Dyed Robin Eggs - Tutorial

Can you believe that these are NOT real Robin Eggs? I had to do a double take and read through the directions to realize that I can actually do these AND so can you! These eggs are dyed in a natural solution, varying the length of time in the dye giving them an ombre of blues. AND the speckles...it is edible metallic gold paint! Who knew there was even such a thing...well, at least I didn't. They are just gorgeous and there is time to get these done before Easter! For the full tutorial posted by Erica on Honestly Yum, simply click on the photo above.

Needles-n-Pins Stitcheries: Witch Hat With Legs Tutorial

Now we are starting to get into the really fun part of the year with all the holidays coming and right around the corner is Halloween! Halloween has become quite the holiday over the last several years. It is the second busiest decorating holiday after Christmas. That is just amazing. I always like Halloween because it is the one time that adults can dress and act like kids and get away with it. :)

I decorate my house for fall, but not a lot for Halloween as my kids are gone and I live on a rural road so no one would see the outside decorations if  I did, but I am sure many of you do a lot of outside decorating. I found this tutorial the other day and thought what a neat idea for a front door. Trendy Tree has the instructions for making this door hanging. It looks like there are a lot of steps, but it turns out really neat. :)

Have fun making this!
