Easter DIY's

I figured that I should've uploaded this post before Easter but I just didn't have time due to the busy weekend that has just passed. I've come up with a few ideas to share with you that you could probably make for spring as well as Easter.  

Rice Crispy Cakes

These are so delicious and irresistible. I cannot say that I made these myself 😕 but they were so tasty, I asked for the recipe and it turns out it's at this link: http://www.funkidslive.com/food/chocolate-rice-krispie-cakes/

Easter Tree

To make this cute Easter-themed tree, (which is a tradition in our household) you will need to go outside and find a branch from a tree that has enough branches but the perfect size to fit it in your house. I also used a white pot in which I stuffed with yellow tissue paper to support the tree.

You also make some eggs, decorated with chicks, bunnies, patterns and Easter images, hole-punched at the top and hung up with thread. For added effect, I placed little chicks in the branches and on top of the yellow tissue paper in the pot.

Easter Confetti

For the scene, I decided that it was quite bland and so it needed some bursts of Easter colours. Hence why I made the confetti. It was so simple! I just laid different colours of tissue paper on top of each other, folded it and cut them to size. Here was my experiment with them (photography wise):

Easter Biscuits

These were made with the Mary Berry's Easter Biscuit recipe (exchanging the lemon zest for satsuma zest): https://www.bbc.co.uk/food/recipes/mary_berrys_easter_46791

Festive Nails (Nail Varnishes linked at bottom of page)

Here is how I created these Spotty, Easter nails:

Step 1
Paint two coats of pastel colours on your selected nails. I did yellow on the thumb and baby finger. On the index and ring finger, I chose blue. Finally, Pink on the middle finger.

Step 2

Use a toothpick by sticking it into the brush, like this:

And dab on all the nails in dots apart from the middle finger where I angled it slightly so it gave more of a leaf-like design.

Step 3
Leave to dry apply a clear top coat and, once dry, they're complete!!!

I LOVED creating this scene to take my photos in front of and so may have gone a bit overboard with the photos. Here are a few more:
