I've blogged about a couple of fun Easter projects. Both involve food but they can be used for cute centerpieces or as gifts for Easter guests.

Pearl of 'Pearl's potholders' are my neighbors. They have a whole family of art geniuses and an urban farm in their back yard. Amazing!

Those cans are BEAUTIFUL! You amaze me how you have been able to keep it going with the new babe. My new little was born in Sept and is the worst napper ever and I get nothing done all day!
ReplyDeleteOh and P.S. Your blog design is SO freaking cute! Do you mind sharing how you got the patterned background on there as well as the trim at the top? I'm back to blogging after a long hiatus and I so not computer savy. I really want my blog to look as cute as yours!
my mom always had an easter egg tree. i tried one myself last year and it was so beautiful...made me smile everytime I looked at it. here is a pic:
