Brooches for Easter

Just noticed I never shared the Brooches I made last year for the 

Senior Patients at the Senior Living Home.

The little hats I made from the Pom Pom thingies that you sew together to make other neat projects.  Here is a picture of some .  Well I will have to upload one later.  Apparently they are not called what I thought.  HELP....

Here is the type Pen Backs I started with

My husband hated me.  Men have big fingers and he was the nurse that got stuck pinning them on .

I then discovered these.  He said they are so much easier for him and for seniors to work with.

Easter Eggs for Senior Living Home

Well Easter is over with, but memories are not.  

I just wanted to show all of you what I put together for the Seniors at the 

Senior Living Home my hubby works at.

First I didn't have a lot of time because things got busy and I could not for the life of me come up with any ideas.  So after seeing several Brooches posted on our local VarageSale.com I got an idea.

Why not buy Easter Brooches and put them on felt eggs.

Ok next problem.  I needed 35 of them.  BUT I didn't want to spend $35 or more for brooches.  So I spoke with the lady told her what I was going to do with them and asked if she could maybe help out.  I told her I was not asking for a free hand out.  But could she give me a really good deal.

She wrote back she didn't have 35 Easter brooches.  I told her that was fine I could pick out others too and put them on an Easter Egg.  So we made a deal.  35 brooches for $16.  

I didn't take pictures of any of the brooches before putting them on the eggs.  But after putting a couple on eggs I decided plain eggs just would not work.  Especially for brooches that were 1" x 1 " in the middle of an Egg that was 3 inches tall.

So I got out my glitter glue.  That was not very funny.  Lots were died up or wanted to shoot out all the watery glue.  I did find that glitter glue by Rangers called Stickles.

All worked better than any of the other glues that I had.  So couple days ago I went on Amazon and ordered all the colors I could get.  GRINNING.

Here are the Easter Brooches.
