Spring Mood

With the great weather the past few days I have been outside more, and my mood has definitely improved. Yesterday I removed leaves from the flowerbeds and noticed there's hope for returning plants.

While I wait for real blooms on the outside, I enjoy these artificial ones inside.

As always I've been rearranging...a never-ending practice that keeps me happy. The two grapevine wreaths are hiding that crazy outlet that's in the wrong place above the mantel.

Some spring decorations are starting to appear. 

Rabbits and eggs are the main attractions.

These polka dot ones are my new favorites.

Happy Spring!

Spring is Tardy

My calendar page box said Spring for today. But I have to disagree 'cause we had chill, wind, and even a brief flurry of snow. One mild day this past week I did clean out flowerbeds. That put me in the mood for new plantings, warmer days, and flower blooms.  


I have had my head buried in a very good book that a friend loaned to me.

Unforgettable characters spanning three generations in fictitious Howbutker, Texas, will keep you turning pages.

I keep bringing home quirky one dollar finds -
a thin wooden plaque with a perfect quote, a colorful container with peculiar designs, and a paper heart of many colors. 
















                                                                                                  

A few Easter decorations are out. 

I put together another small canvas.

   I've been working a little on my booth. It needs revamping.

I was hoping someone would purchase the lantern to display a cute Easter rabbit with a few eggs or maybe

buy this sweet Teena Flanner collectible.  

But so far no takers.

When I was in Texas I purchased this soft green pitcher from an antique store in the old part of Celina. The shop is a real treasure trove, and the lovely, elderly couple encourage browsing.

Well, that's a summary for this Sunday evening. Hopefully spring is just around the corner. 

Can't Believe It's Already April

As I did some spring cleaning today, I changed out a few decorations. Three marble eggs nestle up against this rather distinguished rabbit. 

 

 

Scoops in the kitchen windowsill house rabbits and eggs.  

Grapevine wreath shelters these eggs that were blown out, decorated, and saved from previous years.   

 



 Treasured egg collection...how it brings  

back dear memories from past Easters 

 

 

It's getting late, and my rigorous cleaning day is catching up with me.

 

Sweet Dreams 

Hey There

Peeking in to say hi.

Rabbits are showing up here and there.

 



   

Hope your day is blissful.

Easter Touches

A Little Bit of Decorating

I know I sound like a broken record when I say again and again how fast time seems to zip by. It will be Easter before I can pull a few decorations out of the closets. The new little white bird...he's a Dollar Tree find that may work into some sort of spring display. Take care, and Happy Spring!

More Things for Easter

This inexpensive papier-mache rabbit is several years old...the necklace is my favorite part.

Dollar General egg plate has pretty designs...blowing out a few eggs in advance for weekend painting with the grandkids.

Like the brown and blue material scraps used on this bunny.

A spring tag set

Here are a few more plastic eggs I'm decorating with sand and glitter...can't seem to get enough of them. I love the old-fashioned graphics that show rabbits and lambs.
