Tackling Easter Decorations

It's time for Tackle It Tuesday with 5 Minutes for Mom . Its' St. Patrick's Day and I am tackling the green over at Happy to be at Home . Here, I am decorating for Easter:-)

My mom collects Beanie Babies and when she moved in a couple years ago, I wanted to incorporate some of her into our home. We have a curio cabinet in our dinning room which we use to get started on our seasonal decorating. So, that is where the Beanie Babies go.

Here is what it looked like before:


And here is what it looks like now:



It's so cheery and really getting me into the mood for spring (like I needed any more incentive:-)

That's it for me. What are you tackling today?

Well, do you know what I am tackling or what I should be tackling?

I am tackling general household tidying up. I should be tackling the taxes (ick). I should NOT be on your blog :)

I love what you did with the Beanies!!

I bought some cotton balls and glue today to make a fuzzy bunny with Yaya. She calls the cotton balls marshmallows! LOL! That girl always has food on her mind.

You are so organized.

Michelle said...

Does a bottle of wine count? Just kidding... although I was tempted :)

I got my donation list for Cinco de Mayo updated and sent off... and sent a reminder to teachers about teacher auctions. And I put laundry away. I was exceedingly busy today, but didn't get anything significant in my mind done.
