Easter Table DIY


 So this year I wanted to go all out and have some whimsy with my casual farm table in my sunroom. I wanted to decorate an Easter table that would be fun and full of different textures and color. 


Pictured here I have eggs and little white bunnies in a small galvanized tin tub, sitting in the kitchen. 
I have an overall casual feel to the decorations with a little garden feel to the decor. 


Here you can see that I have a couple of these next to each other. They are so cute and festive.


Here you will find a cast iron bunny sitting on my farm table with little wrapped candies.

 

I am almost done with decorating my Easter table, I simply love where it's going. I have been working on it for a few days now and feel like it's almost there. I started by putting down some burlap and then I added some shiny champagne fabric along with garland of natural materials to add the textures I was looking for. I then added moss place mats under round wicker place mats for that garden feel. Adding the ceramic bunnies was a must along with garden urns filled with plants, greenery and  moss. The easter garden theme is all unfolding and I am loving it. I will post more pictures as we get closer to our special Easter day.

A simple tutorial on making Napkin Rings!


So my fun creative artsy group that I belong to is called the Lovelies. We get together weekly for a light lunch and a fun project. At times we recycle, restyle and renew. Whatever the project, we have a blast. The miracle of this group (8 of us) is that we have been creating for about 2 years now with absolutely no issues. It all works, we all get along, inspire eachother and just simply flourish with creativity, friendship and true honesty to be ourselves. So here is a quick and easy project we worked on this week. It's a really cute napkin ring that can be made in minutes. 
You will need:
Wire, old or new. This wire was purchased at a floral shop, it is easily bendable and easy to cut.
Wire cutters
Silk Flowers
Hot glue gun/ extra glue


Silk Orchids

Playing, creates new ideas and different uses for the wire. As pictured here wrapped around a vase can create abit of whimsy on what was a simple glass vase.

Step 1. Wind the wire around a form like a plastic bottle, a rolling pin etc...
We added a curly cue at both ends.

Step 2. Snip the silk flowers from the stems, and hot glue in place.
Voila! It's that simple and great for your spring and summer tables. I love this for Easter.
