Make an Easter tree!
Painted branches decorated with hanging
ornaments and flowers make a fantastic
display for your dining table, but they’re also a savvy
way to hang jewellery and Easter decorations too.
Decorating a tree is a wonderful way to build
memories, and discuss seasonal changes with kids.7
Have an Easter egg hunt
Haven’t done an Easter Egg hunt for a
while? No children around, or a bit too old?
Don’t worry! Kids and adults alike might enjoy the
thrill of a quick hunt around the house and garden for
their fave chocolate, especially this year.5
Create Easter packaging
If you like to go the extra mile with your
birthday wrap, Easter packaging can add
to the joy of giving and receiving gifts. Brighten
parcels with ribbons and paper flowers in bright,
zingy colours.10
Make vintage
Easter decorations
Using original vintage materials will
ensure Easter decorations are used year after year.
Salvage patterns and motifs from beautiful old
bedspreads, clothing or table linen to create Easter
bunting, mini cushions and more.2
Reinevent the traditional
Easter Egg
Eggs don’t all have to be eaten! Get
creative with your designs and use paper mache,
découpage or real eggs painted in pastel shades.
Display them in upcycled egg cartons and decorate
with paper frills and flowers.1
Make use of spring flowers
After all those dreary winter months, the
appearance of sunshine, daffodils and cherry
blossom puts a spring in everyone’s step. So what
better way to boost your mood by incorporating them
into your house this spring.3
Get snapping in an
Easter setting
Get out and about while the weather is
good. Make use of the vibrant landscape and
flourishing spring features around you to photograph
beautiful scenes you may want to blow up and frame
in your house. Spring scenes also make a great
backdrop for your knits too, if you’re selling them!4
Get busy card making
Friends and family will love to receive a
special card this Easter. Modern pastels
are huge for Easter this year and clean, simple cards
are making a comeback, too. Try heat embossing with
metallic powder – an Easter egg design with gold
details will look stunning!6
Bake Easter-themed sweet
treats Whether you’re making them to
sell or to give to your kids as an Easter
treat, biscuits are a long-standing tradition at this time
of year. For 2021, why not give the usual spiced
cookies a twist by cutting them into fun springtime
shapes and icing them in pretty pastel shades?Egg-c

Teach them to knit
Make the most of the long Easter
weekend to teach your children to knit

Charlie the Chick will love their new, warm attire!
