Easter Decorating & Entertaining Inspiration

Easter is just a hop or two around the corner and I have been busy planning for the joyous celebration. Dying eggs, planning the hunt and selecting the menu for Sunday brunch are just some of the tasks on my party planning list. Here are some wonderful Easter decorating ideas from Martha Stewart that have inspired me and I thought they just might inspire you too.

And look what I am going to serve… this Potato, Scallion, Goat Cheese Frittata {above} looks fabulous! Thanks Martha for all of the festive ideas for Easter!

Simple Handmade Flower Garland & Chicks!

Last week we experienced a huge rain storm and the kids were going a little crazy inside. So, I decided to have them help me decorate for spring by creating flower garland to hang in a window.

Using pre-cut paper flowers, pastel water colors, pom poms and grosgrain ribbon the kids created some beautiful flowers. 

I was impressed with the different color schemes, textures and patterns. It was a simple project and such a fun, inexpensive way to decorate for spring.

And what better way to celebrate spring than with some baby chicks? You may recall that we’ve been thinking about raising backyard chickens for sometime. The chicken coop hasn’t been built yet, but the chicks have arrived. Their names are Fluffy and Chipmunk. Can you tell which one is which? {wink, wink} We are crossing our fingers they are both hens. A rooster would have to be sent to a farm.

If you have raised chickens , I’d love to hear your advice!

Linking up to Centsational Girl's springtime party too!
