Mother's Day is on Sunday, and if you're looking for last minute ideas to dress your table, then this DIY is for you! Not only it's super simple to make and dresses up any plain table instantly, but it also uses materials you probably have around the house. AND it double as a pretty gift for mom! ;)

DIY Quick & Easy Citrus Candles

DIY Quick & Easy Citrus Candles

Come Spring we find ourselves eating more and more outside, like for the fiesta party  we shared last week. And there's nothing I like best than evening meals in the patio, surrounded by flickering candles to set the mood! Bonus points if your candles look mega original and smell subtly fruity! ;)

DIY Nail Polish Marbled Easter Eggs

DIY Nail Polish Marbled Easter Eggs

There are tons of Easter egg decoration ideas and DIYs on Pinterest . But to be honest, some of them are just too involved, or not child-friendly or require blowing out eggs (who has time or patience for that?!).  So I just came up with the pretties and EASIEST Easter egg decorating technique , using a medium you already have at home - nail polish! ! :)

DIY Easter Bunny Treat Tubes for Kids

DIY Easter Bunny Treat Tubes for Kids

Bunny and Easter eggs crafts are not in shortage on Pinterest . But I tend to seek out EASY craft and DIY ideas that kids can help to make...or something that I can put in a ' craft kit' format for parties, like for Easter brunch. And this year, I'm giving the kiddos these cute DIY Easter Bunny candy tube kits so we can all have fun making crafting cuteness at Easter! 

DIY Crepe Paper Flowers Bouquet

DIY Crepe Paper Flowers Bouquet

Remember the giant paper roses I made for this shoot ? Well, these area  smaller version of the roses but using crepe paper instead and making them into a beautiful bouquet for Mother's Day (weddings too or any other occasion you fancy!) They are so pretty, long-lasting, and easy to make, and are the perfect gift or craft for kids to get involved in (with a little supervision of course, as there are wire cutters involved!).  My daughter LOVED crafting with me on the weekend; and as a proud mom (not ashamed to say) I just couldn't help myself and took some extra shots of my precious,  pretty in pink baby ♥

DIY Easter Bunny Push-up Pops Party Centerpiece

DIY Easter Bunny Push-up Pops Party Centerpiece

As always, I love finding novel ways to use party printables, and   this is how these little Easter  B unny Push-up Pops came about. I had some  printable bunny cupcake wrappers left from my  Easter Kids' Egg Hunt Party photo shoot, and couldn't bear to throw them out, so I got my trusty puncher out and few supplies, and voila - Easy and super quick Easter Push-Pop Centerpiece that doubles as party favors holder. Life doesn't get sweet that that for a party nerd like me! :)

DIY No-Sew Easy Plush Paper Flowers

DIY No-Sew Easy Plush Paper Flowers

These Plush Flowers, believe it or not; are  made from paper napkins and super quick to make too! They are a variation on my plush fabric flowers that I shared here . Don't they just look so cute?! AND they do not require any sewing , nor a lot of time - The idea came to me when styling our recent  Easter Garden Party . I really wanted to use pastel colored plush flowers, but did not have the time nor disposition to get out my sewing kit, and wondered if the technique would work with paper. Well, it did - Just proves again how necessity (or laziness) really is the mother of all invention! ;) Get the full step-by-step below...

DIY Crepe Paper Flower Pomanders Party Decorations

DIY Crepe Paper Flower Pomanders Party Decorations

I created this tutorial a while back for the Get Married website, but forgot to post it here - Tissue Paper Flower Pomanders ! These pomanders make for really nice centerpieces displayed under a glass cloche like I did here or you can glue a piece of ribbon to each pomander and make stunning hanging decorations!
