Simple & natural Easter details will make your holiday decorating a snap! Keeping it easy is always a bonus but using natural materials can be kind to a budget and they look charming too! I’d love to share some sweet springtime decor that isn’t over-the-top but will still bring on plenty of cheerful vibes! A little DIYing that anyone can do plus some decor inspiration that is literally effortless! So here’s a tiny roundup of what’s decorating my home this year. I hope you enjoy it!
Planning a simple Easter table will help take the stress out of your celebration! You don’t need expensive linens or decorations to create a special, holiday tabletop, but natural, springtime elements can help! My table this year will be full of goodies that bring the outdoors in! Nests, blooms, and a bunny or two come together to make my very minimal table look festive. And some easy DIY projects add little details for this special occasion! If you’re entertaining a crowd or just a few family members, I hope you find some simple ideas that will work for you! Easter is just around the corner…
Now that St. Patrick’s Day festivities have come to an end, i can finally concentrate on spring and Easter decorations! Not that I don’t LOVE our Irish traditions but it seemed a little strange to decorate for both at the same time…even though I did it anyway! But now there’s only one holiday and new season to celebrate and I always look forward to the fresh change of color and natural elements that I add to my home! And since Easter is only a little over a week away, some simple decorations are about all I can muster! Fortunately, it can be really easy and inexpensive to decorate for spring! Fresh flowers are abundant in every supermarket (and soon in the gardens!), buds are beginning to pop on the blooming bushes & trees, and of course, Easter eggs and candy are everywhere…all wonderful options for bringing springtime into my home! Today I’d like to share some quick and simple ideas…
One of the things I love most is impromptu gatherings! It seems like as the kids grow it actually gets harder and harder to spend time with people we love…so when a spur-of-the-moment get together actually works for everyone involved–it feels like a great accomplishment! It seems as though the phrase “we should get together soon” is said WAY too often to WAY too many of our friends. No fault of anyone…it just happens to be the way of life right now for so many of us juggling busy schedules! But this weekend was fabulously different when a last minute suggestion turned into an actuality! We spent a casual evening of catching up with friends on all the goings on of family, work, school and everything else we could remember to talk about! And the great thing about this kind of gathering was that everyone brought food or beverage making it simple for all! AND not only was I lucky to be able to see my friends but to have them in our home…allowing me to throw together some last-minute decorations which you know I love to do! I’ve been wishing for springtime for several weeks now…and even though it was snowing that day, I decided to go for an Easter inspired theme! I had also been working on some holiday crafts recently…so I decided to use some of those whimsical creations on my appetizer table! I love to share how easy it is to scour the house for things that can make a fabulous display without spending a penny…or maybe only a few pennies! But the point is that many times you can come up with plenty of goodies to make a pretty appetizer table…even if it is at the last-minute! Let me share with you how I dressed up the tabletop
