Milk
Jug Easter Baskets:
Cut the top
part of the jug away leaving the handle intact. There are usually indentations
on the sides where the older children can cut circles to fit for the
eyes. With Fun Foam, cut two white bunny ears and pink in the middle
of them and staple to jug on each side of the handle. Cut a pink nose
from fun foam or felt, and pipe cleaners for the whiskers. Use hot glue
to attach eyes, nose, whiskers to the jug/basket. Fill jug with Easter
grass.

Easter Decorations
At
my house, I like to put out a few Easter decorations, like a couple
of plush bunnies, and sometimes I put up an Easter Egg ornament tree.
(Wedding money holder trees work well for Easter trees as well.)
Flags
are always festive at the front door.
Celebrate Spring!
I don't like to overdo it... I like decorations, but the more ya put up, the more you have to take down later!!! Remember, it's also about spring, and spring cleaning. (that's the yukky part) Spring cleaning, part of the renewal of spring, is an thousand-year-old tradition practiced by people from all religions and cultures.

Open the shades, and let springtime indoors! Put away the dark winter decor, and add some soft pastels to your home! It does not have to be too "froofy"... just clean and bright! Try simply changing the curtains to a lighter shade! Change the tablecloth and the kitchen towels.

 Gala 8-foot Easter Garland |
The stores are stocking "easter lights" now as well. It's kind of weird to hang "Christmas" lights at Easter, but the little egg lights and bunny lights are SO cute! I like having year-round lights on my front porch, so I usually hang some little pastel egg lights in spring.
