Peeps Wreath

MADE BY ME FOR MONDAY!!!

Wow!  I can't believe it is almost 1:00 PM and I am just now getting around to posting!  It has been a CRAZY morning!  I am a little behind on life because I spent the weekend with my gal pals at a Scrapbook Expo.  It was a WONDERFUL weekend of good times, but now I am back to reality and trying to catch up on life!!!

This week I am going to share my April wreath.  Remember how I said I wanted to do a new wreath every month?  Well, so far, so good.  Want to see my other wreaths so far this year?  JANUARY WREATH, FEBRUARY WREATH, MARCH WREATH.  Click on the months you want to see and it will link you over to the posts :)  Which one is your favorite???

Ready to see my April wreath???
Hanging with my Peeps ;)

I started out by buying 3 boxes of Peeps.  I let them sit on the tray for a few days to get hard.  Then at the Dollar Store, I found the three wreaths.  The total cost for this wreath was under $5.  LOVE THAT!!!

I don't know why, but I found this a bit disturbing. . .I could actually add hot glue to the back of the hard Peeps, and it didn't melt them.  The whole time I was thinking, "And I actually eat these?  They don't even melt with HOT glue!  How does my body digest them?"  :)

VOILA!  My finished Peeps wreath! 




I will be PARTYING HERE this week!  Come back and join my parties too!  Wandering Wednesday Blog Hop, Thrilling Thursday Linky Party, and Fun w/Food Friday Linky Party.

Those are so cute! It is a little gross that the hot glue didn't do anything to them, but Peeps'll still be on my Easter shopping list. You can't do Easter without them. Thanks for sharing.

I love how much length of the door a triple wreath takes up. Nice work.

LOL, I came over to check this out just because of the title! :] It's super cute... very Easter-y!

Jill said...

They look sooo cute! I don't think we have 'peeps' here in Australia, but it is a bit worrying that you eat something that doesn't get melted by hot glue!! Best not to think about it too much!! :)

Thanks for linking to a Round Tuit!
Hope you have a great weekend!
