Easter Inspiration

Happy Friday long Easter weekend!! I've been looking forward to a holiday for a long time. Well, since the last one (whenever that was). Feels like it's been forever since I had a real day off! Anyhow, thought I'd share some Easter inspiration for you. I have been trying to plan a pretty tablescape for Easter brunch/dinner this year, but I'm so consumed with work and planning for Vinny's birthday that I just didn't make the time (or money) to do it. But here are some of the things that have inspired me this holiday and I hope it inspires you too!

*Visit my Pinterest board titled "Easter" to see all links.*

Decorations:
Rainbow Water Centerpiece: How insanely creative is this DIY centerpiece? Just add a drop of food coloring to each glass vase to turn your water totally technicolor. You can even try color blocking every other vase, or go with an ombre fade from deep purple to light blue. (via Papery & Cakery)I made one cross from outside twigs much like this. This is still cuter than the one I made. Not calling it a fail…just a good attempt.pink cherry blossom branches with white ceramic and wood bunnies for a pretty Easter or Spring inspired tablescapeEASTER-BUNNY-RABBIT-BUNTING-HESSIAN-BURLAP-VINTAGE-PARTY-FLAGS-PETER-COTTON-TAILHow to fold a napkin into a bunny (with pictures!)Do peeps and flowers for an Easter centerpiece.
