Hoppy Easter...a basket full of delights!

There's something for every single occasion, if you know where to find it. I love seeing other peoples creativity and filling with envy, some people are so truely talented. The internet has a lot to answer for as shopping is now available everywhere from such as Etsy and Folksy to the magic of Facebook there truely is no escape. It is a blessing for many of the businesses out there, that have gained an outlet for their creative talents through the strength of the internet. I for one enjoy shopping alot more when I know that the item is handmade.

On a recent trip to buy a couple of cards I couldn't help but notice that all the mother's day cards had been promptly packed away to make way for colourful displays of pinks, greens and yellow crammed full of easter cards for everyone you can imagine.

Still as lovely and cute as the many different 'bunny' photos were, I don't think anything is quite as eye-catching as this stunning card from ARC Kisses. Check out this fantastic page on Facebook.

The perfect little addition to one of these gorgeous cards has to be one of these gorgeous "Easter Bunny Stop Here" signs which I stumbled across via Etsy, you can visit the seller here.

I will confess to having a total weakness for adding gorgeous little touches like these around the house to suit the season and I am currently working on buying a wishing tree so that I can have lots of beautiful little bits and pieces to hang from the twigs all year round! Easter is a lovely season and aside from it being another excuse to eat choccie eggs it symbolises new life and beginnings. It brings with it a beautiful range of colours and sitting outside enjoying the sunshine, surrounded by bright yellow daffodils just fills me with inspiration.

These funky little sweet holders are a great quick and easy craft to create together with the kids to include in your easter celebration. The tutorial and templates can be found here.

I am also partial to home baking and have a little bit of a sweet tooth. I love that you can now even get bunting for CAKES! Who would have thought..I am sure this will feature somewhere again soon, but in the meantime I found Itsy Belle's fantastic blog and if you head on over you can download a free printable of some "Hoppy Easter" cake bunting.

There are lots of fun ways to spend Easter and if the weather is nice you could add abit of outdoor fun with an Easter Egg Hunt, obviously aimed completely at the children (or the bigger kids) with a bit of lunch. There are lots of great hints and tips plus free printables to help you out hopping up all over the place, including this little collection via catch my party.

The above photo is taken from this absolutely gorgeous Bridal Party blog post at love my dress. Some lush ideas over there.

I hope that for now I have filled you with enough Easter inspiration.

Hoppy Easter Everyone!! x
