Vintage Birdcage Spring Vignette




This time of year, I'm drawn to creating vignettes with plants and all things vintage garden mixed in. Throw in some bird nests, moss, sticks and grapevine; all the better. Then arrange it in/on a vintage vessel.

Using birdcages for vignettes is similar to using a glass cloche, as both cover the grouping. A cloche offers a more clean, pristine look, whereas older birdcages usually give a bit of wear and age and yes the vibe of garden grunge.

Spring and Seasonal Paper Greeting Tags







Once in a while I come across something that really inspires and intrigues me. For my birthday earlier last month my sister gave me a precious gift greeting tag instead of a card. I was totally captivated by it's vintage images and similarities to the vintage inspired art collages that were so popular during the last decade.

Blessings on Resurrection Sunday




Romans 4:17 tells us that (the) "God who gives life to the dead, calls things that are not as though they were."
Jesus not only was resurrected from the dead, but He promises that "dead" things in our own lives will also be brought back to life. Health, relationships, marriages, finances. Placing our faith in God can heal us completely. Shalom.

Wishing you all a Happy and Blessed Easter.

Spring Has Sprung




Hey friends, this last week of March I'm still sharing Easter décor, but also considering that the decorating theme will shift to "spring" next week. When Easter is this early on the calendar I like to keep out some bunnies and lambs around to continue to celebrate the transition from winter to warmer weather.

Garden Room Vignettes and Forsythia



Hope you had a great St. Patrick's Day, friends. Starting this week we're now on the slide down to Easter. I've been posting Easter décor for the last few weeks since Easter is in March this year and I'm a little behind on sharing what normally would be until well into April. St. Paddy's Day was cut short this year, unfortunately because I really enjoy it.
