My favorite part of any holiday is shopping for flowers and doing arrangements for the house. I usually get my flowers from Trader Joe’s or Whole Foods but once in awhile I pop into a local flower store – it is heaven! The colors, the smells… it is so mesmerizing, I could stay for hours. It’s a visual and olfactory overload.

They had an amazing variety of lilies, different colors and heights, these 4′ purple ones came home with me.

Even the counter chairs got decorated but when Sailor, our pup, got all excited and assumed these were for him they had to come out.

Our table will be in light greys and pinks but I love this blue table from Martha Stewart.

Whatever you do make sure that the flowers aren’t blocking people when you sit down! And if there are no flowers, get a pretty bowl and put eggs on it or simply fill a crystal bowl with water and float some tea candles on it! Happy Easter everyone!!!
