A 5 Minute Easter Bunny Basket

Easter is just a week away and this past week I put together this 5 minute-to-make Easter Bunny basket. Here’s how to create this Momma and Baby Bunny basket…

Supplies you will need

  • a pretty basket to create your Easter centerpiece with
  • a momma and baby bunny or any other bunnies you may have
  • plastic eggs for color and filler
  • a cake plate or stand to raise the bunnies
  • green moss to line the bottom and sides of the basket
  • faux or dried flowers to create a meadow-like setting

Add sheet moss or clumps of moss around the bottom and up the sides, if desired. Next, place your cake plate in the basket. This cake plate is placed off to the side because of the handle in the middle.

Place the bunnies in next and begin adding flowers to your basket.

Bend the wires of each stem unless you wish to cut them. I reuse my faux flowers all the time so this works for most of my stylings.

Add in some colorful plastic, blown or any other decorated Easter eggs you may have in your craft and holiday supplies… And you are done!

Come back tomorrow to see how I’ve used this centerpiece in a Easter table setting. Wishing you the best of health and happiness this Easter season!

Decorate Your Angelic Statuettes for the Seasons…

Decorating our homes for  each season seems such a logical thing for all of us to do, but have you thought about decorating your little statues and statuettes the same way? Today I am sharing some fun wonderful statue transformations from my friends and some of my own. 

Let’s begin this angelic tour, shall we?…


Snowbirds…

Berry Christmas…


“The Girls” get decorated each winter outdoors with faux berry head wreaths or roses each year.  This is a favorite way I like to decorate my outdoor statues. Recently, I found a pepper tree near our Texas home and now I am just waiting for the berries to get ripe!*

*Turns out the Texas version of a pepper tree is different than its California cousin in that it has berries far apart on little branchlets and also has thorns, so… No new head wreaths unless I make them with faux berries again. 🙁 
Here in a Valentine’s Tablesetting ~ Ethereal in Pink our fair maiden wore a child’s tutu as a stole. Perfect for a fall Halloween party (with an added mask!) or for Valentine’s, this is a super easy way to dress up your statues.


Here my friend Debra of Common Ground added a simple brown ribbon tied in a  bow with a beautiful cross to her maiden. At some point Debra découpaged a watercolour tissue paper onto the lower half of this bust and added an upturned collar ~ such a gorgeous way to hide any flaws in chalkware pieces!

  
Amber at Follow the Yellow Brick Home decorates her music room at Christmas time in grand style and here Beethoven dressed warmly for the holiday season and this holiday home tour in a nubby oatmeal muffler. Amber’s farmhouse is just gorgeous and this post really shows off its grand beauty.


 An Old Angel and a Giveaway! | Edith & Evelyn
Cindy of Edith and Evelyn Vintage has an incredible angel which she found for sale when a church was closing its doors. Made of solid plaster but missing its wings, her husband fashioned a pair from a store-bought pair replacing the original ones lost to time. Here this angel is most decidedly angelic with its crown, sceptre and rosary beads ~ stunning!


Spur of the moment idea

Here our Lady Liberty wears our nation’s colors proudly! This was a photo I took for a 4th of July Pinterest Challenge but used later in this 10 on the 10th post. Repurposing worn flags into pillows or like I have done here is a good way to give a retired flag a second life.

Just go with it

“Spur of the moment ideas” when decorating are sometimes the most brilliant and often we just need to “go with it” when decorating our homes! If you love statues like I do then adding pieces of vintage jewelry to yours is an easy way to begin.

From a shop I visited in California ~ Posies and Picket Fences.


I hope you have enjoyed this tour of angelic statues today and have found a few ideas to use to decorate yours! Here is a pin to share and if you like what you see here, please consider following along. Thank you! 🙂
