Bunny Place Card Holder
Still thinking of cute additions you can add to your Easter tablescape? If you already have the dinnerware, table runner and centerpiece covered, it’s time to think smaller. What small detail can you add to really make it feel like a traditional Easter dinner?
One way to make your guests feel special this holiday is to have a personalized Bunny Card Holder from Pottery Barn. The $20 set comes with four holders. The bunnies measure 3” in diameter and 1.5” high. The bunnies have a hair like appearance, because short pieces of straw have been formed over a synthetic base.
If you’re planning on featuring your colored eggs as the centerpiece, these bunnies will definitely complete the look. Then all you need are some napkins that feature fluffy, yellow chicks.
Give Your Easter Tablescape Some Eastern Flair
Did you know that cherry blossoms symbolize a bright future? Now that spring is well on it’s way, you can look forward to your bright future and even have tableware that reminds you to be in a good mood.
The Tranquil Dinnerware from Pier 1 Imports features cherry blossoms in front of a bluish, gray background.
The dinnerware is sold individually, so you can choose from dinner plates, salad plates, cereal bowls, and mugs. The price for these pieces ranges from $5 to $6. Because this set is more square and has a contemporary design, it definitely gives off a modern tone.
If you’re looking to create an amazing tablescape for this coming Easter, incorporate this dinnerware set. It’s inspired by nature, and it has some Eastern flair.

This sofa quickly and conveniently converts into a sleeping area, and it’s suede microfiber will make you feel like you’re in a comfortable bed. Even better is the fact that it can fit two people.
Other features include its style and design, so it’s not only functional, it’s also fashionable. This lounger has detailed stitching on the seat and back, which creates a contemporary appearance. Also, the brushed chrome adds to this effect.
With this green sofa lounger, you can sit and sleep comfortably in the same piece of furniture. If you need extra space to accommodate guests, a lounger is a great piece to have in your home.
Have a Heavenly Sleep on a Down Mattress Pad
Getting eight hours of sleep every night can be challenging when you have a hectic lifestyle or when you’re bed doesn’t feel right. Maybe switching to a softer mattress is exactly what your body needs. However, you can make your current mattress more comfortable without buying a new one.
A down mattress pad like this Quilted PillowTop Down Mattress Cover will envelop your body in soft, warm pockets of cotton. It will also give your mattress a little bit of a lift, and it might be just enough to turn your hard mattress into something more manageable. This mattress cover has pure white down fill and a 400 threadcount cotton cover.
If you’re looking for a cheaper version, you can purchase a down alternative mattress cover at a fraction of the price. Although it won’t have the down feathers, it will still give you a softer surface to sleep on.
Turn the Bathroom Into a Spa with Candle Wall Sconces
Would you like your bathroom to have a softer, more relaxed atmosphere? Candles are definitely a way to create a spa like bathroom setting.
The Leaf Wall Sconce with 3-Votive Cups from Target is a simple and inexpensive way to soften your bathroom. Since this is a hanging wall decor, the candles will be out of a child’s or pet’s reach. If you have enough space for three, you can stagger the wall sconces and really bring the wall to life. This oil-rubbed bronze iron sconce measures 15 x 2.75 x 16.
You would have to purchase three votive candles, because they’re not included. However, you can always change the candles and have a different color when you become bored of the first color.
Instead of the bathroom, this wall sconce can go in your foyer or bedroom to fill empty wall space.
Curved Shower Rod Gives You More Space
Have you ever been to a hotel that has a curved shower rod? If you have then you know how nice it is to have some extra while you’re showering. You can get this look for under $40.
The Creative Specialties by Moen 5′ Curved Shower Rod comes in chrome or brushed nickel. Since the rod is curved, it will enable you to have some more movement in the shower so you don’t feel so limited. These rods are easy to install, and it will give your bathroom a more luxurious look.
If you’re unsure whether a shower rod such as this one would work in your bathroom, it’s best to buy one and take one home so you can see it in person. Because the rod does come out farther, you might not be able to install one if you have a toilet right outside your shower. In this case, it could make your bathroom look smaller, and it will be a hassle when you use your toilet.
Water-powered “Magic” LED Showerhead
We’ve looked at fancy showerheads before (the Dream Light Rain Canopy, the Kohler water tiles, a star-shaped ceiling mounted shower, and the Hansaclear Lux showerhead to name a few), and we’re going to mention another today. The LED flashing Magic Showerhead just looks fun.
Available in handheld or fixed, the showerheads are designed to light up your morning shower. What’s your fancy? Red? Orange? Green? Blue? Numerous color options are available, and you can even get multi-color versions that cycle through a rainbow.
The colorful streams of light are powered by the waterstream itself, so there’s no need for batteries or fancy electrical wiring.
The showerheads start at $40 and are simple to install, so this is one bathroom upgrade that won’t break the bank. Try one in the children’s bath to make the kids smile.

Rainwater Collection… Rock
If you’ve wanted to collect rainwater for watering your grass or your garden in the dry months, but you’ve been disinclined to have a big ugly rain barrel in your yard, you might like to try something a little different. Like a rainwater collection rock, perhaps.
The sandstone rock is hollow and can hold 40 or 80 gallons of water, depending on the size you get. They come with a downspout diverter, so you can simply connect your current gutter system to the water storage stone without any extra parts required. You can also link two of the stones together for extra storage capacity. Put a couple on each downspout, and you’ll soon have plenty of rainwater to keep your vegetable garden growing all summer.
The rainwater collection stones are available at Northern Tool for $130 (40 gallon) or $200 (80 gallons):
