Easter Inspiration

Posted by: Coral & Tusk

Independence Day is my top favorite holiday (because I LOVE fireworks and freedom, and summer!) but Easter has always been my favorite traditional holiday. People are generally surprised to hear me say this and I don’t find a lot of people in the same camp. It wasn’t until fairly recently that I realized my absolute love for Easter is all due to my Mom. She provided me with the most magical of experiences year after year through her thoughtful care and preparation. She crafted the most joyous ways of celebrating Easter, which made a huge overall impression on me and clearly ignited my sheer delight for the holiday.

I have to say by “normal standards” I’m sure I believed in the Easter Bunny far too long but I am so happy I did. A large bunny that delivers chocolates, presents, a heartfelt note and colored eggs in a basket to your door- seriously!??? Waking up to Easter morning was as exciting to me as Christmas was. I am so thankful to my Mom for making this occasion so truly memorable and special. It is only now as a full grown adult that I can truly appreciate her effort in providing me with all the possible wonders of a holiday, giving me a beautiful memory bank I still draw from today, and an absolutely unbridled excitement for all things SPRING!

I love celebrating small moments and have a deep appreciation for all the amazing things we do have and can experience, no matter where we are. An appreciation of longer days, bluer skies, warmer weather, and celebrating each new sprout springing up transforming the earth into a full blown glorious landscape of flowering bulbs, shrubs and trees.

And last but not least, the anticipated arrival of the Easter Bunny!

Our Sugar Egg pocket pillow is inspired by handmade panoramic eggs Stephanie received from the Easter Bunny as a child. The highly detailed miniature scenes made of sugar sparked sheer delight every spring. Our rendition of the Easter classic features an embroidered metallic gold leaf border and a stitched daisy chain. Peek inside the egg to find an entire springtime world unfolding, from butterflies fluttering by to flowers blooming. Fox, bear, bunny, chick, fawn and lamb welcome you to their Easter wonderland!

A favorite addition this year to our Easter Collection is the Bunny Basket. Crafted in the shape of an adorable bunny, find both sides embroidered with a white rabbit complete with a pink nose and green eyes. The back of the basket even has a pom-pom tail!

When we photographed the Bunnies and Blooms table runner and dinner napkin, above, we used Stephanie's pastel pink tea set from childhood to set the sweet springtime mood.
