We are all changing the way we live in light of this crazy virus.  For me, many of my holiday traditions were bypassed this year as I tried to be safe and ‘flatten the curve’ best I could.  Because of it, I haven’t been to a grocery store in over a month and many of my pre-Easter traditions that revolved around food were eliminated for 2020.

Some for the better…I really never needed to eat my body weight in Cadbury eggs – let’s be real!  But, I definitely missed my egg dyeing!  If you follow the blog, you know I come up with a theme each year for my Easter eggs.  You may remember the constellation theme, succulent theme, or picnic theme…to name a few.  If I had the opportunity to purchase some eggs this year, I know I would have done a Schitt’s Creek theme for my decorated eggs, especially since the show just aired its finale episode.  I could have made an egg for each of the characters on this fabulous television show – with their name on it.  I could have decorated one with crows…made one with the motel sign…one with a rose…etc., etc.

The other day, feeling down about missing a year of egg decorating, I ended up finding something else to decorate.  I started in on Christmas tree ornaments!  I know, I know…April is kind of early for Christmas thoughts!  But, crazier things are happening all around me!

I started my ornament creations with a Schitt’s Creek theme – using three of my favorite quotes from the show.  This is a super easy DIY project!  For my ornaments, I used wood slices.  I simply sanded them smooth and painted one side black.  I lettered a phrase on each ornament with a permanent oil-based gold paint pen and added a coordinating ribbon.

My Schitt’s Creek ornament collection is complete!  A tribute to a wonderful show!  I plan on continuing with a black and white theme and create a few more collections of ornaments!

Thanks for stopping by!  Stop back and see what the next collection of ornaments may be!

Remember to take pleasure in simple things, Jackie
