Preparando Per Pasqua… Getting Ready For Easter…

There is something so sweet about Easter… The bunnies, the flowers,  the pastel colors… adorable,    they all inspire me to make something sweet and lovely.  I haven't been decorating for holidays as much as I used to like to,  but,  definitely enough to be in the spirit of things.  Egg decorating,  always a must for Easter,   and  always a little different each year.  Making cookies with Giu Giu has been fun… This year I am enjoying garden shades for my eggs,  and decor…along with some pastels… of course…

Uova Per Pasqua… Easter Eggs…

I've been planning our Easter Dinner,  deciding on a menu and the decor… somehow though ,  this year,   i'm torn,  and can't seem to decide between  pastels,  which I love for Easter… or,  a   more rustic, muted garden theme…. We'll likely be dining outside,  so,  we'll see.  I started the "season" making delicate ,  pastel , Velvet Easter  Eggs,  and now it's dark , muted garden colored Eggs with Pressed Flowers.  I guess i'm sort of Garden Obsessed right now…  

Buona Primavera… Happy Springtime…

Welcoming Springtime with some pretty little handmade Velvet Easter Eggs…

Le Prime Rose E Un Dolce...The First Roses And A Cake...

The Roses have begun their Spring Bloom...  Casually placed in Natural Baskets, along with a few Branches,  and Eggs,  dyed in deep,  rustic hues, they made for simple, Nature Inspired  Easter Table Centerpieces. The Cake was a Dark German Chocolate,  dressed in Handmade, Dark Chocolate Butterflies , Twigs, and a few little Eggs, all  painted with Gold Luster Dust.
