We don't really decorate much for Easter here in Australia
This year I haven't done much in the way of decor at all.
I like to buy some extra bags of small chocolate eggs to have in the house leading up to Easter.
It is nice to offer them to visitors and we manage to eat a few ourselves.
This year I bought lots of little Chocolate eggs
Not all for us
I emptied all of the packets into a big vase and as
we aren't celebrating Easter at our place this year, this was the extent of my Easter decorating
Simple but still effective
The vase is not so full any more
No we didn't eat them all
I made little boxes and then filled them with some chocolate eggs
the last couple of years I have been trying to reduce the number of chocolate we give
It all gets a little ridiculous
we only finished the last chocolate bunny from Easter 2011 about 4 weeks ago!
This way I give something hand made and some chocolate to keep the kids (big & little alike) happy.
I hope you all have a great Easter long weekend

All of those chocolates in the bowl look lovely and very effective. I really like the simplicity of your decorating too and those cute little boxes are a great idea to give a little something at Easter but not too much:) xx
ReplyDeleteI think having little Easter eggs on hand to share with guests is a good idea - I like how you've displayed yours. Your boxes are very cute too Nellie! x

Love your boxes, have a lovely easter.x
ReplyDeleteWe did a big jar of eggs for our breakfast guest too but I forgot to put them out so now I have a excess supply not good as I have been over enjoying the hot cross buns and easter eggs for quite some time.
