I have something fun to tell, and funner to share with you today. You see, for about a year, I have been spending much time with a whole bevy of characters...
They are a part of something very dear, that I am working on. As I looked at some of them the other day, I thought, why not introduce you to a little group of some of the faces I spend my days with?
Maybe even share them with you?
So, I did some redrawing magic, and turned them into little paper puppet heads...
Then I thought, "wait, these could double as egg wrappers for Easter!"
(remember the ones from 2009?)
So, here are 6 of my littles, ever so happy to say hello to you.
I turned them into printables, that you can use for personal use, in a wide range of crafty fun and whimsical ways. (give them several seconds to open)
The link above will gift you a two page printable that looks like the pages below. You can print as many as you'd like.
If you would like to use these as egg wraps, simply cut them out, wrap them around your egg, and tape the ends together in the back.
Easy.
We always have brown, light green or spotted eggs in our house, but I conjured up some white eggs so you could see how even a very plain white egg looks cute wrapped up as such. Of course, you can also dye your eggs, but if you have not the time or energy for such a thing, then simply print these, cut them out, and wrap your eggs up ;)
But wait, I am so rude.
I didn't properly introduce you to the litttle cuties.
Please do meet...
Lotti
Humphrey...
Tilly...
Cricket...
Lionel...
And, sweet Sam ;)
In our family we like to use plastic eggs that can be opened to reveal a treat, or coins. So, for a plastic egg, you can still use an egg wrap, or even doll your eggs up a bit with tissue and a ribbon, and place your egg wrap on the outside...
Or....
If you can procure some large chocolate eggs (such as these large French chocolate eggs Mombie gave me a few weeks ago) then you can most easily, use your egg wraps the same way...
I myself am using my little paper puppet heads to put around vases, and all sorts of things around my house...
I even wrapped some around sticks and made lil' puppets for playing with.
Mister Lovee suggested I wear one, but he had not noticed that I already had one around my wrist. I held my arm up and we both laughed.
I hope you enjoy these, and that you liked meeting a few of the characters that are part of my days. It's so lovely to get to share them.
I must go cut a few sets...
Have a beautiful & scrumdilyumptious spring week!!
See you soooon ;)
