Easter egg jars and Styling the Seasons

Ah, March – all those chocolate eggs and hot cross buns to get us through to the first day of spring. They are so tempting aren’t they? It’s all the cute bunnies and chicks that lure us in, their little faces telling us there are no calories in the chocolates, that we can go on and just eat them all!

I bought a few different kinds of eggs the other day to see how they looked in these jars, and they look so pretty I think it’s a really nice idea if you want to give something a bit different this Easter. The little milk bottles are from Lakeland and they’re decorated with parcel ribbon from Paperchase. Such an easy thing to do but so appealing to little ones.

I have to say, after taking these photos the bottle of eggs has been eyed up by Sam and Florence, and last night we cracked (no pun intended) and broke into them for our movie night snacks. The only problem being which to go for first – I mean we know they all taste the same, but to a toddler, the spotty pink ones are entirely different to the stripey blues, aren’t they?

These beautiful flowers were delivered to me last Saturday, from two good friends to mark what would have been my fifth wedding anniversary. I’m kind of getting used to having so may flowers around the house, I really love the colours of these and irises are one of my favourites.

I’m linking this post up with Styling the Seasons, a series of monthly posts started by Katy from Apartment Apothecary and Charlotte from Lotts and Lots, showing part of your home styled with things reflecting each month for you.
