Easter Sunday

He Is Risen!!

Coffee Bar

Having guests for Easter this year?

Why not set up a coffee bar at the dessert table?

It doesn't have to be super fancy and you can mix and match all of your coffee essentials!

The mugs above were purchased at Walmart.  They're part of the new BH&G spring line of dishes.  Love the fleur-de-lis! 

This cute rectangular sugar bowl came from The Christmas Tree Shop - $1.99 - love that place!!

This whimsical little cow creamer also came from the Christmas Tree Shop - 69 cents!  Did I mention that I love this store??

 Put everything together on an old flea market tray and you've got an instant coffee bar.  Place it at your dessert table with a thermal carafe or you can put it out on your counter next to the coffee pot.  Be creative with it and your guests can just help themselves!

Happy Easter!

Easter Eggs

I've been working on some Easter decor today.

Here are some eggs that I made this afternoon.

The kids and I also made some papier mache bowls out of shredded sheet music paper.

We tried this idea that was in the April issue of Country Living magazine.



For a tutorial on the eggs, visit my other blog Ruffles and Mudpies

A New Blog and Some Easter Ideas

I wanted to share with you, a few bits of Easter decor ideas.



I made a fun little Easter tree

as well as these adorable birds

Which brings me to the second topic of this post...


I've started a new blog! I'm still going to keep my French cottage blog {with regular updates}, but I decided to keep the decorating separate from the project tutorials.

So...come on over to Ruffles and Mudpies to see some of the new projects I've got!

You'll see the Easter egg tree pictured above as well as the birds and I've even got a tutu tutorial too - haha say that three times real fast - tutu tutorial too!

I hope you'll come over for a visit and follow along!
