Easter & Spring Tablescape

When what you had envisioned comes together ...and you step back and just ...SMILE!

I put this simple tablescape together using some recently purchased items and what was on hand.

Those cute painted-wood bunny napkin-rings were the final element that had me a bit giddy to pull them altogether for my sweet and simple Easter & Spring tablescape.

I'm very pleased with how this all came together!  It definitely made me smile! :)

Easter is on it's way...Hippity~Hoppity

Easter is on the way and Bunnies and Easter eggs are everywhere at the moment!
How could I not jump at the chance to add some to my decor...or shall I say ... hop to it?!

It’s “Bunny” season!!!  I meant Spring!  Cute bunnies are just so hard to resist, aren’t they?!

Well, Target knows this, so they put these sweet little bunnies out to temp us!...I mean me!

And, I totally fell for it!  Uh, also these cute wooden eggs, and adorable egg cups too!

SPRING IS HERE!!!

I’m so happy Spring is here...

I’m happy sweet little Miss Bunny is here too.  She had me instantly with that cute flower she’s wearing!  She’s letting everyone know...”SPRING IS HERE”

April arrived and she brought us Spring!!  Both the sign and the bunny are from Target, too!  I actually found the sign last year and it goes perfectly with Miss Bunny!

And, how fortunate for me to have found such a pretty green egg while at the grocery store!   You just never know where you'll find cute home decor and accessories these days!

~ Enjoy the little things!!!...

Hello April - Happy Easter

Hello and Welcome to April today!

It’s a beautiful day here on this Easter Sunday and first day of April!  We're having Spring temperatures and getting some spring pollen too.   

Once Spring arrives I tend to wish for the time to slow down and let us enjoy the season for a long while.  It's nice to have longer daylight hours now, and I'm looking forward to the times we'll spend outdoors.

I added this sweet little vignette for Easter and to welcome April.   I found the cute egg planter on a recent trip to the antique mall.  The sweet bunny was a thrift store find from a few weeks ago, I've moved him around to a couple locations and have enjoyed having him around for Spring.  

I hope you have a blessed and beautiful Easter!

Spring & Easter DecorBunny Love

Spring has arrived and it’s quite beautiful.  It's nice to have the back door open and enjoy the day.  

I recently added a little touch of Spring & Easter to my chalkboard with a sweet little somebunny!

~*~ ~*~ ~*~

We’re having a beautiful Spring day today! I’ve almost forgotten how cold it was yesterday on our first day of Spring...Brrrr!  And, it was very windy too...Whewww!

I still had a good day though and even braved the elements to do a little shopping!:)  This sweet bunny and cute little vase below were a couple of my finds!

They're perfect for a little tray styling, along with a few items I already had on hand.  With Easter approaching I am enjoying some bunny love!

Hippity, Hoppity, Easter is on its way!...

Hello SPRING!

It’s here! ...It’s here!  Spring is officially here!  The wait is over now.  My thoughts are all things Spring at the moment.  Spring weather, Spring flowers, Spring everything! 

I put together this little vignette to welcome Spring.  It's my happy "hello" to spring! :)

~Happy Spring Everyone!

Happy Easter!

Easter sure has come quickly, it doesn't seem as if it should be April, and yet we are half way through it!

I did just a little decorating for Easter.  Would you believe these sweet bunnies recently hopped right into my shopping cart?!  I think they knew they would be perfect for my Easter table.  Perfectly adorable!  They are pretty cute so I allowed them to come home with me.  And just as I suspected they were perfect.

This bunny was from my imagination, as I was thinking about how some bunny would be visiting on Easter, as rumor would have it!  My thrifted chalkboard/tray was on the ready for Easter, and my imagination.

I also had to make a bunny face, 'cause I think a bunny face is cute!  Don't you?  Truth be told, I just like to play around with my chalk and chalkboards, and pretend to be an artist! :)

I put together this simple and beautiful Easter tablescape.  My pretty cut-glass and crystal pieces added lots of sparkle.  We had a bright and gorgeous day with blue skies and much sunshine.

We enjoyed an Easter meal/feast all prepared on our Big Green Egg by the mister.  It was better than Easter Eggs!

I hope you had a blessed and beautiful day.

A Hoppy and Happy Easter!...
