free easter printables for you

 Last year, the oh-so-talented Lindsay and I collaborated on this set of prints for the Easter season. The mix of her lovely lettering, pretty watercolor backgrounds and my favorite Easter-morning saying makes for a cheerful collection.

Using Lindsay’s artwork as inspiration, I played around with some holiday table settings.  There are lots of do-it-yourself ideas here as well as simple ways to set a pretty table. Perhaps it can inspire your Easter decorations again this year.

and the perfect little place cards

printed paper + ribbon-tied napkin + coordinating chocolates in a pretty dish

with a lovely print to send home with each guest

fresh flowers + pretty china + playful polkadots

paper plates + candy appetizer + crepe paper flower

a name tag tied to a flower makes a special party favor

. . . . . . . . . . .

So does that give you any ideas for your Easter table?

If you would like to use Lindsay’s artwork as part of your decoration, we have put together a great collection for you.

This is a printable file with each of these designs in all three colorways {teal, green, navy}.

You can print as many as you need, give them as gifts or use in your own home.

how to make a tissue paper flag banner {tutorial}

Here’s something I have learned about myself through putting all these tutorials on the blog: almost every one could be described as simple. Simple pillow. Simple paper flower. Simple embellished tshirt.

Today’s project is no different. Actually, it’s probably the simplest of all, which makes it one of my favorites because you can whip this out in just a few minutes.

Just the kind of projects I like.

I present you with: how to make a tissue paper flag banner.

These little flags were made at one am the night before Audrey’s party. I know, that’s crazy. I thought so too when I looked at the clock.  But they really made the table area festive and I’m so glad I did this.

Here’s what you need:

flag-banner---supplies-needed

:: tissue paper {mine is from here}
:: twine
:: scissors, paper cutter and tape {oops, not shown}

STEP ONE: fold a stack of paper and cut in strips.

STEP THREE: cut notches out of the bottom of each rectangle

STEP FIVE: cut twine to desired length. Just string it up where you’ll hang your banner and add a few inches.

STEP SIX: tape the back of each flag to the twine, leaving a few inches between each flag.
