DIY & Easy Easter Decor

Easter is this Sunday and if you aren't ready with your décor, Snippets Of Creations would like to share with you easy DIY ideas in this last Easter post.

Maybe you are hosting Easter lunch or dinner and you don't feel as though you have any time to decorate, but I want to encourage you these projects take very little time to create and they will add so much to your home!

Some of these ideas you may have seen in our past posts, but some are new and just as easy to create!

Since I don't have a mantel, I use my television console to display most of my décor.

In the photo above is the Easter egg tree I made as well as the free Easter printables.  To see the Easter egg tree tutorial, you can click here. 

In this photo are some of the free Easter prinatables I created.  To see all of them and click & print them for yourself, click here.

This one is my favorite!  I had both brown and white burlap, so I found a free clipart silhouette inline and used it to cut out the white burlap bunny.  Then using double-sided tape, I taped it to the brown burlap and put it in a frame!  E-A-S-Y!!! 

 And yes, it gets even easier!  I had these galvanized watering cans, so I stuck some branches in there I had used in a previous project and hung some eggs I bought at JoAnn's for $3!!!

I shared this no-sew Easter/Spring banner with you last week.  It didn't take very long to make and it looks so cute on my mom's mantel (yes, I used her mantel because it looks better there than on my television console!)  Click here to see that post.

And finally, the Easter door wreath.  To see the tutorial on this, click here.

Like I said, so easy!!  Each project took me no more than an hour!  Even if you do a few to add accents to your home, it will get you in the spirit and your guests will love it!

Happy Easter!!

A Great BIG Thank you!

I know this is a DIY blog, but to be honest with you...I haven't had much time to DIY with the Barn Sale. I promise, I will have something new for you on Monday but for now I want to reflect back on my first vendor experience.

I want to take a minute and THANK everybody that made the Barn Sale a HUGE success for my new adventure! I am always amazed at my wonderful friends...they are such caring, loving, giving,  and kind people (I could go on, but that would take forever). They came to say hi and even buy items from my booth...you guys truly are the meaning of FRIENDS! My mom and Tabatha (the BFF) even came and spent the day with me an my Tyler (my middle son) came for awhile to support his mom (that kid!). 

It was great fun and a memory I will hold dear to my heart every time I am at another event. 

My kids sent me this card along with a shirt (with 'Beautifully Broken Creations' printed on it). They each said so loving and kind words (sorry you can't see Tim and Kate's note). I wanted to be able to display that and take it with me where ever I go (meaning vendor events), so I put it in a shadow box and copied their notes onto a piece of scrapbook paper. My family has been such a huge support and I really do not know what I would do without them! This momma is one lucky person!

Here are some photos of my booth:

This was one experience I will never forget. Not only did I have support from family and friends, I met new customers (who I think will be repeat offenders). The outpouring of kind words have touched me in a way that I cannot explain! It validated the fact, that I can and will be continuing this little adventure of mine. I can't wait to see what 'He' has in store for me...it's exciting!

Again, thank you for all of the support and thank you Cindy Jo for allowing me to come and be a vendor at the 'Buzzard Creek Primitives' Barn Sale...I hope to be back in the Fall!

Have a blessed day!
