Decorate the house

Creating a holiday atmosphere around you is one of the main parts of Easter preparation. Get a beautiful tea service set, arrange some flowers and make a seating plan so that on Easter Day everything goes festive and easy.

Bake Easter cakes

Have you already found a cake recipe on the Internet? Or maybe you have a signature one that has been tested through the years? To make it especially delicious this year, compile a list of must-buy ingredients (include chocolate and nuts), go shopping in advance and then start baking cakes the day before Easter.

Paint eggs with natural ingredients

One of the Easter traditions implies painting eggs with natural ingredients and paying a lot of attention to colours. For instance, yellow is the color of a rich harvest. Red symbolizes love, life and energy, while blue means the sky and eternity. Green is for spring and inspiration, renewal of nature. But the coolest thing is that all these colours can be made of organic dyes like beetroot, onion, turmeric or spinach.

Play an egg hunt

If you’re celebrating Easter with family, don’t forget to prepare an egg hunt game for kids. Buy some chocolate eggs and baskets, so that children have where to collect their findings.

Stay minimalistic

Minimalism is a visual trend in 2019. However, it goes philosophical. Taking Easter flatlays for Instagram, remember that every image should tell a story.
