The Easter entrance

Outdoor Easter decoration ideas

From fresh rabbit footprints and sweet chalkboard signs to bucket loads of bunny cuteness right at your doorstep, creating a fun Easter entrance is a cinch. Get the kids on board and ask them how they want to say “Hey, Easter bunny! The party’s this way!”. (via Thinking About Life)

The Easter decorations

Sprucing up the home with simple Easter decorations brings a burst of colour to the festivities. These could be anything from Easter wreaths hanging on the front door or over the fireplace, vessels filled with colourful Easter eggs dotted around the room or handmade paper crafts hanging from branches the kids found outside.

The Easter table

Whether it’s a sitdown brunch or a casual afternoon of drinks and nibbles, a beautifully set Easter table transforms the celebrations from drab to fab in an instant. Easter table decorations needn’t cost the earth – get creative with folding napkins, try decorating Easter eggs for a homemade centrepiece or mix-and-match the crockery for a charming vintage look.

Easter brunch doesn’t have to be a fancy affair. A handful of stunning yet simple recipes for guests to help themselves to is the easiest (and yummiest) way to ensure Easter brunch is a hit. Place grazing platters in the centre of the table put together tear-and-share style dips like this or create individual stations for guests to stack their plates. (via It’s Always Autumn)

The Easter Cake
