Easter Eggsitement

I love holidays. They give you something fun to look forward to. Here are a couple of ideas I have used for Easter Decor.

This first one is sooo simple, but fun and tasty. My little sis got these tiny candy jars (I think she said from Ikea) for her wedding and did not want them so I inherited them. I fill them with candy in the colors of the nearest holiday and put them on top of my fridge for a little festive joy. You could embellish the lids if you were feeling super motivated.

Plus, then I have a yummy treat on hand and it is in a place where I determine the distribution for the kiddo. I used Reese’s Eggs, Cadbury Mini Eggs, and Robin Eggs. Your mouth is watering isn’t it?

Today I was featured on Tip Junkie for an Easter basket idea I did on my personal blog a while ago. See the Basketball hoop basket idea here. On that post it also shows the Easter Garland that inspired my next project.

I think they used some type of sewing or embroidery string, but I don’t sew, so I used fishing line.
What you’ll need:
Fishing line
Plastic eggs with holes pre-punched (I got mine at the dollar store of course)
Mechanical pencil or toothpick

All you have to do is thread the line through the eggs without getting tangled. Sounds simple right? Ya, as long as you unwind the line as you go. I took it all off my husband’s pole (with his permission) in one long string. That made it difficult to keep untangled. I used the pencil to make sure the holes were completely clear to make the threading easier.

It would be super cute on a banister with some ribbons, as you can see here. But, with my little guy that would not last 5 minutes so I put mine on top of my cabinets in my kitchen.
