Join me today as we spend some time outside and then head indoors to Decoupage faux eggs. While Crafting I will share with you my "somewhat embarrassing" Grocery Store Story. Has this ever happened to you?

Hello Carla 🐰🐰 you have a calm way about yourself which I always enjoy when you show how to make a DIY. Great 👍 job with your egg presentation, thank you. It was 65 degrees here today and I took advantage of doing yard work, as you also shown in today's video. Your mascara story was sooo funny, thanks for the laughs 😃 😀 I think we all get those embarrassing moments at times. Next Sunday we change the clocks, longer brightness in the evenings. Hope you have an excellent week 🐰🌷🌷☮ Blessings

[@mynewenglandstory]

Thank you Anne Marie. It feels so good to get outside, doesn't it? You have a beautiful week also!

[@marieschmidt9416]

Good humorous, embarrassing anecdote....well told! Thank you for sharing. We need that, especially this time of year. And I love your lamb/eggs display.

[@mynewenglandstory]

Thank you Marie.

[@christinecook377]

You are such a sweet person, even with mascara all over! The eggs are so lovely, thank you for sharing.

[@mynewenglandstory]

Awww, thank you Christine. 😊

[@user-rp6bb2fz6o]

The finished eggs look really pretty. Thanks for sharing. I also look forward to what you are doing and where you are visiting in New England.

[@mynewenglandstory]

Thank you!

[@joliz1234]

Hi Carla, love the color of your house and the wreath looked real pretty on the door. I think we have all had makeup disasters and can laugh about it later but at the time, you just want to hide. Enjoyed watching you crafting the eggs. They turned out real pretty.❤

[@mynewenglandstory]

Thank you! 😊

[@cynthiasirois8295]

Carla what a funny story .....be assured that if I see you out and about and anything about your makeup is awry, I will let you know immediately! I have done lots of decoupage projects and it's always such a fun and relaxing craft to do ....and the napkins that are out there these days are just so beautiful. Thank you for another nice video and see you next week.🌺🌺💕💕🌷🌷

[@mynewenglandstory]

Oh I knew I could count on you Cynthia! lol. Enjoy your week also!!!

[@brendagalligan7891]

I love the napkin patterns you chose & how you displayed them. That lamb is precious! Would you share where you bought him? I love lambs & sheep & have collected a few. I've never seen that one before. Happy almost Spring & Easter! 🐑🥚🌷🌞

[@mynewenglandstory]

Thank you Brenda. I love the little lamb also and found him last year at a Consignment Store so I'm not sure where he would have come from originally. I don't think he's very old though. Happy Easter!

[@margaretfinney6546]

Oh Carla, that cracked me up, loved the way you told the story, how you thought everyone was so nice and smiling.🤣🤣 Another great demonstration on how to do the eggs, again, it takes a lot of your patience to do. They look so pretty in the bowl.

[@mynewenglandstory]

Thank you! 😊

[@katescott8130]

thanks Carla for showing how you decoupage the eggs, good tips!

[@mynewenglandstory]

Thanks for watching!

[@kareemahamdy1223]

Hi Carla, love your Spring wreath.....I've just swapped mine over this weekend. Had a little chuckle at your story. I would have let you know for sure as I would want someone to tell me 😅Your decoupage eggs look so pretty. I enjoy seeing what crafts you do. Have a great week from Manchester, UK 🇬🇧 xx

[@mynewenglandstory]

I appreciate that Kareema.☺️. Enjoy your week also!

[@barbaracarlson1331]

I am motivated to do more eggs! I have collected and made eggs of various kinds through the years. Love eggs! I have collected egg cups too. One favorite one is a blown ostrich egg I found at a spring craft show. I just added a gorgeous silk flower stem around it and put it in an antique stemmed bowl. Actually it is out year round. Thanks for sharing! ❤❤❤

[@mynewenglandstory]

Oh wow, it sounds like you have quite a beautiful collection Barbara. That sounds like a wonderful way to display it!

[@patriciacinea3097]

Well, at least its "meteorological Spring!" Fun craft! Nicely displayed.

[@mynewenglandstory]

Thank you Patricia!

[@marymarks7046]

Oh my gosh, I would have come up to you and mention to you to check your eyes and handed you a makeup wipe packet. I would laugh at myself. I think I need to get the items to assemble those decor eggs! Thanks for sharing!

[@mynewenglandstory]

Oh thank you Mary!!!! 😂

[@lianeabeyta4515]

Oh my gosh... I don't think you could have found a better bowl! Matches the egg colors perfectly. I collect blue and white Spode and Liberty Blue dishes... so will be on the lookout for blue and white napkins. Mine will go on a tarnished silver destel dish much like yours.Tarnished silver is my other obsession. The mascara story feels so much like when I get back in my car and notice lipstick on my teeth!!!!!!!!! I would just say to someone.. Since I would hope someone would tell me, I need to tell you your mascara has run. I did have a certain mascara that never seemed to dry... thankfully I would notice before leaving the house. After 3 uses, I ended up throwing it out.

[@mynewenglandstory]

Liane, I did see some beautiful blue and white napkins at Home Goods. I'm sure you could find some online also. I have tried so many different mascaras, regular and waterproof and just have issues....worse in the Summer. Oh well, I guess it allows me to entertain people. lol. Have a great week!

[@PamArganbright-rv1yf]

Hi Carla, Love your DIY & display with the cute lamb!!! I had a chuckle, too! Those embarassing moments have also touched me! May your week be filled with blessings! Thank you for video.

[@mynewenglandstory]

Thank you for watching Pam. 😊

[@Melinda_B62]

I love the results of your work - very precious!

[@marias5118]

Hi Carla, love the beautiful eggs you decoupaged and the way you displed them with the little lamb. Your funny little story made me laugh too as I've had a similar experience. Your Spring wreath looks beautiful, so simple and elegant❤

[@mynewenglandstory]

Thank you so much Maria!

[@newenglandfineliving]

I adore the eggs!!!!!

[@mynewenglandstory]

Thank you!

[@betsyhills7845]

I have the same wreath on my door ! Decorated eggs are a fun spring project. Great job! Sorry for your embarrassing moment! But think about all the smiles on everyone’s face 😃

[@mynewenglandstory]

Yes, true Betsy! We HAVE to laugh at ourselves. Have a great week!

[@karenbrewer5864]

The eggs turned out so pretty. I haven’t decoupaged in years but now you’ve got me wanting to try it again. Loved the way you displayed them with the sweet lamb. Funny story. That sounds like something I would do. Thanks! 🐇🥕🐰🐣

[@mynewenglandstory]

Thanks Karen. It's been years for me too, but I found it quite fun!

[@katescott8130]

Carla better to laugh at yourself! Sounds like something that would happen to me.

[@mynewenglandstory]

So true Kate! LOL

[@malissathornton1389]

Just precious! I may try this!

[@mynewenglandstory]

You should!

[@thomaswiegand7348]

Yrs ago I saw a woman from church that I did not really know. We exchanged a "Hi" and I smiled because she filled in her eyebrows with a blue pencil instead of a brown one!

[@mynewenglandstory]

OMG.....LOL!!!!

[@user-qz1qn6vj9z]

Carla I love your mascara story....I have always called them my I love Lucy moments and I have had quite a few.

[@mynewenglandstory]

@@user-qz1qn6vj9zLOL….love it!

[@vickieatkins4760]

Hi Carla, loved this video- the wreath, eggs & mascara story. One funny but embarrassing story of mine: So many years ago, one Sunday at church, I bent down to pick up my baby from the car and as I scooped her up I accidently scooped the front of my dress... so yes my front legs were showing almost up to my undies! And in I walked looking for a place to sit until a kind woman whispered in my ear of my dilemma. I was so embarrassed I wanted to run out! I'm glad we can look back and laugh at ourselves... 🤭 Have a great week!

[@mynewenglandstory]

Oh my gosh Vickie, how embarrassing but you HAVE to laugh! Thanks for sharing. 😊💕

[@ginahaynes5596]

Blessing’s from Bethlehem, New Hampshire! I will try this project for sure! ❤

[@mynewenglandstory]

Wonderful….have fun!

[@sallyramaker1292]

Lovely video Carla, I always enjoy your back ground music. The eggs are gorgeous and appealing to the eye. Next waiting for Linda to post her video. How Lucky you both are to be Dear Friends. Thank you for inviting all of us into your New England Life. Sally in ND living on 22 acres of Land.....

[@mynewenglandstory]

Yes, I’m lucky to have Linda as a friend for sure. Living on 22 acres sounds wonderful…..I miss having all of our animals. Enjoy your week!

[@lindahull3974]

I don’t shop at Hobby Lobby, but the eggs can be found at Michael’s. Great craft, Carla. I’ve done this on candles for various holidays.

[@lisawfriday]

Not a HL shopper either.

[@mynewenglandstory]

Great idea!!

[@julietpackard9236]

I am of the belief that you always tell someone if they have something on their face, in their teeth, or in their hair! I would want to know! My husband, on the other hand, has let me walk around for hours with my makeup amiss, claiming he didn’t notice 😂 but honestly I actually don’t think men notice 😅 oh well! It’s a good laugh!

[@mynewenglandstory]

Lol, yes we definitely need to stick together and let each other know. Have a great week!

[@joannpergakis4183]

Your story was so cute How about lipstick on your teeth , lol This is a beautiful craft Hobby lobby is closed today but I will go tomorrow Thank you for sharing I used to cut tge napkins in pieces , lol now this is so much easier Thank you Looks so beautiful in that bowl

[@mynewenglandstory]

That would be another one! Lol. Have fun with the eggs. 😊

[@antoniaswift3995]

Dear Carla. Been there, done that!!!!🙃

[@mynewenglandstory]

😂

[@jean2927]

Hi Carla how lovely to see your spring approaching back yard, the gorgeous blue sky. I did like very much your pretty wreath & the colours of the bow complimented the sky! Nice craft project & the end result of the eggs makes for a colourful display. Funny story about your eye make-up it did make me chuckle, how unaware we are of ourselves sometimes! My embarrassing experience was in my local bank, chatting away to the young male assistant who seemed to have a constant smile on his face all through our conversation, later on I realised the buttons on my blouse were undone a little more than I would have worn if you get my meaning…. Oh dear, embarrassing! 😂 … Great video!

[@mynewenglandstory]

OMG that story gave me a chuckle!! Have a beautiful week Jean!

[@carolhanrahan6249]

Oh Carla, horrible camera angle!! I do alot of mod podge, but the gals that don't didn't get much of a view of what you was doing. I watch all of your videos, so not being mean, just wanted to give you my perspective of showing a fun craft.

[@mynewenglandstory]

Unfortunately I caught that too late which is why I moved it right in front of me hoping that helped.

[@carolhanrahan6249]

I figured you hadn' noticed . I only mention this for your future crafts. I do enjoy your KZbin videos, and don't want you to think I was being mean. You & Linda are my favorite east coast go to videos. Have a nice day.😊
