Welcoming Easter Entry with Paperwhites

Sometimes when pieces just "work" for a spot or space I leave them alone. That's what has happened in the Entry here at this house. I changed things up more at the previous house, but this entry is so light and bright it calls for like-minded pieces. It seems that whatever I place here tends to be a neutral color or something that doesn't overpower the basic feel of the space.

It's Almost Easter in the Holiday Cupboard

It seems like just yesterday that I put away all the St. Patrick's Day goodies... oh yeh, that was only last week wasn't it? Ok, so it's a quick turnaround for Easter this year. I really like it when Easter is more toward the end of April instead of the beginning.  That gives us more time not only to decorate, but to enjoy the decor, color, and be able to putz around. My sheep and rabbits stick around for the rest of Spring, but Easter is the prime time for anything bunny related.

Spring is Here at All About Home #84

Hi Friends, 

 Welcome to the All About Home Link Party.

Thankyou for taking the time to come by

and share your week with us.

March is a busy month for Spring,

and Easter will be here before we know it.

We're having some wonderful Spring Inspiration

and great ideas for your Easter celebration.

A Touch of Easter in the Dining Room

I did a light touch of Easter decorating in the Dining Room this year. I wanted to bring in more "Spring" decor than all out Easter decor. My sheep and lambs were let loose to roam in here in late February after I put away all the winter elements. I've mentioned before that much of the time I don't really take it all in until after I've taken photos and I'm sitting down to edit them.

Pretty Pastels and Forcing Tulip Tree Branches

I'm enjoying decorating with a few pastel pieces this early spring, and Easter is the perfect excuse to gather up the pinks, yellows, and blues and have at it. I never plan to go all out for holidays, but often once I get things out and start putting vignettes together I just get carried away. I'm sharing a few soft sweet pastel bunnies here on the Baker's Rack, and my first attempt to force some branches from our Tulip Tree out front.

Using Vintage Dishes in Seasonal Decorating Hop

Hello friends, I'm so happy you've come by today and I hope you'll be checking out the fun that we're having at this bi-monthly Hop, Lifestyle of Love. Cindy from County Road 407 is our hostess with these wonderful vintage themed Hops. If you hopped over from Amber's blog, Follow the Yellow Brick Home, I know you loved her wonderful collection of vintage ironstone, pottery and dishes.

This month our Hop theme is "dishes" if you haven't guessed already, and I can guarantee that you'll find tons of inspiration on using dishes in seasonal decor. Whether you're a die-hard tablescaper and dish collector, or someone like me who just loves using them in vignettes and vintage decor, I know you'll love all the ideas from our group.
