Easter is such a wonderful time of the year. Not only do we start enjoying some increasingly warmer weather but the long weekend is an ideal time to get together with family and friends. But how do you make this year’s Easter weekend something special?
Here are just a few ideas to get you started.
Throw an Easter Party
Whether you go all out or just have a small, intimate gathering, throwing an Easter Party can be a great way for you to spend time with your loved one. There are lots of decorations out there but so many of them are single use and disposable. As our products are either all original vintage items or made from recycled or sustainable wood sources, choosing one of our products helps your Easter Party be eco-friendly!
A couple of our favourite Easter decor items are:
- A Personalised Tray to serve drinks or treats on.
- Mason Ball Jars are perfect as vases for your spring flowers. Alternatively, simply fill them with Easter Eggs for people to snack on.
- The Rustic Crown Ornament makes a wonderful centrepiece to any table, especially when combined with seasonal flowers.
Oh and don’t forget, you can easily add your house name or number to our Personalised Apple Crates to stop your guests from getting lost!
Easter Egg Hunts are always a winner
Whether you are young in age or at heart, everyone loves an Easter Egg Hunt, both for the thrill of finding the treats as well as enjoying them afterwards!
Help the Hunters store their stash in style this year. Our Mini Crates can be personalised, so you could give everyone a named crate or include a more general message. Either way, these long-lasting, useful little crates can be enjoyed for years to come!
Arrange an Easter Bonnet Competition
Encourage a sense of fun and creativity by arranging an Easter Bonnet Competition. Simply give those entering the competition some guidelines and then have them show off their Easter Bonnet over the weekend. Whether you award them a prize for “Best Bonnet” or they simply have bragging rights for the year, these competitions can be a fun way to get everyone involved in the celebrations.
And if you are giving them a prize, why not make it a practical, personal gift they can keep and reuse again and again? Which leads us on nicely to our last suggestion…
Gifts that last
Easter is also a wonderful time to give your nearest and dearest an unexpected gift. Whether you are looking for something for the home or garden, our Personalised Crates and Boxes are available in a variety of colours and sizes, so you are bound to find something to suit.
Here are a few gift ideas our customers always find popular:
- Help keep the garden tidy with a Tomato Crate. Whether it is used for tools or plants, this versatile crate is the ideal companion for every avid gardener.
- Our Log Crates are perfect for conveniently storing firewood while you fend off the remaining chill of the early spring mornings. Don’t have a fireplace? No problem. They make eye-catching decorative pieces too!
- Include the family pet in the festivities. Our Dog and Cat Toy crates help keep their toys neat and tidy when not in use and are the perfect way to transport them to where the fun is happening.
There are many other ways you can make the Easter weekend one to remember and we hope these ideas get your creative juices flowing. We would love to see some of the ways you use our products to decorate your home and garden over Easter, so please do tag us on Facebook or Instagram.
