French Vintage Spring Tour + Easter Egg Stick Garland + Video
Spring is slowly upon us! Check out my French vintage spring tour and how to make an Easter egg stick garland.
Today I’m showing you my French Vintage spring tour and also how you can create a fun and unique spring or Easter garland made from a stick!
I’ve had so much fun decorating for spring this year because it’s soooo cold and yucky outside and I’m hoping that all these flowers inside will help with the growing of them outside.
Come on, spring!
I’ve already shown you my kitchen all decked out for spring, the Happy Easter and Bunny printables on a pallet sign, and the super cute glass Easter jars with bunny ears.
I’m also participating in the Cozy Spring Homes blog tour hosted by Rachel of Shades of Blue Interiors and Country Living Magazine so be sure to check out all the spring inspiration at the end of this post.
For the last year that I’ve been in my new house I’ve been slowly adding pink. It’s amazing how that happens when it’s just me and the kids living in the house 😉
My neutral furniture is the perfect backdrop for the touches of pink flowers and pillows.
Even some old books got some pink treatment with a beautiful pink ribbon.
I just did a post on these spring flower printables on the silver platters. Such an easy way to add some unique art to your walls.
Flowers can be added to multiple little containers, in this case mini pitchers, instead of large vases.
Some more pink ribbon wrapped around an old French bible I picked up in France last year for Heather Bullard’s The Academy.
I love these faux flowers I found at a local florist shop. They’re perfect added to an apple basket.
I picked up these Rae Dunn Easter mugs and plates from Home Sense the other day. Too cute!
I love the Peter Rabbit inspired Easter table I created. The carrots under the cloche are my favourite!
Easter Egg Stick Garland
Here is the little project I made this week that is so cute!
These little eggs I bought years ago but I recreated them here.

Supplies:
- a stick smaller than the size of the window you want to hang it in (literally just a stick, actually my son found it for me)
- floral ribbon
- Command Hook
- twine
- scissors
- Easter egg ornaments (you can see the ones I made here)
Directions:
- Place two Command Strips a little bit closer in width than the stick above the window.
- Add your eggs to the stick. These eggs spell out Happy Easter.
- Measure approximately the ribbon length you’ll need to suspend the stick from. Double that length and fold in half. You’ll need two ribbon lengths for each end of the stick.
- Cut a slit through the top of the ribbon making sure to go through both ends.
5. Hang the ribbon through the slit you’ve cut.
6. Add some twine under the hook and tie in a bow.
I love how it turned out!
Projects that are simple, natural and beautiful are the best kind of projects.
In the photo below, you’ll see what it looked like before I decorated the drying rack (AKA cup rack) with flowers.
I’m so glad you joined me in this tour today.

Love your blog and decorating. Can you tell me where you got your living room chairs and ottoman? Love the vintage linen. Thx Rebecca
Thanks Rebecca! I got the couch from Pottery Barn (secondhand) but I recently bought the grey slipcover for it. The ottoman I purchased at Home Sense years ago. I found some similar ones and have them in this post: https://somuchbetterwithage.com/shop-my-house/
