HAPPY EASTER

     

Happy Easter

 

In your Easter bonnet with all the frills upon it! Well, I didn’t have an Easter bonnet this morning since we are celebrating Easter at home. I do however have an Easter basket with all the frills. I selected a few bulbs and flowers at the garden center yesterday to use in a favorite basket for a centerpiece. Pretty pink tulips and lavender and it smells heavenly

These will go in the flower beds later in the spring to bloom next spring

I decided to set a table in the study using my round table. I am using cream colored round placemats from Etsy,  MacKenzie-Childs Parchment Check dinner and salad plates.  The chargers are glass with gold trim I've had forever.

I love using this table without a cloth, the flatware really pops against the wood

MY EASTER TREE

Decorating an Easter Tree

Easter is being celebrated a little different this year but it will be celebrated. Usually we would have all or some of our family here and I would be busy with a menu plan, setting a table in the dining room and unpacking a lot of bunnies. This year I have set a table for two in the breakfast room since Alabama has a "stay at home" plan in effect and my family won't be able to travel here. I will miss them terribly but the most important thing is they stay safe. I did enjoy pulling my Beatrix Potter collectibles out and used music boxes, figurines and Peter Rabbit place settings here if you missed it. All the bunnies remain packed away but I wanted to use the Beatrix Potter ornaments. I needed a tree. I would love to have a pastel color or white tree but nothing like that in my stash. But, I do have a

Patience Brewster Krinkles tabletop Christmas tree.  

Umm, it has high heel elf shoes and they are red! Definitely won't do. I am low on all craft supplies and ribbons but I found a small roll of pretty light lavender ribbon,

I always loved this color for spring and Easter. Not enough to do the entire tree but I wrapped every

other branch to give it a spring look. Then I though what shall I do about the shoes! I have Easter grass, perfect.

Some of these were gifts I gave to my Mother

in law and she returned them back to me when she started to down size.

Pottery Barn Eggs

 These are some of my favorite collectibles, they are just so sweet. My Easter tree was fun to decorate and I've enjoyed having it on the kitchen island. It's nice to use this little tree again, not just for Christmas. It was a Christmas gift from my son and daughter in law.
