DIY Easter Project Round Up

Can you believe that Easter is just around the corner? It really snuck up on me this year! While we've got lots of fun plans to celebrate at church and with family and friends this weekend, I didn't get a chance to craft up any fun Easter projects this year. Wop wop. But it's okay, I ate enough Easter candy for all of us : ) Those Hershey chocolate Easter eggs are the devil coated in a hard candy shell.

But next year, I'll have a little guy to make an Easter basket and to decorate for (what? I'm sure he'll know how to dye Easter eggs with the best of 'em at seven months, right?) so I've been furiously bookmarking a ton of great spring + Easter projects this season.

Get that Pinterest button ready, because I've rounded up some great DIY spring and Easter projects. And get this- most of these projects are complements of Ten June readers!

Loving... Christmas House Tour From Amanda Carol

I've already featured her mantel, but I just couldn't get enough of the lovely Christmas decorations over at Amanda Carol at Home. Amanda's stunning home has somehow been made even more beautiful by her absolutely fabulous, magazine-like Christmas decorations. And I just had to share with all of you!

Head on over to her blog to check out more of Amanda's crazy good talent.

Loving....

My girl, Katelyn.

And because I don't ever talk about my friends on the blog without sharing an old picture of us, here goes:

Prior to hosting our group of girlfriends last weekend (for a couples shower honoring our

lovely friend, Kacey, who is getting married in TWO WEEKS!),

Katelyn decided to do a mini-makeover of her already gorgeous living room.

And the result?

I knowwwww, right? Adorable! Here's the low down on her transformation.

This is Katelyn's living room when they (they being her and her husband, Max) moved in.

BEFORE

And her decor as of a few weeks ago.

And now!

AFTER

Katelyn and her mom (hi, Lea!!) thrifted the chair under the window.

A coat of white paint and some fabric later, they had this beauty.

And check out the new pillows Katelyn and Lea made.

So fresh and bright, isn't it? My kind of girl.

Remember over the holidays, when I shared Katelyn's Christmas decorations with you? And all of you said "oooh, she should get a blog!" Well guess what? She did! Go check it out.

Katelyn Miller Designs

She also just posted on the couples shower here. Lots of good party hosting ideas

(and cute pics of me and my friends, like this one!)

(I'm second from the left, Kate is second from the right!)

How much do you love Katelyn's living room?? I'm so lucky to have such a talented friend!

Happy Friday to everyone! Have a faaaaaaaabulous weekend : )

Featured Projects: Fall Decor

In case the mound of rubble in my master bathroom didn't give it away, I've been slightly preoccupied with our bathroom renovations this week. Oh yes, and that 13 hour work day I had yesterday. Phew. Even though fall is my FAV-OR-ITE season, I haven't had a chance yet to break out all of my fall decor. Well, that and the fact that I'm lacking a little motivation because the weather here in Georgia isn't incredibly fall-ish (hellooo 91 degrees today!). 

But many of you out there in the blogging world have already gussied up your homes with some beautiful autumn decorations. I can't even believe how creative some of you ladies get! Here are some of my favorites.

Pine Cone Fall Mantle from Tracy's Trinkets and Treasures

DIY Fall Topiaries from Decor Chick

Magnolia Wreath from Centsational Girl

Adorable Stuffed Owl from Pony Tails & Fish Scales

Fall Wreath from Crafty Land

Silver Pumpkins from Hooked on Houses

Sooo maybe those muffins aren't decor... but they look amazing! I looove pumpkin flavored stuff. Just wait till I share my world-famous pumpkin cake recipe later in the season.... MMMM! Thanks for all of your creative ideas! Feel free to comment with a link to your newest fall project- the more inspiration, the merrier.
