HAPPY EASTER!

Hi Everyone,

I decided to do this week's sneak peak and post all in one.  Today I have for you some Easter fun, so dig in and have some fun!

With Easter here again there is always family get together's to go to or church brunch's to host, so this year I am going to make the center pieces for all the tables quick and easy. This orange and yellow center piece will help to get everyone in the festive time of year not only at brunch, but as you make it to. The center piece is a fun family craft that anyone can help create, so why don't we explore how to create this festive center piece.

Materials

• Hot Glue Gun
• Hot Glue (5-10 sticks)
•  35 Bunny Peeps ( I did two colors)
• Jelly Beans 
• Styrofoam Cone (The size is your choice, but make sure you have enough peeps.)

How To:

1.) Plug in the hot glue gun so that it can warm up.

2.) Dump out the jelly beans in a bowl in order to make the easier to grab, then place a glob of glue down on the Styrofoam cone. 

3.) Quickly place a jelly bean on top of the glob of glue.

4.) Repeat this processes until the bottom of the cone has a ring of jelly beans around it.

5.) Take the Peeps and tear them apart. 

6.) If you choose to use two color Peeps then lay them out with how ever many Peeps you need to wrap around the cone's base. I used 10.

7.)  Put two lines of glue up and down the on cone.

8.) Place the Peeps on the glue lines if you are using two colors make sure to alternate them. 

9.) Repeat this process until you make it around the whole cone.

10.) Repeat the process of putting the jelly bean on, but do it on top of the Peeps you just put on the cone.

11.) Make another layer of peeps the same way that you did the first time. This time though the number of Peeps used will decrease by about two.

12.) Repeat the jelly bean process.

13.) Repeat the Peep process and keep reducing the number of Peeps.

14.) Keep doing this pattern of jelly bean and Peeps until you get to the cones top.

15.) Once you get to the top if the you have run out of Peeps fill in the gaps with jelly bean or go for a run to the store and get more peeps.

16.) Enjoy this unique centerpieces at your Easter brunch! 

Thanks for reading, come back next week to enjoy a surprise post!

Hey Everyone!

I am so sorry that this is going up so late it's just that life has been crazy.  But,  Hannah decided to do a super bowl cake. Yes I know that this is done, but this cake could be used for anything.  It would make a really good birthday cake for the football lover in your family.  So, even though the super bowl is over check out this post.
