Easy DIY Spring Easter Egg Wreath Tutorial



I have had this wintery wreath on my door since well, winter. I figured, I had better update it, but didn't have the time.  First, I tucked the berries and pinecones behind the wreath. I grabbed this egg garland I already had and tied it onto the wreath with twine and craft pearls to tame the pine needles back, and then I tucked some fake flowers in there. I think it turned out really cute! It took less than 10 minutes, required absolutely zero sewing or gluing, and I can take it apart in minutes if I want to reuse the materials again.


Recycling holiday crafts and supplies is the best!



You can also take a figurine, like my adorable little bunny here, and glue or wire it down. So, Easter is tomorrow... you have *plenty* of time to do something like this!


Also, tonight we will be planting a magical Easter jellybean garden, along with many other pinterest inspired families. In the morning, lollipops or peeps should arise in their place... hopefully these beans work!

Sweet Treats: A Mad Tea Party, 2011

 Welcome to my Mad Tea Party! My party last year was so much fun, I had to host another. 


 My Valentines paper heart garland came out to visit. Along with a few old frames and shutters.

 Little lemon muffins topped with chocolate frosting, polka dot sprinkles and maraschino cherries...
my 3 year old pilfered all but two of them.


 


  Fancy that, a colorful bag of marshmallow stars, and a few clock gears
would serve as the cake's decoration.  

 Mr. Rabbit, who made his debut this year on the Easter mantel, is mighty jaunty in his WWII medal.
 
 These roses were the perfect pinky shade of coral, with such large, open blooms.
I simply couldn't resist. If no one else will buy you flowers, I dare say, buy your own.




I hope your blog visit was sweet and that you stay a while and visit often. 
If you held a tea party, please link your party in the comments. Let next year's preparations begin!

Of Bunnies and Women


Bunnies are not exclusively Easter related. I tried to find "holiday neutral" ones that pulled at my heart strings, though it was admittedly tough to narrow down all of the sweetness. I love them all and would have a rabbit menagerie if I could! The great thing about little figurines and pieces of art, is they can be easily placed in little vingettes around your home, for a simple touch of quirkiness in a place that could use some character without overloading it. Which is your favorite? Do you prefer vintage or handmade? Art or function?
