Easter Time - new beginnings

 My family loves Spring time- new beginnings, lots of new plans, tons of digging in the garden, creativeness sprouts from every corner. I'm pretty much sure that during this time of the year all living creatures feel the need to grow, stay outdoor and smile to the expanding green life that surrounds us.

 

 My kids are moving to the backyard for next 2 or 3 seasons ! They have already done traditional  ritual to open the outdoor season - art session with wet chalk  all over the patio :).

 
 ...and then to make everything more official comes Easter with all colorful projects, yummy spring food and lots of fresh air .

   

 Once a year  my husband becomes Master Easter Bunny for a day. He loves organizing Easter egg hunt. To me,it is a pretty new tradition. In Poland where I grew up, we didn't have amazing Easter Bunnies that bring eggs filled with treats.It must be a specific species for USA habitat :). I do love watching and taking photos of that phenomenal activity...kids totally go bonkers for that!

 
                    And of course, traditionally, any celebration needs to have some good bake off, so we had to bake and decorate some cookies....

  Finally I have a great reason to hang out my spring banner :) This is one of my favorites and really goes well with hues in my house .Yey- to all the bright and cheerful colors :)

 

  

  Happy Spring and Easter to all :). To all new beginnings !

 

Turquoise and purple sort of crafts

Another day filled with excitement about another birthday. Have I mentioned that February is just bursting with birthdays in my family? So thanks to all the celebration we have so much motivation and inspiration for all this crafts.
Amelie decided to share her love for headbands and she made one of her lovely accessories for her friend’s b-day. And it absolutely HAD be purple and turquoise , even thought me made tons of headbands in this hues. Well,  here it is one more variation. It must be the most popular color combo of this season .And btw, it makes sense ! these are the colors for February and March ( according to astrology) .Thank you dear Aquarius and Pisces friends  for a very powerful influence.And I think Neptune is supposed be very powerful these days.

And I made something with a little bit of turquoise myself…cute banner in the anticipation on coming spring . Looking at these photos, I must say we were riding the same color pallet waive …blame it on genes.

  
 And all those project are of course our entries for 'Thing-a-Day' ...keep on working out those crafty muscles ...
