, the last few years it’s been sitting in the back of the basement because I felt it just didn’t “fit” in with my Easter decor. So, this year I decided to change that and give this memorable bunny a makeover!
I started by covering him with a coat of Country Chic Paint in Cheesecake. I did two coats to cover the existing designs that were there. I love this paint and can’t wait to use it again! It coats wood so amazingly! I let the piece dry overnight. The next morning I grabbed a pencil and begin to trace out a new face and “welcome” sign. One thing I wish I would of payed more attention to was the detail of his face, because it was so cute before! But, I am happy with how it turned out! Next, I grabbed my acrylic paint in navy, black and pink and began to bring this bunny back to life! Lastly, I embellished his next with a sweet quatrafoil gray and white ribbon.

My kids just love it and that’s all that matters to me! We have enjoyed having the bunny on the porch this Easter, and will enjoy it for many more Easter’s to come!
Thanks so much for stopping by and checking out this project with me!

Here Comes Peter Cottontail….

April 7, 2014 by Fotini Filed Under: crafts, diy, Easter, Easter banner, home decor, Petter Cottontail, Spring 15 Comments

Easter is just two weeks away! In celebration, I made a darling little Peter Cottontail banner! What get’s you excited about projects you make? One of my favorite things, is creating something cute for very little money! This banner is one of those projects! I made this cutie for about $3! Join me as I share how 🙂
One of my favorite purchases I’ve made thus far in crafting is my silhouette machine. It’s amazing! I simply went to the online silhouette store, purchase the bunny design for $0.99, altered the size until I was happy with it and added some of the cute scrapbook paper from Target Dollar Spot. I had 10 done within just a couple minutes! Next, I typically use jute as my banner base. It matches all my neutral decor and I have tons of it! I work on my kitchen island, so I tape the jute into place and begin gluing the bunnies down using a heated glue gun. To finish it off, I added a single white pom pom to the tail of bunny and glued into place.
For such a simple project, a little time and a super small price tag, I was loving how it turned out! Thanks for stopping by and checking my Easter banner out! Have a great day 🙂

One of the things we all strive for in life is to be successful, right? No matter what it is you’re trying to be successful at, you want to master it, to come out on top! I came across the beautiful quote in a book, and it really just stuck with me! So much so, that I had to turn it into a printable and share it with you all, of course! 
I love it and I hope you do too! I can’t wait to frame it and put it in my office! Please be sure to check out the image source on the bottom picture, she shares her beautiful watercolor art for everyone to enjoy!
