Dreaming of Spring

We're already dreaming of spring and summer - literally a few weeks away! So this may be premature but we know you'll love these pretty, flowery tags from Eat, Drink, Chic (read these instructions first for info on the cute font) and use them lots for gift tags, tying around bunches of flowers, or how about around the necks of homemade drinks at your summer parties.

DIY Notecards

I love stationery and greeting cards especially, but for some reason often find myself without a card when I need one. You might find yourself in the same predicament this Sunday if you've been too busy to pick up the perfect Mother's Day card, even if you're organised this time I know this simple DIY printable notecard set will save the day eventually! The striped set by A Creative Mint via Creature Comforts is so clever as it fits a business size envelope which we all usually have lurking in a draw! And I just love that the envelope seal sticker has also been included. Enjoy!

Happy Easter Weekend!

So lovely to have a four day Easter weekend ahead of us, which I've already enjoyed by making a very late start! So just in time for Easter on Sunday here are some of our favourite product finds and ideas this Easter - it's a bumper post as our first on Inspired Wife. 

This is a favourite each year - the classic Lindt Gold Bunny - gorgeous and delicious!

(Variety of sizes available from most supermarkets.)

Another annual favourite - Beacon's white eggs, I just love the yummy white shell and chocolate centre, and everyone has their own way of eating one! Woolworths brought out these great wire egg cups this Easter (they come with a foil covered chocolate egg) - you can use them throughout the year and they're made by a disadvantaged community so even more reason to buy one, or a whole set.

We love printables - easy, creative projects that add a special touch to any occasion. There are so many great people sharing their creativity and imagination on the web and we'll share our favourite finds. Here are some great little touches for Easter.

Baking cupcakes this Easter? Click here for sweet cupcake toppers from Skip to my Lou - these would also make good decorations on ribbon tied around serviettes.

Welcome your guests, or just the Easter bunny, with a cute  Hoppy Easter banner - find it here at The Monogram Monkey.

I love this collection of Easter tags and goodie bag tags - click here to download from Hip Hooray.

And then my favourite Easter recipe find this year from Food & Home Entertaining magazine - the scrumptious looking hot cross buns with nut filling and cinnamon-vanilla syrup. Check it out on page 46 of the April 2010 issue.

Have a wonderful long weekend, and a very Happy Easter!
