Altered Easter Egg Carton

I was recently inspired by Pinterest to alter an egg carton...

You know those cardboard egg cartons?

Well let me show you how I altered that very same carton into a  Easter gift...

I got out my craft paint and painted the entire container..

added lots of lace from my stash....

and ribbon.....

Printed out a vintage Eater card...and added lots of embellishments...

more lace, some cabochons and various flowers...

Then inside the lid, I added more lace and more flowers....

I love how it turned out...

very spring like and so colorful...

love that aqua flower!

But since it's going to be a gift, there will be some little things added

that I can't show you right now...

because as I said, it's a gift and well some of this should be a surprise...

I've got another egg carton that I'll be altering very soon...

but it won't be for Easter...because Pinterest is full of ways to alter

these egg cartons...stay tune!

Have a great week!

Sunday Song - CMA - New Artist of the Year

Typically on Sunday I pick a song that I've recently heard that I really like...

but this week, since the CMA awards are on tonight..I thought I'd share who the

nominees are for 'New Artist of the Year.'

I think usually there are 5 nominees but this year, there's only 3.
And so I'd like to share a song from each of them...
