These Oreo Cheesecake Waffle Cones Are So Good
I love anything made with cream cheese. Seriously, it’s make my mouth water, and I have zero self control. So, it wasn’t hard for me to get on the bandwagon with these Oreo Cheesecake Waffle Cones. They are so delicious, and made from scratch. Friends and family will love them year-round. You can use regular Oreos, gluten-free Oreos (if you haven’t tried these, you are missing out), or even sprinkles.

The Cutest DIY Easter Eggs, Ready For Spring Storms
We made DIY easter eggs with beanie hats, and they are the cutest! This no-sew, no-dye, really easy Easter egg tutorial is fun for all ages. The eggs are not edible, so no boiling needed and you can reuse them yearly. The DIY yarn beanie does not require sewing or crocheting of any kind. We made DIY beanie ornaments and wine toppers this winter, so we improvised and made more this Spring.
You may think these are eggs are experiencing some seasonal confusion, but it’s actually quite accurate. We know Spring means snowmelt, new beginnings, sprouting seeds and warmer weather; however, we live in Colorado, so while it may be Spring (thank the Lord), that doesn’t mean the snow is gone for good. It likes to linger and March is often the most snowy month of the year. It is not uncommon to have Easter eggs hunts in the snow or to see a winter jacket over spring dresses. In fact, the weather this week is cold and snowy.
We hope to make some bright eggs with flowers and things that represent all-things-Spring, too. But, if you’re not ready to say goodbye to the snow, you’re looking for a fun craft that doesn’t require dye, or can’t resist that cozy beanie feeling, these DIY easter eggs are for you. These eggs are ready for rain, snow or sunshine – whatever Easter Sunday may bring.
Materials:
- Eggs, plastic (like this)
- yarn (any spring color, but the thicker the better)
- Sharpie (thin tip)
- Pink colored pencil
- Toilet paper roll
- Hot glue gun
- X-acto knife or scissors
Directions:
Step 1: Use scissors or an Xacto knife to cut a toilet paper roll about 1 inch wide. Cut several of these. You need to make the roll a little wider to fit around the circumference of the egg, so we cut one of the rolls, and added it to another one (to make it 1 inch bigger) with hot glue.
Step 2: Cut the yarn about 12 inches long. Fold the yarn in half, loop the “loop end” through the toilet paper roll, and pull the strings through the loop so it creates a knot. Continue this with the yarn until the entire roll is covered. It should look like a squid with long tentacles.
Step 3: Push the “tentacles” all the way back through the inside of the toiler paper roll.
Step 4: Grab the bunch of yarn and tie another small piece of yarn tight around it.
Step 5: Next, cut the yarn ends to make a small pom pom.
Step 6: Add a dab of glue on the eggs (try on the hat first to make sure where you want to glue it) and place the beanie on top. Finally add a cute face with a Sharpie and pink cheeks with the colored pencil.
Oh my goodness, they are so adorable.

Free Schitt’s Creek Wine Labels For A Very Merry Schittsmas
Ok, this is our last Schitt’s Creek post of the year. And, it has to do with wine, so it might even be better than our Schitt’s Creek gift tags. All you need is any bottle of wine, and our FREE Schitt’s Creek labels for an evening of fun and laughter. You can remove the old labels on your favorite bottles of wine, or add these labels right on top. We love to use Astrobrights white sticker paper for these labels!
If your looking for a last-minute gift for friends and neighbors, this is an easy and fun idea! You can even top it with a DIY beanie wine topper, black and white in honor of David and Moira, of course. Thanks to Jenna at Fleur de Lis to creating them.
We hope you find time to laugh this Christmas, find joy in the little things, clink your wine glass with a good girlfriend or two this season, and watch a funny show like Schitt’s Creek before bed.
Merry Christmas!
