Sweet & Simple Easter Gift Ideas ♥

Hello !!

With Easter just around the corner I wanted to share a few sweet and simple Easter gift ideas that I have found and love, that make a great alternative to buying pre- packed Easter eggs at the Supermarket.  Whilst little hand made gifts can be more time consuming, I think that they show a lot of love and are received excitedly by children and adults alike ♥

Here our our dance & school teacher Easter gifts for this year. Nice and simple but still cute,  mini milk bottles filled with Easter eggs and a pretty tag.  Free tag printables from Muska & Elvis. 

Need some gorgeous printables for your Easter celebrations ?  Check out Be Design Solutions for these super cute designs.

These adorable milk bottle bunnies filled with sweets are a cute and thoughtful Easter gift.  Love them! From The Idea Room.  Full tutorial & printable labels here.  (Glass milk bottles can be found at many stores such as Red Dot, Gone Bazaar, Thingz & discount shops.  The Reject Shop also sell plastic milk bottles which would be perfect to give for children.)

Adorable Bunny Lollipops from The Mother Huddle.  Full tutorial here 

A fun & simple chocolate alternative from Club ChicaCircle.  Full tutorial here

Cute little Bunny bag toppers, a cute way to give a simple bag of sweets.  From Skip to My Lou, full tutorial & printable download here.

This option would be great to give as a 'family' gift instead of individual.  Mix up up with mini Easter eggs & lollies.  Then wrap the carton in some pretty fabric & ribbon.   From the Crafting Chicks.  Full tutorial here.http://thecraftingchicks.com/2011/04/easy-tasty-easter-gift.html

Clifford the Big Red Dog ~ Real Party Feature!

Hi There!

Today's real party feature comes to us from Sharna Timmer and is a fun 'Clifford the Big Red Dog' themed party for her daughter's 3rd Birthday.

Sharna made the super cute cake and the majority of the decorations herself. There are some adorable little details and I really love the use of the various dog bowls to display the party food, such a great idea.

This party is so bright and fun, thanks so much for sharing with us Sharna, you did an amazing job!
