Remember how exciting it was to sprint to your Easter basket right after waking up to see what the Easter bunny brought you?
And then to swiftly devour Peeps and Cadbury Eggs and chocolate bunnies and jelly beans, all before 8am?
Oh, the long-lost days of the high metabolism.
I'm not giving up all Easter sweets, but here's my wishlist for this year's basket!
{1} Jelly Beans
I'm a total jelly bean lover, and of course Jelly Bellys are so delish. I would have to say that pink grapefruit and canteloupe are my very favorite flavors. Oooh, and toasted marshmallow!
{2} Seche Vite
Instead of asking for nail polish this year, I'll just ask for another bottle of Seche Vite! This product has revolutionized my nails. I used to think that I had to go with Essie or OPI nail polish to get staying power -- but this little bottle ($8) can turn bargain brands into a salon-worthy manicure! I love the little $0.99 nail polishes by the cash register at Sally Beauty Supply, and with Seche Vite on top, they look just as good as the expensive brands.
{3} Cheery Potholders
This set from Vera Bradley ($22.50) would look so darling in our kitchen, and added bonus: the busy print camouflages any food stains that you may get from taking that piping hot cheesy casserole out of the oven. Don't act like it doesn't happen to you.
{4} Nest Votives
This Wasabi Pear Votive ($14) may cost more than your traditional votive, but we are huge Nest fans in our little family due to how strong they are! The votives last a long time and fill up the entire room with their scent.
{5} Kendra Scott Danielle Earrings
One small pair of earrings that really makes a statement. And better yet, you can buy them ($60) through Zappos (here), which gives you free shipping and return shipping -- not that I think anyone would need return shipping on these beauties!
What's on your wishlist for the Easter Bunny this year?
