Easter: Inspiration
Williams-Sonoma Cookware never fails to inspire me around the holidays.
Easter: Inspiration
These adorable papier-mache eggs would be a beautiful addition to the Easter basket. Most of our eggs are plastic, I’ll be honest, but sometimes I stick something special in our kids’ baskets to be a keepsake. I was more into special little things like this with our girls, however. Unless these eggs had spideman printed on them, our son wouldn’t even care.

What a cute bunny pan! If I was into baking I’d make bunny cakes for sure.

You could make this yourself. A nest wreath with candies in the middle — easy centerpiece.

Ok, now, I adore those straw bunnies, birds and chicks. I must have them! They are so life-like. They’d be adorable perched on the table or basically anywhere. I love them.

The Easter Egg tree is a seasonal tradition in many European countries. You could make this with branches from outside.
Easter: Inspiration
These little chicks are just the fluffiest cutest little sweetie chicks ever. These are another good example of the kinds of little surprises I always loved sticking in plastic eggs to surprise my girls when they were little.

Super easy decor. Love the eggs around a pillar candle.

Of course, baking sugar cookies in fun Easter shapes would make the holiday special.

    These are all so beautiful and inspiring Melissa! I love the idea of using a nest and filling it with chocolate eggs! The display would look like an empty nest on my table though…. hehehe!

    I went to your link for Williams and Sonoma….one of my favorite ideas was putting Easter eggs around the base of a pillar candle in the glass candle holder….
    I LOVE your blog…..I can spend hours looking around and be ing inspired!

    Well, now you’ve gone and done it. I’ve managed to stay OUT of Williams Sonoma because of my habit of buying $30 cake pans that can only be used once a year!

    Oh, the bunny pan is calling to me.

    I’m completely stealing your idea of putting a cute little chick in an Easter egg and claiming it as my own! My girls will love it. Thanks for the tip!

    Oh, what lovely ideas! I must try the wreath in the nest with robin’s egg candies — too cute! On someone else’s blog I saw moss-covered eggs wrapped in brown satin ribbons. I think they may have been from Ballard. They were fabulous! Thanks for the inspiration, Melissa. :)

    Hi Melissa…your easter pictures are gorgeous…when my boys were younger and we lived in Germany, we used to buy some lovely eggs..especially the paper mache ones, instead of baskets and fill them with little ones.

    What wonderfully cute ideas!! Love the blue chocolate eggs in the nest; love the straw animals; and a clever idea with the eggs in the candle thing—I have one of those with beautiful colored stones from a lake in montana…..but the eggs are a nice touch.

    Hey bff Melissa!

    It was great to hear from you. I’ve been a commenting slacker in the worst way of late, but I’ve done plenty of lurking…and this is always a daily stop for me…I marvel at your creative sensibilities, incredible taste, helpful advice…and your sense of fun!!! Love the Easter goodies…I would dearly love to decorate for every holiday…perhaps I’ll be able get at least a little spring-fling-thing happenin’ at my place…because as usual, I’m inspired when I come here!

    All is GREAT with me BTW…just keeping busy with lots of thrifting at the moment…but alas not near enough creating. Hope to strikethat balance a little here soon.

    Take care!

    Hugs and blessings,
    Becky S.

    Hi Melissa, I usually have an egg tree at Easter but not this year. But you have inspired me to do something else with eggs. I took the brain quiz and didn’t score 10 or more in any category. Wonder what that means? LOL

    Hello,
    Thank you for publishing these beautiful photos, especially those papier-mache eggs. I haven’t seen them anywhere in years. They are lovely.
    (Do stop by the Happy Turtle, if you can; we are on national press. I am now heading to check Washington Post. Congratulations!)
