Easter Blessings!



                                                              Hello everyone,
                             It has been awhile since my last post,but time just seemed to slip away on me. I am sure many of you have been busy as well with Easter preparations etc.
                               I gathered up some of my vintage china and washed them for our Easter table.
                                  I got some beautiful tulips and roses for our Easter table as well.Notice that sunlight streaming in-after several cloudy days we are now in for a sunny spell,
                             I spent some time setting our Easter tables for our family dinner tomorrow  evening.
                             I am using a mix of vintage china in soft pastel colors.


                                 The cross is a reminder of the sacrifice made for us and the reason we celebrate Easter.
                                  The bunny with little treats for the kiddo's.
                                                    Pretty roses.
                                   




Our usual two tables for our big family who all live close by.







            Wishing you all Easter Blessings!

                  I am joining The Rose Garden in Malevik for Easter Show-off .

                              Carolyn

    Hi Carolyn,

    I missed you! I figured you must have been busy with projects. Your table is lovely as always and I am finding myself wanting a mint again! Lol I love the cross. Where did you find it? Winners, maybe? Or, HomeSense?

    The sun streaming through your kitchen window is so pretty to see now. It has been snowing on and off here for the past two days and we are all feeling a little bit of Seasonal Affective Disorder, I think. Easter is early this year so I suppose we can expect colder temps at this time. We just had such a tease these past couple of weeks with sun and warming temps. Sigh. Are the daffys and crocuses still managing to peep their heads up there?

    Your sweet table makes me smile. BTW, where are those beautiful bunny plates? I believe you mentioned you had gotten them at Cracker Barrel a couple years back? Love those! Lol I always enjoy seeing your dishware. Don't know where you stash it all but I am sure you have a place for everything and everything is in its place! lol

    Happy Easter to you and Andrew and the family. Give Lucas and hug from us! And, don't keep the turkey in the oven too long while you snapping pics! Hahaha XO

    Hugs,
    Linda at Beautiful Ideas

    Hi, I bought that little bunny several years ago at Winners (tjmaxx in US) and it has no markings on it so I don't know where it came from ...sorry.Carolyn
