I saw this post and knew that I wanted to make a few for the top of our piano.
Quiet, crafting and candlelight. Languages of my heart. Crafting is something I love doing, but just haven't felt up to it. I needed to reserve my energy for the mandatory daily duties. This year, I am intentionally trying to change that and find simple ways to bring crafting back to life and in ways that bring meaning.
These little eggs sang Springtime and hymns came to heart. I had bought a packet of hymnal pages that matched our hymnals that we use for homeschool. I wasn't sure what I would use them for at the time, but when I saw these decoupaged eggs, I knew that I could do this.
I love how they looked displayed on our piano for Spring. They are ivory colored pages and added such a vintage touch that I had hoped. The beauty behind them is that they are wrapped in words of worship. They brought meaning to the craft and some special quiet time. I did discover that using the original hymn pages, made them not smooth out very easily because of the thick paper, but I love how they turned out, lumpy and all!
