Home Sweet Home #55

Hello and welcome to Home Sweet Home!  This week has flown by.  I started with some spring cleaning and then here we are, it is Thursday already!  Well, we have officially started the Easter season this week so it is time to show off an Easter project.  

I saw something very similar to this over at Jeanne d'Arc Living .  Their eggs were covered in vintage newspaper.  I had some vintage sheet music that I found thrifting ( a stack of it for $7).  I thought it would be nice so that is what I used.  

Supplies needed for this project:

vintage sheet music

styrofoam eggs

Mod podge

scissors

paintbrush

large button pushpin

Instructions:

• Cut the sheet music out into triangles and quadrilaterals sized to fit the surface of the egg.  (test this out first, some my be way too big)
• Hold the egg form and starting at the top, "paint" with the Mod Podge.
• Apply one piece of sheet music at a time, covering the egg and the top of the sheet music with Mod Podge.  Smoothing it as you go with your fingers.  Bumps don't matter, but smooth what you can.
• Cover the whole surface of the egg fast enough that the Mod Podge doesn't start drying and getting sticky on you.  
• To dry push the finished egg into a push pin with a large button top.  This forms a stand for your drying egg.  
• Let it dry overnight and your done.

Now, I would like to feature some posts that got my attention from last week's Home Sweet Home!
