Are You Dyeing Easter Eggs Today?
My favorite part of Easter has always been dyeing eggs. Not especially competitive, I couldn't care less for the hunt. But crafty as I am, I always enjoy getting my hands inked up and smelling like vinegar.
Roundup: Contemporary Baskets
I wont be hunting for any Easter eggs this year, but if I were, I'd want to put them in a contemporary basket. The requisite pastel pink and purple baskets are festive and traditional, but it's 2009. It's about time for some modern Easter decor — at least for grownups.
Roundup: Weekend DIYs
This weekend, I've found some very cool Easter-related projects, as well as ways to decorate your home or update old furniture with a fresh Spring look. To get all of the details, check out the slideshow.

Roundup: Eggs in Your Place
I don't know about you, but I'd much rather have eggs in my place than egg on my face, which is why I was on the hunt again for fabulous Easter-inspired egg finds. Yesterday I showed you chicks, and today I present you with eggs. One of my favorite egg accents is the Droog Design Egg Vase ($146).
How Would You . . .
Happy Easter! Did someone in your family or circle of friends receive a cute basket from the Easter Bunny today? If so, I bet all of you eco-savvy Casa readers aren't going to just throw that basket out.
The Card Shop: Hippity Hop Letterpress Bunny Card
Although it may not exactly be tradition to send cards for Easter (Christmas, yes; birthdays, yes), I'd be delighted to receive this Hippity Hop Letterpress Bunny Card ($3.50). I'm loving the cute bushy tails and long whiskers of this quintuplet of rosy bunnies. Considering that Easter is fast approaching, and Spring has officially sprung, I most definitely endorse sending some in celebration of the vernal equinox, too.
Etsy Find: Block Print Bunny Stuffie
In anticipation of Easter, I figured I should throw some more rabbits at you. Well, not literally, but figuratively anyhow. If any rabbit pillow could be cool, the Art Goodies Block Print Bunny Stuffie ($14) most definitely is.
Cool Idea: Fabric Easter Eggs
Kristin from Sew Mama Sew has presented an adorable project just in time for the Easter bunny. She writes,
A couple of years ago I started sewing fabric eggs. I love the feel of them and so do kids.
Roundup: I Want Some Bunny to Love
While most people associate the Easter bunny with the Christian holiday, according to Saxon tradition, the Easter bunny is the earthly symbol of the pagan goddess Eostre who was worshiped in the pagan festival of Eastre, which was a celebration of Spring. Only much later, when Germans brought the legend to the United States, was the Easter bunny integrated into Easter Sunday festivities.
Whatever the stories surrounding the origin, I love the Easter bunny — heck, I love all bunnies (unless they get in my garden, and then I get hopping mad).
