so i'm feeling VERY uncreative. i've been soaking all my ideas off of pinterest, and it's sapped my creativity.
so here's a no-brainer, low-energy, fun thing to do with all those mardi gras beads that you have all over the place. ashamedly, this isn't my idea, but my mom's, so i'll take her credit. ;)
this month's kiddo kraft - beaded chandelier.

we actually did this at new year's eve to decorate the girls' rooms without having to put up streamers (because they LOVE any occasion to put up streamers - but who doesn't?). i thought this would be particularly fun for my mardi gras parading friends or my dress-up box exploding friends to try this with their kiddos.
all you need is a ceiling fan (turned off, preferably...) and your beaded necklaces. start stringing them up and down the fan blades and hang off the lights if you want for a fun, kid-beautiful chandelier effect.
wha-lah. cheesy, but fun!
the girls haven't taken them down because they like them so much. cheers and happy easy decorating. they livened up our new year, our valentine's day, and every other day in between.
