Prepare for Your Easter Celebration!

Hippity Hop! Easter is on its way—and that means gatherings are order. Whether you’re hosting a crowd or spending the day with a few close loved ones, these tips can enjoy ensure you make the most of the spring celebration.

SET THE SCENE

Part of the fun in celebrating a holiday is in the preparation. Weeks before the Easter season, you can begin to set out special crosses (we love this Celtic Knot Wall Cross), bunnies, fresh lilies from the garden, and other signs of the season. If you plan to host guests, also consider their comfort. Make sure you have fresh towels in the bath and burn a softly scented candle to make your home feel inviting. Add throw pillows to your sofa or guest beds for extra comfort—as well personality. We particularly love this “welcoming” pillow.

FILL THE BASKETS

While eggs often take first priority in little ones’ Easter baskets, there’s always room for a few goodies. Chocolate bunnies, marshmallow chicks, and small toys are favorites. If you’re looking for something a bit more unique, we can’t resist the cuteness of these bunny slippers.

ENJOY THE COMPANY

Finally, spending time with loved ones is a huge part of many Easter celebrations. Whether you are going to mass or church services, hiding and hunting eggs, or gathering around the table to share a meal, the day is made better when you are surrounded with friends and family. Set out a favorite tea to sip with friends and sit back to enjoy the day.
