Happy Easter!! I ended up giving up a few things for Lent, candy being one of them, so I was ecstatic to be able to enjoy one of my favorite seasonal treats first thing this morning. The Cadbury Egg. And when I say this morning, I mean it was a little appetizer at 7:30am when I woke up.
There seems to be a love it or hate it relationship with these guys, so I'm sure some of you feel me and others don't get the obsession. I'm not a fan of Red Vines, so there you go...
I was trying to figure out a cute way to incorporate these into my outfit, so I came up with a cute little accessory...
I began by unwrapping my treat...
...and completely removed the egg without ripping any of the foil.
I took a quarter, picked an area of the foil I wanted to show...
...and began to wrap!
I had my Cadbury disk all ready to turn it into a ring!! I took a ponytail holder, and affixed the little metal part of the band to the foil with a little hot glue and then covered it with a little bit of fabric to keep in place.
Wrapped the band around my finger a few times (I did it too tight for the first go and then wrapped it just 3 times so my fingers could breathe) and had my Easter bling!! I was inspired by this link on Yahoo Green (thanks Jennie K for posting it on Facebook!) and continued to think candy!!
We went to Aroma Cafe in Studio City (aka the val) and got lemonades, sammies, and scrambles for our Easter brunch!!
Of course I sat next to my brother so I could steal bites of his rosemary potatoes :)
Hope everyone had a lovely weekend and those celebrating Easter, hope it was fantastic!!
