More tasteful Easter decor

 

You know, you only encourage me to offer more of the same when you leave as many comments as you did yesterday. So: more objects from the big box of Easter stuff. Today we'll start out with cute, move to less cute, and then back (I hope) to cute again. I do like these pompom chicks. I might upgrade the bonnets and bows, or not. I'm not touching their hair, though. I like their hair.

 

These are sort-of cute, although I'm not crazy about wooden beads and the red and green color scheme. Also, the quality control inspector must have been dozing when the bunny on the right came off the line.

 

These remind me of Donald Duck's three naughty nephews. I'm trying to think of something nice to say about them. I'm not having a lot of luck.

 

We're circling back to cute again. Although I'm not mad about wood, I like the simplicity of these little birds. Their little flower hats are adorable.

   

They inspired these, which are made out of spun cotton balls.

 

Spun cotton balls are just about my favorite thing ever these days.

     

I also found taking pictures of them quite enjoyable. Though I have every confidence you can figure out how to make these without a lot of input from me, I did put a couple of kits in Etsy. And if you haven't already, make sure you leave a comment here for the box of springtime goodies giveaway!

Love the chicks on the spools, sooo stinking cute!

I think the ones in the second photo are totally woodsy cute.

BTW, I do not think you should be ashamed.at.all. about being judgmental. We all do it, its only a matter of who is honest about it! LOL

I never heard of spun cotton balls. I thought you painted the wood beads! Those Chicks on Spools are cotton-pickin' adorable!

The chicks on spools are the cutest! I've always had a fondness for pompom chicks with wire feet - we always had a fresh set on our easter baskets.

I love the chicks with the hair and bonnets. The little wooden chicks with flower hats are cute, too. The ones you made with the spun cotton balls are the very best!

I love the cotton ball chickies on the spools the best! Do you mean you pick another winner? (almost faints...) Though I think I am going to imitate your cotton ball chickens anyway! If I have time. As always I have lots and lots of plans.

You know, lately, I've been going through boxes of pictures and stuff I've saved over the years (thank you, Facebook) and I found a little pom pom bunny. He's cute but I only wish he had hair like these chicks. (Hey, did you know your comments box has a spell check? Yes! I so need that!)

Too cute! Love the little bird on the spool.

Well, those little birds on their spool perches are totally adorable!

That is a bottomless box of Easter dear! I have never seen easter with plain wooden balls like that. Those whiskers? on the bunnies in the second photo resemble a moustache...an unusual trait in an Easter bunny!

[susan]

Oh, the bonnets are so cute as they are (didn't Judy Garland wear a striped bonnet in Easter Parade? - I gotta pull out my video soon). Ha, ha, I thought those were mustaches on the Christmas bunnies. The hippie chicks/ducks are cute, too...dressed in the Mod era.
The little birds on spools are way-cute...I'm crazy about cute bluebirds.
