FLORAL EASTER BASKET

3
One of the cutest things about Easter is watching all the kids in their fancy Easter clothes, running around with baskets almost as big as them hunting for eggs. This basket is no exception, with large flowers covering the basket it’s sure to be the hit of the Easter parade!

PEEP WREATH DIY

For as long as I can remember some of my fondest Easter basket memories have involved peeps (and reeses peanut butter eggs but not attaching with tooth picks to a wreath eww!)

So I really jumped at the chance to incorporate a brightly colored sugar bird with my holiday décor.

(But honestly its all I can do not to swipe one as I walk by.)

LACE SLEEP SHORTS

Lace Boxers DIY
Admittedly I’m a sweats and tee girl when it comes to lounging or sleeping. I know my husband’s not too happy about that. I’m not even too happy about that, so today all that will change, mostly.

This project is a great way to girlie up a basic sleep item you may already have around the house.

Even though there are a lot of steps, this is a really quick and easy DIY.

PEEPTINI

The Peeptini, what can I say it had to be done.

Easter is right around the corner and this weekend I’ll be working on lots of great projects for Easter and for the upcoming week. I hope everyone has a great weekend and let me know what you’ll be working on. Get crafty!
See below the pic for my perfect Cosmopolitan recipe!

PeeptiniFor my Peeptini I made one of my favorite drinks the Cosmopolitan, but of course you can make any drink you like. The cute alligator napkins are from Lilly Pulitzer.

Here’s my recipe for the perfect Cosmopolitan:

2 oz. Vodka, plain or citron flavored
1 oz. Triple Sec
1 oz. Cranberry juice
1/2 oz. Rose’s lime juice or you can use fresh lime juice
If you like, frost the rim of your chilled glass by moistening with a little cranberry juice, then dipping the rim into granulated sugar. Shake (never stir) all ingredients with ice and strain into a chilled glass. Salut!
Have a great weekend!

THURSDAY INSPIRATION

2

We all need to take some time and recharge our creative batteries. I have a collection of old magazines that I normally go to for inspiration, but today I felt the need for more. I was lucky enough to inherit some amazing books from my grandmother, not limited to these three from the early 1970’s on home decorating. These books are a great source of inspiration and color.

While I’m pretty sure I would never decorate a room with matching wallpaper and upholstery, they do have some great details.
