So you usually include something that hops around your lair at easter – well we are challenging you this year to change your bunny focus to
Art of the Spa’s spahome spring/easter decor must are “bugs” of a different sort – Grasshoppers! Not only are grasshoppers omens of good luck in feng shui, but they are a cheery spring green to boot. Even eggs work with them – because who says that bunnies have the monopoly on eggs?
Now I’m not talking going mad – but scattering them throughout your home and entertaining areas. Their fresh grassy facade goes well with all the yellows, pinks and other pastels we associate with Spring. AND you don’t automatically have to put them away right after Easter.
While grasshoppers are not as readily available as bunnies, this is actually a good thing. Think of all the overwhelming options you can eliminate instantly! To get you started, here are some fun finds:
