I have been working on getting the Handmade Easter craft-along projects together today. Does anyone know how to create a button for the craft-along to put in my side bar? Ok so quickly, before I get to the good stuff (the winners) I just wanted to leak some more details about the Easter craft-along.

1. I am finishing a new crochet pattern for the cutest Easter baskets you’ve ever seen and I WILL be sharing them for free…only to those who sign up for the craft-along.

2. We will be making some really cool and super duper easy chocolates for our baskets

3. Forget that yucky, petroleum based easter grass that gets all over everything, I have a better idea

4. Get ready to make some really easy and cute little gifts for your little one.

I will leak more stuff tomorrow so stay tuned.

Thank you to everyone who visited and left comments or shared my blogiversary celebration with me. It was super fun. It took forever to write out everyone’s name who left a comment or posted to facebook etc and make sure that everyone got the right number of entries.

Easter Craft-along sneak peak

By Tricia on April 6, 2011 in Handmade Holidays and Celebrations

Oooohhhh I am so excited to see who wins all the giveaways tomorrow. Make sure you stop by!

So on to a new project. I have been secretly planning this for a few weeks now. By now (if you have been following this blog) you might have figured out that I love all things handmade. With Easter just around the corner, I decided to have an all handmade Easter this year, excluding the boys suits. So…. starting Monday, I am starting a handmade Easter craft along. I am not sure about how I will work it out just yet so stay tuned but it is going to be fun.

I am thinking that I will post the projects and supply list on Friday and I may share my patterns that I have come up with for this craft along for free for my bloggy friends who sign up before Monday. Not sure yet but I am working on it. So for now, just a sneak peak at some of the supplies I have for the craft-along.
