In prepping for the seasonal transition into spring, fashion and beauty seem to always be covered, and rightfully so — it's easy to get inspired by so many lighter layers to wear and cheerful colours on the skin. However, home décor can often get missed but not in our home. Décor is always what I genuinely get most excited about … aside from seasonal food offerings.  

To guide you through the doors of spring as they slowly open, here are just a handful of ways to get your creative juices flowing. What's more, you can do all of these from the comfort of your home; take a break from the negativity happening around the world, even if only for a moment. 

From Easter [entertaining] inspiration to practical DIYs for the home, here is a start good and proper. So, grab some shears and a glue stick; no matter what level you’re at, I have made all of these DIYs to be quite easy to create. Some of the projects will definitely be fun and crafty for the wee ones, others you can take the lead on.   

 Above: I  will walk you through more of my DIYs for my Easter tablescape in another post soon. 

Easter Entertaining: 

You will see these Pom Pom Bunny Drawstring Bags and my Decorative Egg (Place Cards) Name Cards

in an upcoming post soon (*View the sneak preview on my Instagram), which I used unfinished wooden eggs with our place settings! 

When you have storage boxes to tidy things up, labelling is everything! Although there are times when Magnetic Chalkboard Signage is ideal; it makes it easy to change the labels or titles when you add new storage items. I also used some of these signs for our entertaining décor. 

Home Décor: 

When I came up with this DIY, I was inspired by a personal growth entry that I had read in my planner. Consequently, that was the impetus for the Planted Magnets (‘Time To Grow’ Buttons) concept. I also love how something so simple can have various meanings. With the addition of pinbacks or paperclips, I have made these like buttons, to use as bookmarks, and magnets. Perhaps, you could even use these for scrapbook accents. It’s really up to you! The Wall Calligraphy Sign can be used for entertaining or alone on a shelf. 

I used these Sparkling Rabbit Accents for my upcoming Easter tablescape but you could actually make these for any spring table décor accent. The playful colours would blend harmoniously with bright pieces, or perhaps add a stroke colour to any plain palette. Spring décor is certainly not boring. Even only adding the gilded leafing sans paint could be lovely against the white ceramic chalky texture.
