..: Welcome To The 169th Masterpiece Monday And A Coastal Easter

Hi Everyone!

I pulled my box of Easter decorations out of the garage this past week.

I was searching for my decoupaged eggs.

And I came across the flower pots which I also decoupaged at the same time as the eggs.

I've blogged about the eggs before, but I never the pots.

I'm not sure why I've never posted them before, but better late than never!

These are solid styrofoam eggs, which were originally painted various pastel colors.

I bought them for half off at an after Easter sale one year. I repainted them in coastal colors and added speckles. The little pots were painted white.

When everything was dry, I used Modpadge to apply the coastal pictures I cut from paper napkins. Super easy!

Huntington Beach, California. I'm a Christian and happily married to the love of my life. I'm the proud foster mom of a beautiful teenage girl. I love sharing the beach and the simple, fun of boogie boarding with the children we foster. I never tire of watching the joy on their faces the first time they try it! That's why my home is called "Boogieboard Cottage". I love the simple, frugal and beachy life style. My favorite things are thrifting and collecting vintage treasures, cooking, crafting, and decorating.
