Shabby Chic Easter Eggs and a Birdbath {Delightfully Nesting}

I made some additions to my Easter decor this week. I am pretty excited about them.

Here is my new cute little birdbath:





I had been eyeing that birdbath at Michael's for a while and it finally went on sale at 60 percent off! I attempted to make my own nest, but it fell apart-haha. So, I just bought one for $1 at AC Moore. I painted the little wooden eggs blue and then brushed finish on them.

I've been seeing some fabulous decoupage eggs all over the blogsphere and decided to make some of my own. I don't really prefer cutesy Easter decorations, so I wanted to make mine a little shabby chic. I found the perfect paper and some adorable antique-looking brads at Hobby Lobby.
Here is my shabby chic basket of eggs:
