Bunny Potpourri

I was in the mood for some potpourri today...what kind you ask...why bunny...of course!

I dusted off and old silver chaffing dish and filled it with moss...

Tucked in some fake~o~rama grass and eggs and flowers that I have gleaned

since before the cows~came~home...

Burlap carrots are a must in a bunny potpourri...


And what mixture of Easter folly would be complete without some old silk cabbage...

I love this old rabbit shortbread mold nestled in for Spring~time happiness...

See him peeking over all of the goodies...he looks cozy in there.

Happy Friday Friends!

Empty Drawers

An empty drawer.

Some inspiration.

Some of The Inspired Room dot net.

Some roosters.

Some grass.

Some burlap.

Some eggs.

Some festoon~ment.

No more empty drawer.


I.

Was.

Inspired.


Yes, inspired.

Truly inspired.

No drawer shall be left un~festooned. 

So this is how I was inspired today...for more fun...head back on over to Melissa's for more blog inspiration.

Houses

"Mid pleasures and palaces though we my roam,

Be it ever so humble there's no place like home"

~John Howard Payne

Stayed home all the live~long~day today...

And this is what I made while sewing till the cows~came~home...

Houses!

A whole neighborhood full.

Dorothy and that little dog had it right...there IS no place like it!

The Time Has Come To Spring Forth

Oh my...the time has truly come to move gently into the wonderful season of Spring.

And Spring forth we shall.

Perhaps slowly at first...but then...full speed ahead...with eyes wide open.

Don't you dare close your eyes...there is so much to see...so much to appreciate...so much to sing like a bird from the tree tops about. And even though we have lost an hour of sleep...we have gained an hour of the glory of this sweet, sweet season.




Nothing says Spring like Peter's cottontail!

Nest = Spring...

A wee birdie's home that has been Spring cleaned...

Plates in the garden...it MUST be Spring~time!

I know that the official start of Spring next Saturday...but I can't wait...and since we are moving forward in time today instead of whining about the sleepy fog I am in...

I am instead delighting in the fact that Spring is that much closer.

There Is A Bunny Trail ~ And There Is A Bunny Hippity Hoppin' Down It

Look down that trail...and I am sure you will agree that ol' Peter Cottontail is indeed hopping down that ol' bunny trail...I love spring and I love the sweet celebration of Easter.

What is not to love?  Dyed eggs...sweet grass...everything chocolaty...lots of baskets...lots of carrots...sun~loving bonnets...white gloves or my favorite...gloves covered with garden dirt...rebirth...renew...rejuvenate and nests....yes...NESTS!  You just gotta love any kind of folly that involves nests! Nests and carrots....especially velveteen and burlap carrots...I'm just sayin'.




Hippity~hoppin' I tell ya.

Happy Sunday.
