Our Easter Blessing

Hope you all had a blessed Easter.

Our family was surely blessed.

My niece Carrie, had a beautiful baby boy on Easter Sunday, weighing over 9 lbs.

Such a blessing during all the suffering and deaths in our country from the Covid-19 virus.

Heartbreaking.

Me and my sister planned a beautiful baby shower for Carrie.

We planned every detail for months, wanting it to be something really special for her.

After all was in place we unfortunately, only a week before the event, had to postpone the shower due to the social distancing and for the safety of everyone.

We were all disappointed, but when this is all over we will have the shower for Carrie and baby Josh, and it will be just as special.

I needed a tray to serve coffee with cake to our guests, so I decided to make a tray from a thrift store frame.

Took the frame apart and of course, I painted it white.

Printed out old childhood photos of me, my sister, and brother, and a few of my son.

Made a collage on the frame backing with all the photos.

Secured the photos with a bit of glue and added some gold handles to the tray.

Assembled the back of the tray to finish.

Perfect for serving coffee.

My tray is all about family.

I’m sentimental, and mushy, and loving, so when I can use old photos, you know I do!

Love this project so much.

Costing very little to make, but so valuable to me.

Would make a lovely Mother’s Day gift.

Love you all, take care.

Blessings.
