Easter Weekend Plans

It has been a crazy busy couple of weeks. But I am determined to do some fun easter stuff this weekend. So this morning we went to get supplies. I tried to focus on general craft supplies we could use any time or on future Easters. So we got:

• pastel coloured paper
• big construction paper (variety of colours)
• tempura paints in 6 colours (easter and regular)
• yellow feathers
• white fluff balls
• pink pipe cleaners
• sparkel sprinkles
• a new big paint brush
• white eggs (to blow out and use eggs for quiche etc)
• supplies for sugar cookies and icing
• round cardboard plates

We already have:

• different coloured felt
• glue
• scissors
• cookie cutters for easter
• food dyes
• pastels sprinkles
• a few baskets
• paper shavings
• felt- various colours but need pink and orange
• green tissue paper

Still need:

• pink embroidery floss
• mini cupcake holders

Friday afternoon: chick eggs

Saturday morning: sugar cookie batter

Saturday afternoon: pig and bunny eggs

Sunday morning: Caia's gift: new Beatrix Potter place mat, plate and glass, bunny stuffed animal, tea set in pastel colours. Easter egg hunt for Caia. Easter breakfast of boiled eggs, toast and bacon.

Sunday afternoon: (maybe start in morning) roll out, cut and bake cookies

Sunday evening: Easter dinner at Granny and Grandpa's, decorate dining room

Monday Brunch and Crafts with Friends

Friends are bringing savoury scones, crepes, and juice. Kevin's making 2 types of quiche (definitely a bacon leek one and one veggie). And I will do a fruit salad and yoghurt.

Two craft plans: bunny or chicks made with cardboard plates, paint, sprinkles, feathers, etc. and decorating easter cookies (may make into puzzle pieces).

Crafts are all from Martha Stewart (and photos).
