Easter Decor!

Hi Everybody 

My lovely little niece is coming over this easter weekend so me and my mum thought we'd make a real effort and make it special

Now being Swedish, Easter is a little different to the usual british one. You do see hint of the more european easter nowadays so some of these things I'm showing might be nothing new to you.

Anyway, I remember as a small girl going over to Sweden for the Easter holidays and my aunt and grandparents having little things which made it more special.

I think it's coming over here more and more but they would take a branch from the garden and decorate it with blown painted eggs and special little things dotted around the house.

Also instead of the chocolate eggs you get over here we'd get a cardboard egg which was decorated with pictures depicting rabbits on an Easter egg hunt filled with all sorts of individually wrapped chocolates and bonbons. I found this similar egg we used to have as kids on Amazon.

So using some of our old decorations and also purchasing some new little bits me and my mum are ready to decorate for easter

Firstly is this adorable ceramic egg my dad bought for my mum years ago. It's got a red ribbon on the top ready to hang from and easter branch.

We went to the shop Tiger and purchased a few little eater branch hanging decorations 2 packs of eggs and other little characters

We found these adorable glass hanging eggs in a little boutique shop. 

So here is the end result of the easter tree.

We cut down a large branch from the garden and put it into a flower pot with gravel to hold it up.

For a majority of the decorations they're on string so they were easy to just hang up others required some bluetac to stick on the branches.

It's such a talking point to, everyone loves it when they come over. 

Other little bits we've done are the typical daffodils and I spotted this cute little sign in Sainsbury's for £6 and couldn't resist.

I've got a couple more ideas to make this easter special so watch this space.
