Some Easter Hens!

Posted by   on   in , ,   / 9 comments 

 

We are getting real hens soon, hopefully in the next month or so, but in the mean time I have made a flock of beany hens!


I used this tutorial and made 6 hens, the kids love them and they don't sit on the shelf I put them on for long :)



They were super quick to make, I made all of them in a couple of hours ( I stuffed them with 2/3 stuffing, 1/3  rice) and to tempt you even more they are a great scrap buster for those useless bits of fabric you can't part with, or is that just me....!

Now to attempt a Simnel cake and Easter meringues like they made on the Great British Easter Masterclass the other night!








Linking to some of these fab linky parties!

    These are so cute Alison! They'd be great as doorstops too filled with sand!
