Easter Wreath


My in-laws are are coming to stay with us over the Easter holidays and I decided to give the house a festive look. Although I didn't need any excuses really ;) The weather has been gorgeous lately so we're planning a BBQ and a roast dinner since we are having a long weekend.

I made a wreath and put a few Easter ornaments and snow globes around the house.  So thought I'll share the photos with you.

Hope you all have a very lovely Easter however you spent it & enjoy whatever you have given up for lent. Do you have any particular Easter traditions?

Happy Easter,

Lily


I used a foam wreath rather than a twig one. I found the twig wreath to be a little difficult to decorate when I  made the harvest wreath!

I also used some ribbon, eggs, feathers and craft wire.

I first added some ribbon but left gaps so I can use the craft wire.

I added craft wire to the eggs and added them to the wreath.


Then added the feathers and little eggs and then the ribbon.

  1. Lily you're place looks so pretty! I really like the wreath and your globes. Job well done! I am having my family here for Easter dinner also. We're having a ham, baked ziti, cabbage rolls and green beans and lots of yummy cookies to go with the coffee. Have a wonderful Easter day with your family!

  2. Hi Lily, It's me again. Just wanted to answer your question about having a long holiday weekend here. My husband and I are both off from Friday thru Easter Sunday, but not everyone is so lucky to have a long weekend. Thanks for stopping by. ;)

  4. We do the usual for Easter... baskets full of candy and little toys, eat a wonderful lunch, and have an egg hunt at church. A little special thing I like to do for the girls is leave a trail of candy from their room to their Easter basket. They always crawl on their knees and scoop up the candy like it is gold :) Such a fun thing to watch. Blessings
