Hi, everyone! Happy Easter!

What’s on your calendar for tomorrow? Are family and friends coming in for the holiday? Are you spending the day preparing for your loved ones’ arrival? I know how much I cherish my weekends, so I’m sure your to-do list is growing by the minute. But don’t forget to take a break from the cleaning and cooking and join me for You’re Home with Jill tomorrow at 8pm ET. I’ll show you how easy it is to make my Pineapple Casserole I shared earlier this week. And, I’ll also show you how to make this!

Doesn’t that just say spring? You’ll be thrilled to know you can “make” this centerpiece in a matter of…oh, let’s see…seconds. All you have to do is find a spring wreath, glass hurricane, and a flameless candle. This particular wreath is something I purchased a few weeks ago…it’s the Bethlehem Lights Dogwood Wreath, H202316. Then, I just put a hurricane and candle I’ve had for ages inside to make a centerpiece.

You can really use any wreath you already own, as well as any kind of decorative hurricane, be it a clear glass or pretty mercury glass vase--even a tall mason jar would look terrific. Just be cognizant of the size of each piece so it balances. The decorative jar or hurricane should fit fairly snugly inside the wreath and should be high enough to be seen over the sides. The candle inside should also clear the sides of the wreath, but shouldn't be as high as or higher than the lip of the vessel.

I’m so excited to see you again tomorrow at 8pm ET. But, if you’re traveling or having a glow-in-the-dark egg hunt tomorrow, I’ll take time now to wish you and your family a very Happy Easter.

From my home to yours,
—Jill
