Remember that time Photo of the Week was just a bunch of photos of Easter-related crafts I did in the past seven days? Oh right that was NOW. You guys may have caught on that I’m an enthusiastic crafter, baker, and all around holiday-celebrator — hobbies that are often neglected when I’m living out of a backpack. So, let’s just say I was making up for lost time. Considering this is the first Easter I’ve spent in the USA since the advent of Pinterest, eggs all over America were quaking in fear of my bedazzling gun.
In reality, this has been a pretty stressful time where my income is in flux and my future is very much up in the air (more on that soon, I promise). Taking some time this week to bake and craft with friends and fam has been a nice way to come up for air after long hours spent crunching numbers, hunching over business plans, and crying in the fetal position while doing my taxes.
Hope you all are having an egg-celent day, wherever you are. And before I start in on the bunny puns, how about we head right over to these Photo of the Week candidates?

Easter egg love from Alex in Wanderland
Which photo is your favorite? Happy Easter!
love the egg! So cute! Having time to be crafty is so wonderful
Agreed. It is something I truly miss when I’m traveling — the time and space to be creative.
E – I love the colour!
Thanks π I always loved dyeing eggs.
I would go for Photo C – mostly because I am a fiend for all things cupcake. Yum!
Thank goodness for Pinterest π Love that design.
Anyone who does not choose a dog in bunnie ears has a heart of stone. That is all. Oh, and happy Easter! Remember all is well, change is good and in order to renew we have to shed some stuff, which often stings a bit xxx
Whoa that comment just super cheered me up – totally on point (even if it was aimed at Alex’s problems not mine, ha). Wanderland readers are the best. <3
Sarah is always the wisest woman in the comments, Silvia π Look forward to them every time!
This is too adorable! Have got to go with A, tucker is a babe!
Tucker is blushing…
Errm dog with bunny ears for fave photo- obviously! π Also, great job on the other crafts. Love them all.
Thanks Joella! I searched the house high and low for those ears before remembering they were tucked away with my Burning Man stuff π Doing double duty!
It is a nose to nose deadheat tie.
A – because I am a sucker for a Tucker photo and miss the little guy.
E – my favorite blog in the whole world (I don’t even know why those other bloggers even bother).
Ha, I’ve heard that before…
Gotta go with the first pic of Tucker. What a sweetie. Dogs win every time. π Happy Easter!
Thanks Diane! (This comment is from Tucker!)
Lovely pictures as always! I like the Easter egg best – very creative π Happy Easter!
Thanks Miriam! My sister and mom and I had a great time getting creative with those eggs.
I’m going with photo E this week! Happy Easter Alex!
Thanks Stef! Branding at its Easter best π
Cupcakes or the Card… Hmmmm.
Happy Easter Alex! π
They were both fun to make, but the cupcakes were a bit more delicious! π
I bet the cupcakes were delicious (what flavour?)
Sarah’s mum is right into scrapbooking, and a side benefit is, we get the most amazing hand made cards! π
She is however now sad (and a touch jealous) that in 60 days we are jetting off to see more of the world!
Well maybe you can put her to work making a scrapbook from all your photos and mementos along the way π
aw dog one! too cute. I have a billion pinterest projects that I should do one day… but never will. I like doing them as a “team” with snacks … so I can eat and let my buddies deal with the glue and glitter, then tell my mom I made it! worked when I was 5 anyways
Haha. I’d be the one with the glitter and the glue! This kind of madness runs in my family. My sister hosted a big crafternoon party for Valentine’s Day this year and I was so jealous I couldn’t do the same.
Tough one to choose this week. I will plump for A. Love Tucker’s attitude.
He’s a good sport π
Wow you’re so domestic! I’m not crafty at all. Love the Alex in Wanderland egg. Happy Easter to you!
I can bake, but I can’t cook… and I can craft, but I can’t clean π It’s a good balance, right?!
Alex, your many hidden talents continue to amaze me. I choose E — it’s perfect!
Thanks Becky π In my next life I’m going to be a craft blogger…
The Easter egg is soooo cute. Love it!
Thanks Tammy! Glad you had a good Easter too… I so want to experience Semana Santa someday!
As a lover of crafting and colorful, cutesy creatives myself, I’m totally loving B & C… but I’ll go with E. It’s perfect!
Thanks Kristen π It was so nice to have an excuse to get crafty! I miss the holidays so much when I’m on the road.
Hi Alex,
my first time here. I think the name of your blog is great. I’m a bit of an Easter fan though I’m pretty sure I couldn’t get my dog to sit still to put the ears on. For the brief moments, you got the photos, you did well : )
Cheers
Angus
Thanks Angus! He’s a pretty cooperative pup π Love him!
B & C. Luv the sunny and cheerful arranged flowers and of course, food.
π I’m with you on that! Thanks for voting!
E – i absolutely love the photo and the styling!
It’s egg-cellant xo
A punster after my own heart!
