this weekend's theme

~ The Best of Easter ~
 The following links lead back to their original owners. If one of them is yours and you wish for your link to be removed, please let me know. 

So... I went out and hunted for the best of the best Easter projects. And naturally, I landed at Martha's house a few times.



Martha Stewart

Nothing spells Easter moreso than spring flowers in bloom.

Isn't this nest like basket the most amazing Easter vase? Love it!


Martha Stewart

What an adorable cake!


Martha Stewart

So simple yet soooo sweet.


Martha Stewart

Quick! Get out those white vintage Christmas trees! Stunning. The threaded eggs and carrots are a neat tutorial too.


Martha Stewart

Baby bird eggs! Way cute.


Martha Stewart

Oh goodness, these votives are too sweet! Full tutorial at the link.

But Martha isn't the only one belting out great Easter projects. Found around blogland...


Modern Parents Messy Kids

This Easter egg paint chip garland is so cute! With an easy to follow tutorial.




I LOVE the rustic flair and organic quality to these clay pot nests! By All Things Heart and Home.


This Easter egg garland is stunning! The tone on tone hues blend so well, I'd be tempted to leave this up much longer than just Easter. By A Pretty Life in the Suburbs. 

Now it's your turn!

  1. LOL I have been working so hard to get fase 1 of my gardening table makeover finished for the farmhouse table linky. And now you have postponed it week. Ah well, I linked it up to home decor than and who knows maybe fase 2 will be ready for the themed linkup. :-) Serves me well for not reading the fine print, last week.
    I thought what the heck let's throw in my one Easter decorations post then too.
    Happy Easter to you my dear Donna!! (and to your special helper, aka your son).

  6. Hi, Donna! What great Easter projects! I love the feature with the bird nest pots! I can see using the pots for other ideas as well. So cute!
    I'm loving the kitchen posts. What fun to see the before, during and afters. In BOTH kitchens. Even though I'd read yours before, I loved seeing it all again. (You never catch it all the first time around.) :)
    Hope you have a wonderful and blessed Easter!
