Easter Tray

Just wanted to share the new tray I put together from Easter.  The tray used to be on my cabinets as part of my kitchen decor.  When I changed a few things, I was glad I could reuse the tray.  I placed the apothecary jars filled with eggs, the bunny, the small bird nest, and the wreath in the tray.  I filled the empty tray space with left over eggs.  I had everything and just put it together in a new way!  So glad I went to the accessory class at Osmond.  It gave me some great ideas!

Great Easter Decor Ideas

One of my favorite tips learned from the accessory class at Osmond's was to incorporate a little vignette for the holiday into your everyday decor. I love my everyday mantel decorations, so I just added the bunny, the two eggs, and ball. The bunny is in the colors of my basement decor, and I love the green egg that looks like an artichoke! I found these at TaiPan and loved how they add just a touch of Easter to the downstairs.

 

Similarly, I love how Kallee added this to her mantel. You don't have to spend a lot or buy a ton of items to add a touch of the holidays in your home.



 

Love Kallee's tray for Easter. Look for bargains now and at Easter clearance sales to create a similar look. The variety is great!

Fun Find: Jars of Eggs

I saw these jars at TaiPan and had to have them.  The jars were $17, and $15 but I can use them year round for anything, so I justified the expense. The bigger eggs were $2.97 for 6 and the little eggs were $2.97 for about 15.  I love how they look filled to the brim with eggs.  I bought bolts of ribbon in pastel colors for $3.97 each and tied coordinating bows.

 With the extra eggs, I filled glasses for a place setting.  The placemats came from TaiPan last year.

I bought this bird and wreath from TaiPan  and needed some extra height, so I put him on a cake plate.  I made this cake plate from a plate and bowl from TaiPan for $6.  Just glue the upside down bowl to the bottom of the plate with epoxy glue.

Loved this bunny from TaiPan.  He was $19.99, but I used the 25% off coupon that comes in the Sunday paper.  Happy hunting for these Easter treasures!
