Easter Wonderful


Love this Easter Decor!


This Easter party/workshop sent in by Sharon of Sharon Taylor Designs looks like such a fun event! Party + creativity – what’s not to love, right?! The workshop was held at Pickwick House {based in Springfield, Missouri} and featured Easter themed tutorials by Sharon and guest artist Katie Kring.









PARTY DETAILS, as told by Sharon…“Pickwick House is a design house of interior and event design. We host regular workshops/classes that focus heavily on customized/personalized style. In April’s workshop, I demonstrated how to create pretty embellishments for an “urban-cottage” Easter basket, and guest artist, Katie Kring, showed the inspiring history behind behind pysanky artistry for eggs. Katie also demonstrated a how-to on making a simple pysanky eggs {a custom from the Ukraine}. Then, each guest chose a basket to purchase and filled their baskets with unique, one-of-a-kind items that were exclusively made by local artists for this event.

Hors’ d’oeuvres included: cucumber sandwiches, coconut cupcakes, and iced mint-lemon tea served in vintage punch bowl cups.Each class participant’s place setting included:*one of my taylor-made oversize bows made with strips of raw silk and antique brooches {the tutorial egg was placed on top of bow for a strikingly sweet effect on their favors}.

 These bows were later used to adorn the baskets each guest went home with. The bows were multi-purpose as well…they could be worn as lapel pins.*One duck egg that Katie collected from her ducks that she raises on her farm. She prepared these ahead of time {blew out the yokes and sketched each one with unique designs}* stylus {known as a kistka)* beeswax* candle* pencil and paper for note-taking* cupcake {hors’ d’oeuvre}* Each chiavari chair was embellished with a homegrown carrot {so simple and sweet}* Chandelier was also embellished with the carrots* Small side table was covered in white craft paper and used for dying the eggs. Mason jars held the beautiful dyes.
