Vintage Easter and Grandma Chic: Friday Finds

Happy Friday, friends! Work continues on the new batten in my dining room, and we’re finalizing plumbing quotes for both of our bathrooms. And yes, I still need to finish painting the trim in the kitchen. I’m procrastinating for no reason whatsoever other than I don’t want to do it. I need to take my own advice of getting stuff done sooner rather than later so it’s not hanging over your head for weeks on end. But for now, let’s talk about fun stuff like some of the treasures I found this week, including vintage Easter ideas and the resurgence of grandma chic.

Get ready to fall in love with vintage Easter decorations from Better Homes and Gardens. I especially like number three on the list that adds carrots to a flower arrangement. Why didn’t I think of that?? I’m going to use this idea for a brunch that I’m hosting this Saturday.

And speaking of Easter decorations, have you ever wanted to dye eggs the natural way but have yet to try it? You need this ultimate guide for naturally dying eggs that shows what vegetables, fruits, and spices to use to get certain colors.

Tour a beautiful kitchen by New England Design Works. From the wallpaper to the eat-in area and everything in-between, I love every inch of this delightful space.

Are you a vintage lover like me? You might already know that “grandma chic” is a rising trend in home décor. Check out these ideas and collectibles from grandma’s house that should always stay in style.

I was so excited to find this article about gardening with gravel. It’s permeable, low-maintenance, and low cost. For the last several years I’ve tried to convince hubby that we should put gravel between our vegetable beds and he’s reluctant to do so. Perhaps this article will do the trick.

And finally, I’ll leave you with this light and fluffy Lemon and Raspberry Cake recipe that’s perfect for spring!
