As we celebrate an Easter like no other, even with social distancing and restrictions COVID cases have not been dropping in South Australia. Let’s not have it stop us celebrating the extra-long weekend over Easter and make it a very special time.

To some it can be a good opportunity to do some home improvement projects, to others, it is filled with as many activities as possible. Whatever Easter means to you, South Australia has it all covered and we are here to bring you our Guide to the Easter Long Weekend 2022.

Easter is a great time for a Home Improvement project

The weather is cooling down, you’ll have a good stash of power snacks (chocolate) on standby, and there are four full days to get stuck into the task at hand.

So pop on your favourite podcast series or Spotify playlist, fuel up on the aforementioned chocolate and get ready to be impressed with the improvements you can make to your home in such a short space of time.

Here are some relatively easy DIY projects you should be able to knock over at this time.

  1. Give your home a lift with updating your lighting

Lighting is an area we often take for granted. We’re outraged when there’s a power cut and overwhelmed with the variety of choices when it’s time to buying new bulbs. But a simple exercise like updating your light fittings can really change the entire appearance of your home. It’s an instant and easy way to refresh your space. Instead of going to Bunnings, have a look at these lights from our local vendor Lights on Main and have them delivered in time for your Easter break here:

Easter means Family

What brings people together more than food? Nothing! Get the whole family in the kitchen and create the perfect Easter meal. Why not try one of the local seafood shops for some fresh crayfish and prawns to treat your loved ones?

This is the time when we usually travel miles to be with loved ones we haven’t seen for a while; when grandparents enjoy the sight of grandchildren with chocolatey smiles; when big family lunches are followed by big family dinners; when we watch those feel-good movies together.

That may not be possible – but plenty still is. There are some ideas for you to do even if you can’t visit your loved ones this Easter. Why not organise a virtual video call and do something together such as this wonderful Home Cheese Making Workshop by our Eyre Peninsula vendor Korinya Farm Gate.
