Shopping For Easter Pt II

 
Have you started shopping for Easter yet?
As you have seen from my first post about Easter Shopping (here) I’m quite excited about all the wonderful Easter goodies popping up on shelf stores. So today I thought I’d share with you some goodies from two wonderful stores.. Spotlight and Bed Bath N Table.
Now I must warn you if you do not wish to visit these stores in danger of hurting the hip pocket than this post is not for you.. BUT if you’re after some idea of what’s out there then take a look.
First stop Spotlight...
Spotlight sure does have a great range of Easter goodies.
From assorted cello wrap and treat bags to moulds and cup cake sets anything you need for homemade gift giving I’m sure you’ll find it here.
 
I plan on getting my two and a half year old son to help with some homemade chocolate eggs this Easter and so I was extremely happy to see the great range of Easter chocolate moulds.
 
 
I already had this wonderful silicon mould that I picked up at the end of season sale last year however this year I’ve also grabbed the smaller mini egg moulds as this size will be perfect for our Easter egg hunt.
 
Also perfect for Easter hunts are these cardboard bunny foot cut outs. Lachlan is going to love following these to his surprise present from the Easter bunny. And I just could not resist getting my markers to them to add a little colour.
 
I just adore the little basket cello treat bags... What a bargain at 70c for a pack of 15. As I have no kiddos in school yet I’m not sure what the Easter gift giving situation is but I’m thinking they would be great with a few mini eggs inside as a gift for kids to give their classroom friends.
 
As we have no need for so many we opted for a smaller pack of 6 bunny gift bags that Lachlan can give to his small handful of friends he has right now.

Easter doesn’t have to be all about eggs, why not cook some cup cakes for an alternate to chocolate. I can see delightful little carrot cup cakes in these gorgeous cup cake wrappers placed on the cute bunny treat stand. 
 
Now this has to be my most exciting find!!
I wanted something other than a heap of chocolate to give the kids this year so when I came across these growing chic eggs at spotlight I almost squealed in excitement! You pop the egg into a glass of warm water and in 12-24 hours the egg shell will break. You then refill with cold water and over the following 24-48 hours watch the chick grow to full size. The kids are going to LOVE them and they are going to be so much fun I can not wait!!
 
Now my all time favourite shop for Easter decor... Bed Bath n Table.
I could spend hours drooling over the divine products in this store! In fact the first time I visited Bed Bath n Table’s Easter range it was too difficult for me to choose what to buy and so I left empty handed.
 
There are so many items that I could take home with me from adorable bunny figurine to the cute cake stands.
 
They have divine egg cups and mugs, and a gorgeous selection of soft bunnies.
Pink to yellow, green or blue they have decor in every colour with such a selection of goodies from foam eggs to ceramic pots and everything in between. I highly recommend that you go and have a look if you plan to decorate your home this Easter.
 
So there you go I’ve done the shopping work for you sussing out what’s out there now all you need to do is go and grab whatever tickled you fancy. I hope some of you enjoyed the Easter window shopping with me.
 
Until next time take care, smile and be happy
