Sunday Pins

I’ve been thinking about Easter quite a bit this week. There’s a lot I want to make this year. But it all depends on where we are going. With two families and one two-year old, holidays can be tricky. We often have to celebrate two weeks in a row. My husband has two siblings that live in Texas and I’m the first-born so everyone wants to have Ava. And then we often end up at my aunt’s house if we’re doing my side of the family and she’s a Martha Stewart type so I sometimes don’t bother doing anything if that’s the case. But here are my inspirational Easter pins.

I won’t lie to you. I make an awesome deviled egg. They get devoured every time. But I hadn’t thought about using dyed eggs before. I can’t understand why. It seems like a no-brainer. So at the very least I’ll be making these. I have a great egg platter that I am in love with.

This was done with crayons on still hot boiled eggs. How easy is that? And they look really cute. Here’s the tutorial that came linked with the egg: http://www.cometogetherkids.com/2011/04/melted-crayon-easter-eggs.html I did something similar at Halloween and melted crayons over pumpkins. It was time-consuming, but the end result was pretty cool.

I gave up sweets for lent this year, so I will definitely be partaking in something delicious on Easter. I’m actually going to try to stay off the sweets after that because it was embarrassing difficult to do. But I am definitely having Easter cake. The “nest” on this cake is actually made from chocolate shavings.

The might be the cutest placeholder ever. There is no tutorial linked with this, but it looks fairly simple. Clothespins, q-tips and construction paper. Voila.

And if someone do me a solid and bring me this bunny immediately, I would really appreciate it. Really.
