From a citrus EXPLOSION to all natural  egg dyes…

here are a few easy & breezy DIY ideas to try as seen on King 5 and in 425 Magazine.

* How about going fresh squeezed  and treating your guests to a 

help yourself mimosa & blooms  bar! 

Champagne + blood orange, heirloom orange and pink grapefruit are a great mimosa combo. 

Plus, the sliced citrus is mouthwateringly gorgeous set out in a tray!

* For the blooms, take advantage of great deals on tulip bunches right now and color coordinate your flowers

to the citrusy hues. Invite your guests to select a few stems &

create mini bouquets {in recycled French jam jars} at their place settings. {The small bouquets double as

a pretty  guest takeaway!}

* When you’re dyeing your Easter eggs,  consider using all natural veggie

dyes made from quartered & simmered beets and onion skins!

Just quarter 3 red or yellow beets (separately) and simmer for 20 minutes in

4 cups of water, cool and add a tablespoon of white vinegar to set the color.

* Create simple paper Easter baskets with craft store trim & baker’s twine. Add wheatgrass with a

milk chocolate chick on a stick, dyed eggs or blooms to the basket.

For the instructions visit 425 Magazine for more on my Easter Brunch spread!

*  Create an edible centerpiece with a cool crudités tray featuring

unusual veggies like watermelon radishes and rainbow carrots!

Thank you KING 5!

LUV Easter!
