Happy Tuesday, friends! Thanks for your sweet comments on my daughter’s Polka Dot Art Party…it’s crazy to think half of her birthdays have been documented on this wee blog. With the kids getting older, it seems our weekends are even busier, so I’ve had to simplify life in a lot of areas. I admitted to not doing it all in this post, but after this big birthday, I’ve found it easier to do even less.
Normally, I’d have our Easter table set and ready to show you, but with Easter only days away, I don’t know if we’ll even have a table this year! And that’s okay…because celebrating the day together is what counts. That could be at a fancy brunch, or a McDonald’s picnic…both sound pretty heavenly to me. Or who knows, maybe I’ll find myself with some free time and I’ll whip up something at home….in which case, I’ve rounded up some fresh inspiration.
You don’t have to spend a bunch of time and money to create a gorgeous table…here are some simple projects to set the stage. Hot-glue inexpensive grocery store blooms to branches from your yard for a statement centerpiece.
The kids and I have Friday off, and I’m planning on some fun egg crafts. I love the conversations that pop up when we’re all at the table working on projects together.
The rainbow layer cake from Babygirl’s birthday a few years ago was such a hit at our house, I love the idea of adapting it for holidays…like this pink ombre version.
That is a ton of gorgeous inspiration. WE don't have a single thing going on for Eater. Eeek. We have the same issue with R's birthday the week after so I am always focused on that. This year is flying by for sure!
All such beautiful inspiration! My sister is having Easter this year and I plan to make my mom's traditional homemade hot cross buns! I look forward to relaxing and just enjoying a nice day spent with family.
Love that bunny cake! I don't think we are entertaining for Easter this year, but we did have a Passover dinner party on Monday and I've got those pictures to share tomorrow. 🙂
We are all sick this year. I will be good to just make a meal! But maybe we can do a little sonething since we are all home sick! A little project to pull us away from the couch will be just the trick!
How gorgeous!!!! I love the grass eggs. It's an awesome idea.

Love the plates on that fifth image down. What a beautiful setup!
I haven't decorated my table for Easter either. It seems like everything is sneaking up on me this year. Love those table ideas though!
I've just been thinking about my table(s), and that third photo is calling my name! Thanks for the great ideas!
