Holiday meals are occasions for place cards, but it’s really the last thing most entertainers think they have time for. But these Easter Egg place cards redefine the quick and easy craft.
All you need is eggs, washi tape, and toothpicks. (For the really thin washi tape, check out the Little B options. So beautiful!)

After Easter, do you end up with tons of plastic eggs? And mismatched plastic eggs, at that?
Solution: make these cute fuzzy sheep. The body is made from a large plastic egg and the head is a small one.
You can make your own take on this lamp with thin rope, thick rope, jute rope or nylon, and you can coil the rope around almost anything — like a flower pot, a funnel, or a bowl — to get various shapes. For this project, I used a round vase with an inflated balloon in the top, but if you happen to have a glass display cloche sitting around, it would do the job just fine.

We’ve all seen toy rockets made from paper towel tubes, cracker boxes, even shipping tubes!
This project takes advantage of one of every household’s biggest frustrations…lost socks!
Upcycle a plastic bottle and use that lone sock to make a toy that can handle serious outer space play!
