Holidays, Crazy for Carrots and an Easter Egg Tree
Have you hopped into Easter yet?
I have been gathering my eggs and bunnies, starting to get ready for lots of family coming for Spring Break & Easter
HH just loves this pencil tree that we’ve had up since early December
We decided to transform it once again into an Easter Tree
I replaced the ornaments from the Mardi Gras Tree/Valentine Tree with fish, starfish, glass floats and mermaids, and added some sparkly eggs
We are going to tuck some Easter surprises under the tree for our little bunnies to discover
I also set up the kitchen island with a bunny & carrot theme
Bunnies are there to greet you with Easter eggs and chocolates
An egg garland winds it’s way through the plate stacks and cake dome
The painted palm tree cake dome is decorated with pair of a fabric carrots
I made these decoupage bunnies last year
You can find the tutorial and lots more Spring ideas
crafts, tables, flowers and recipes
in my new magazine “all things Spring!”
Near the entrance to the kitchen there is a “snack station,” with jars of nuts, crackers and cookies, along with small bowls
This keeps the traffic down in the main part of the kitchen when hungry hands are looking for nibbles
Across the island, the cake dome is full of mini lemon muffins for dessert or breakfast
I will be sharing the recipe for these muffins next week, you won’t want to miss this, these are THE best muffins ever!
There are Spring mugs on a charger ready for coffee or tea {or muffins 😋}
And a gurgling fish pitcher of hydrating water…
These pitchers actually gurgle loudly when you pour from them, you almost want to say “Excuse me!”
I love those sweet bunny backs…
The table has a carrot centerpiece
A carrot wreath surrounds a lantern full of carrots
Thanks for hopping by!

Since the Spring holidays have been so jumbled up this year, it’s hard not to feel rushed celebrating them
You’ll be happy to know that next year’s calendar has them much more spread out!

I love the idea of the snack station! And it’s all so pretty. I just made a carrot basket yesterday. And I very nearly bought that same fish pitcher last summer. It’s still on my radar!
Oh I can’t wait to see your basket Jeanie!
I need to put my snowies away and get my SPRING on! Maybe that is why it is still so cold here…..
Yes, get rid of the snowies immediately!
Just did! Bring on spring!!
Great spring display – colorful, casual and oh, so inviting! Love those little mugs with crunch, chirp and hop on them, as well as those bunny back. 😉
Thanks Rita!
I need to put away St. Patrick’s and get out Easter. Love the bright colors! The snack station sounds good too. Will be waiting for the recipe for the lemon muffins! 😉
Coming Tuesday, Thank you Cyndi!
Such cuteness Jenna. So pretty and colorful. Snack stations are so needed…LOL happy Sunday!
Ha-ha, yep, it seems like carrots are the theme of the weekend! I just put up some Easter carrot (and bunny) lights up yesterday:@) Happy Easter Planning Jenna!
Lovely and cute displays.
Thank You
Marilyn and Marion
Spring certainly arrive at your home with so many pretty ideas. Love the painted dome and all the colorful plates and bunnies. I adore those mugs with the pretty colors inside. Great idea for the snack station when you have a large group, especially young ones coming and going. The tree has served you well Jenna. Everytime I see it I question myself as to why I haven’t done that. I have a lot of Easter ornaments. Have a wonderful and happy Spring week……..
ha ha, yes it’s about time to put the tree away, problem is I’ve got nowhere to put it 🙂 HH wants to put flags and red white & blue on it for July 4th!
So many cute and clever ideas, Jenna!! 🐇🌸🌿
Thanks Jill!
I’m thinking your family must love coming to your house to see what you’ve come up with. Every visit has to hold wonderful surprises as well as traditional favorites.
Awww thanks Linda, I have a lot of fun!
Looks like you are ready for Easter, Jenna. I always loved the hollow chocolate bunnies.
yes so tempting!
you had me at Lemon muffins!! Cute decorations!
Posting Tuesday, they are addictive!
Jenna, I do love your Easter tree! I know that your little bunnies enjoy their treats and the snack station! You are ready to bring on the Easter celebration!
I loved this post! Today I am going to get the mini white Christmas tree down and create an Easter tree.
ha ha, good!! Have fun!!
Hi Jenna, oh I love how you created the carrot centerpiece and the Easter tree. It looks like you are ready to celebrate Easter. Thanks for sharing this at Cooking and Crafting with J & J.
We are expecting more rain and snow on Wednesday. I can’t wait for spring to arrive here. Have a
happy spring and week.
Julie xo
Oh no Julie! I know you are beyond tired of the snow!!
I love all your darling Spring details, especially your Easter tree!! Have a wonderful week, Jenna!!
Thank you Katie, sorry about all your snow…
I know all your little (and big!) bunnies will love your egg-stravanza Jenna! Love your spring mugs! I hope you’re tucked far away and safe from the weather and storms that blew through Alabama yesterday. ♥
thanks Mary, we were safe in B’ham, but it’s always scary anyway…
Wow, loving the Spring touches! Especially those mugs. Now those would be a nice way to start the day. Everything looks just beautiful Jenna.
Thanks Christine!
