Bored? Don't know what to get up to this weekend? I'm here to help! You're welcome! ;)
Whether you have lots of time, or no money at all, hopefully there will be something to bring happiness to your life below!
1. Bake Easter nests!
I will be posting (the best) Easter nests recipe soon! These are super quick & easy, require no stressful cooking and are fun & tasty! I wouldn't blame you if you make these in September (I probably will oops!)
2. Visit Family
Even if this is with who you live with, spend some time with them!
3. Creat an Easter tree!
Decorate a real/fake tree with little eggs and chicks. You can buy or make these! I got mine from Home Sense. They look so cute.
4. Treat yourself!
Buy yourself a little something whether this is from Poundland or Pandora, it is a holiday after all! Coconut Lane have some lovely bits at the moment including beautiful sunnies, homeware, gifts, jewellery and fashion. There is even a lovely sale! I got you - use 'floralplanets20' for 20% off everything (including sale items!)
5. Crafts/DIYS
These are fun and are great with young family members. You could paint some furniture legs a bright colour to make them more Spring-like. Decoupage is so fun! You can buy bits from the Range, craft stores and garden centres. You cover little boxes, letters and animals in glue and stick on torn up patterned paper to create a unique gift/room decoration. Got little money? Why not find some paint kicking about (or pound shop paint) and use your fingers/cut potatoes in half and use them as stamps! You can turn the prints into little chicks and bunnies! This could be turned into wrapping paper or prints!
6. Park
Go to a local park and spend a morning/afternoon with mates and chuck a frisbee about! Socialise (even if it is scary!)
7. Cafe
Whether it's a chain or a cute one-off cafe, treat yourself to a coffee & cake and relax!
8. Gardening
Plant some pretty spring bulbs or flowers! You'll thank yourself later when your garden looks gorgeous for those Instagram posts.
9. TV/Netflix/Films
Catch up on your favourites or watch a film! If you have Netflix, I definitely recommend 13 Reasons Why! Relax, you deserve it.
10. Pamper!
Run a hot bath and pop in an Easter bath bomb, watch YouTube and let your worries go! Plus, you'll smell nice. Put a face mask and onesie on too!
That's it! Hope you have a lovely Easter & eat some chocolate! I'm back at school next week *wipes tear*. Even if you don't have a break, you could do these things after school/work or on a weekend! Happy Easter!
