Product Description

Product Description

The coming of spring has been celebrated since ancient times. Nature is at her most exuberant, and the glories of the reawakening natural world are there to be enjoyed. This beautiful little book draws inspiration from all this abundance to provide decorative ideas and traditional recipes in celebration of Easter and the new season. Easter captures the spirit of spring, with practical ideas and inspirational projects for the home. Abundant blossoms and the first flowers of the year can be arranged in simple posies or displays, and lush foliage and soft feathers collected on country walks make charming decorative effects. Eggs have for centuries been dyed and decorated as part of the Easter tradition, and there are creative projects in this book for treatments using natural dyes, decoupage, stencilling and gilding. The end of Lent means that convivial feasting plays a large part in the celebrations, and the final section of the book features an irresistible collection of traditional treats, including Truffle-filled Chocolate Eggs, Simnel Cake, Easter Bread and Pashka. Step-by-step sequences illustrate the projects and recipes, and exquisite colour photographs evoke the freshness of the emerging year. This wonderful celebration of Easter and spring will help you to capture the essence of the season and festival with glorious natural decorations and time-honoured foods.

Nice little book 27 Oct 2011
Format:Paperback
Well, it's just a nice little book with some ideas as to how to decorate baskets and eggs traditionally or not so traditionally. The project on the cover was the reason I bought it in the first place. It's not a disappointing buy but not the best either. The recipies are also rather too simple...anyway there are a couple of sweet ,rather romantic ideas. Cute, I'd say!

Not really what I expected 28 Mar 2008
By M. Lyon - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
I was looking for recipes and fun, different things to do with egg decorating. This book is not that. This book is about 50% floral arrangements and floral displays. The pcitures are very nice, though, and it is well laid out. There are 7 ideas for deocorating eggs - all suited more for adults than children (even older children - the designs are very sophisticated or very earthy). There are only 7 recipes. Three of them are for fancy ethnic Easter Desserts which I would never bother to try (even though I LOVE to bake), one for chocolate truffles, one for hot cross buns (been there, done that), one for Greek Easter Bread, and one for shortbread. It's not a bad book per se - if you are looking for some fancy ideas and you have no kids and LOTS of time on your hands around Easter, this book is for you.
