Mommyhood in Heels and Flats : April 2014

Happy almost-Easter!!! As many of you now already now, I have a "small" passion for decorating a kiddie table for any given holiday. My kiddos are at just the right age to seriously LOVE and enjoy it! I love creating these special memories for them, all while having fun myself getting to be creative, etc. :) It is a win-win! ;)

This year with Miss Bella's birthday party right around the corner, I decided to purchase these buntings via an Etsy shop Peach and Pearl (also on Instagram) and the bunny bunting is from a Group Dealz (don't remember the comany name!). They both give the vintage/shabby chic effect that I so love :)

I fall prey to the adorable chairbacker a that Pottery Barn Kids has almost every holiday. These burlap bunny ones were seriously too cute to pass up! I love "natching" things up when they have 20% off & have our hometown embroiderer add the personalization. I even bought an extra for bebe #3 for next year! ;) I love that these can be used year after year. I always put the cards from the Easter bunny, Mommy, Daddy, & family in here for Easter morning!! The kids LOVE seeing what "mail" they received! :)

As far as the tableware, I also got it at discount at Pottery Barn Kids. The flatware, egg dishes, plates, and cups all came from there. The linen I used for the wall covering & table were from Bella's Vintage Cinderella party last year! :) I love being able to use things over & over again-- all while giving a totally new look!!

Most of the other little decor/knick knack was either Easter decor I already owned or leftover party decor again from Bella's party last year. I used a lot of muted pastels, so jt worked perfectly for this Easter table theme :)

One thing I did pick up this year from Honby Lobby was this adorable birdcage. I thought it added some height & dimension to the table & centerpiece. The kiddies absolutely love & enjoy playing with little birdies and the bird cages I have already, so I knew this would get even more use than just looking pretty ;) haha!

I also had to add a little "chandelier" hanging above the kiddie Easter table to add a final finishing touch!! Again, it was something I had crafted for a parthbthatbwas so nice to be able to use again!!

And just for fun because I am obsessed with a Vibtage Easter look I thought I would share some fun little Easter greetings-- old school way ;) --of course boy & girl-themes for Preston and Bella. :)

To me Easter obviously means so much more than a cute table and fun, sweet memories for the kids with Easter egg hunts, baskets, treats, and Easter bunny visits. These are all traditions I so much love and cherish. But the most important part to remember is that our Savior Jesus Christ rose from the grave on this day. Without Him dying for us there would be no hope for eternal life with Him. I am so beyond thankful for a Savior that gives us the chance for everlasting life in Heaven. This Easter I hope amongst all the joy of this holiday that you stop to remember Him who is the true reason for this blessed holiday.
