This weekend we were feeling pretty crafty again and being that it was so nice and breezy outdoors, we decided to spend our Saturday evening creating art in our patio with the family. We thought it would be fun to take a break and do some art together, so we all sat outside, painted and laughed our little hearts out. There is just something so admirable about watching your family create art, we love sharing the beauty and joy of it. Below are the photos of the little art fest we had going on here—yes, this is how we love to spend our weekends. We think this is a great way to share some quality time with the family, it’s also very fun! You should try it with your family and friends!

By the way, are you going to be creating any crafty decorations or projects for Easter?
I am anxious to create some new paintings inspired by P A S T E L colors!

If you want to get crafty with the family or kids this weekend, here is a list we created of some fun Easter Decorating Ideas that we absolutely love! If you decide to try any of these ideas or any others, please share a photo with us on our Facebook! We’d love to see your art.

  1. Beautiful Easter Egg Dyeing Techniques via Martha Stewart
  2. Super fun & easy Easter Egg Garden via Parents Magazine
  3. Sweet Peeps Bouquets & S’mores via Your Home Based Mom (This one is too cute, I might just try this one myself)

Hope you enjoy these ideas and don’t forget to share your art with us!
