Hello and welcome to the April Pumpkin Spice blog hop! You should have hopped here from Heather’s blog. If not, you might want to start at the beginning of the hop at June’s blog so you don’t miss out on any crafty goodness.
The challenge at the Pumpkin Spice blog this week is EGGS! Have fun, be creative, and incorporate eggs into your crafting project.
For my project, I altered a plastic container to hold chocolate Easter eggs.
I used some pretty papers from the Fancy Pants Time for Spring 6x6 paper pad along with some recycled items. (The plastic container, a chipboard coaster, and the corrugated papers are all recycled) The little banner was cut out of the DP. If you love these papers, you can get them from the Pumpkin Spice Shop for only $4.20.
Here is the the blog hop order in case you get lost along the way:

You did a good job decorating this plastic container, I think it's nice that it also reveals some of the content too. Great idea for recycling! Visiting from MIM.
