Getting Your Home Ready for Guests
- It always helps to clean throughout the week so you aren't spending the morning of Easter Sunday scrubbing the toilets and sinks!
- Ask everyone in your home to help out by trying to tidy up daily and clean up after themselves.
Plan your Menu in Advance
- To organize your menu planning touch base with all of your guests that may be bringing an entree, dessert or beverage.
- Make a list of everything you will need for your menu at least one week prior from food to paper goods.
- Before heading out to the grocery store be sure to check to see what you may or may not already have in your cupboards and fridge. It's a time saver at the market!
- To be extra creative create an Easter dinner menu for your guests, preparing this in advance helps you with the preparations as well!
Table Preparation
- Set your table before the day of the event, possibly one or two evenings before. It's one last thing you have to do the day of! This also gives you time to set up extra seating.
Create a time list
- It's very easy to lose track of time when you are running in a few different directions. Create a time schedule for the day of which outlines what you hope to accomplish. This will help keep you on track and ready for your guests.
Budget Friendly Easter Decorating Ideas
