I (Mindy) love Easter. Maybe its the pastel colors or the abundance of candy and chocolate. Either way I love to decorate, entertain and eat too much around this holiday...

This beautiful yet easy DIY table decor would be perfect for your Easter brunch or party table or decor around the home this time of year!

Take dry grass {this was from my front yard garden}and wrap it in a circle in a large bowl. spray the grass with water until moist leave overnight to dry. when you remove the grass it will maintain the circle shape.

Note: could you try to make this nest without these steps? sure. but i tried. i wrestled with that dang grass until i was ready to quit! this was my solution and it worked great and has maintained its shape for the last 3 weeks.

Buy wooden eggs. I found these here and i thought they were a great deal and she shipped them quickly and was great to work with.

How to paint:

-i used Martha's paint for the base blue - "surf", yellow - "couscous", green - 50/50 mix of the two
- i used METALLIC brown {any random brand} for the speckles
- use a toothbrush to speckle and spatter the brown paint
{PS - this is kinda messy.}

  5. Just wanted to tell you how much I love your Easter display! Brilliant idea to use the grass from the yard. I'm pinning this under "Why didn't I think of that?" LOL!

  6. Beautiful display, I love it! Quick question...the grass from your yard won't get moldy or gross as it sits out, will it?
