Friday Favorites from So Much Better with Age, Designthusiam, Simply Delicious, Let’s Mingle, and More

April 16, 2017 By Elizabeth@ Pine Cones and Acorns 6 Comments

Good morning! Happy Easter weekend. Did you have the week off? I didn’t but I am taking today off to get ready for the holiday, I have a little baking to do, some flowers to buy and that is about it. 

Image from Design Enthuasium

If you are looking for a little inspiration for your Easter table design, this blue and white table-scape from Designthuasium is beautiful and includes many items you may already have at home like the blue and white Chinoiserie vases, blue glasses, the white linen tablecloth and napkins. If you don’t have the bird plates than pull out your bunny plates or perhaps a flowered salad plate to add a touch of Spring. 

Image from So Much Better with Age

If you wan to set a more whimsical table and something that I am sure that your kids or grand kids would love this fabulous Peter Rabbit inspired table from Jamie at So Much Better with Age is perfect. Frankly I would love to eat my Easter dinner at this table. I think my favorite part is the cloche filled with carrots and the Beatrix Potter books! You could even pick up a few books from the bookstore and give them as Easter gifts.

Chocolate Chunk Hot Cross Buns from Simply Delicious via Pinterest

It would not be Easter without some sweet treats, like these scrumptious looking Chocolate Chunk Hot Cross Bun from Simply Delicious.

I will be making either a pan of Almond Sweet Rolls which are light, fluffy and a little change from cinnamon rolls.

 Or if I am pressed for time I will be whipping up a batch of these Rhodes Cinnamon Pecan Rolls, they are so easy and delicious and they start with Rhodes bread dough. 

Diy Sprinkle Eggs from Let’s Mingle

Did you color your Easter eggs yet? If you are looking for a new way to decorate your Easter eggs look no further than these easy, DIY Sprinkle eggs from Let’s Mingle. 

Image from The Speckled Palate

Do you need a cocktail for Easter brunch? This Strawberry Champagne from the Speckled Palate would be a great addition to your Mimosas and Bloody Mary’s. 

As for dessert, you can never go wrong with a cake.

White Cupcakes with Whipped Buttercream Frosting

Or cupcakes, these White Cupcake with Whipped Buttercream Frosting are some of my favorites to make for any holiday and you can make extra to give to your guests to take home.

What are your plans for Easter? Will you be traveling, if so be safe. Will you be hosting a brunch or lunch? If you will be do you have any recipes to share with us? I love hearing about other peoples menus so feel free to let me know about your main course, dinner rolls and dessert.

Have a happy and safe weekend. Happy Easter.

P.S. If you need recipes, tables top ideas, egg dying or anything that has do with Easter, check out my Easter Pinterest Board I have pinned a plethora of ideas.

    Those hot cross buns look good!

    I spent yesterday afternoon wandering through a couple of cemeteries here, one of which includes a national military cemetery.
