Isn't it great that Easter is a little later this year, in mid April? I always hope that means that the weather can be beautiful for little egg hunters and wearing beautiful dresses sans tights. So, I was never much of an Easter decorator but every year I pull out the special basket from my great grandmother. The bunny and eggs are even knitted as well. For several years I had it gracing the office at work around this time but decided to bring it home as my mom found this picture of her and I when I was 10 years old and my first year with the precious basket.
Several decades later, still in tact.
It prompted me to "Easter Up" the house a little and I absolutely loved shopping for these beautiful pastel colors this year and love how the Easter Decor turned out. The nice thing is we get to enjoy it a lot longer since Easter this year does not "Spring" up on us in March.
Just LOVE this moss on grapevine bunny from Hobby Lobby
The Mantle makes me so happy to look at.
The nest is from Hobby Lobby and sign and Bunny Glass candle holders from TJ Maxx
The Butterfly from the Dollar Tree, Big Eggs from Kroger's, topiary from Hobby Lobby and egg Plate and laser cut egg from TJ Maxx.
A Simple tablescape that screams "Spring!"
The Green Vases are from The Dollar Store
Pier One at the top of it's game lately
How Precious is she from Michael's!!

Your home decor is fabulous! I am so happy Easter is later this year, since I am Irish my family is all about St. Patrick's Day so I will definitely be decorating this weekend! I LOVE the carrot napkin rings from Pier One. Have a marvelous week my dear!

Bahahahhaha that last Meme, oh I rolled. I love your table most of all! I'm not a big bunny person but your table is happiness! Here's the winter leaving us this week and next week being warm and pretty and most of all SPRINGY! xoxox
ReplyDeleteEverything is so cute and the basket from you grandma is such a treasure! I need to get on it and decorate and menu plan for our open house. I'm falling behind!
ReplyDeleteI love it all! I have to limit myself to just one or two new pieces each year, and Marshalls and TJs really test me on that!
ReplyDeleteEaster is actually one of my favorite holidays as far as decor goes and you did such a BEAUTIFUL job on your mantle!! How special that you have that basket from your grandmother! Such a treasure!!

I've never been much of an easter decorator either but you've definitely given me inspo, your mantle is darling! The basket from your great grandmother is such an awesome family tradition and your mom is so gorgeous - I see where you got it from! Happy cold Monday lovely lady! XO- Kim
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness can I please come over!? Your decor is beautiful and you always have the best mantels! I love that moss bunny, hobby lobby has the best holiday stuff!
ReplyDeleteYour decorations are SO cute! I love the mantle and tablescape. And NO bueno to 5" of snow today! Have a happy Monday and stay warm!
ReplyDeleteI don't host Easter, but always wondered how I could incorporate some cute decor around the house. I never thought of the fireplace - what a perfect idea!! All of it makes me so happy. The colors just brighten my mood, and who could resist the cute little bunnies. Hope you have a wonderful week, gorgeous!

Your mantle and tablescape look ah-mazing, Andrea! I wish I could get motivated to do mine and I was seriously contemplating it this weekend while I was snoozing on the couch, but I think I got rid of all my Easter things a few years ago. Why, I have no idea?! I guess it was a blonde moment, ha! I always had and Easter basket, too. My mom even started including Wayne after we got married and then something happened when Baby Girl came along and she started getting all the goodies! It is a wonderful tradition that I still do with my girls! Have a wonderful Monday!
ReplyDeleteOmg you look like your grandmother!! Love all your super cute Easter decor!! It's one of my favorite holidays! Have a great week!

Yes, Easter might be later this year but doesn't hinder me of getting ready for some decoration too! I love Easter since my son is at this age where he LOVES a great egg hunt, and Andrea: You decorate so well! You have amazing taste!
ReplyDeleteHappy Monday, babe!

Your mantle is Easter perfection!!!! So pretty!!!!! I love love love the picture with your Easter basket then and now. I literally just talked about that this week with Chris as I ordered Zoe's basket. I put so much emphasis on it because I want her to have it every single year for Easter so I ordered something that is pretty for now...but one she can appreciate as she gets older too. I just want something special to have as a tradition every single year and your pictures prove why!
ReplyDeleteYour decor is always so amazing! I really love that moss bunny.
ReplyDeleteSuch beautiful decor as usual! I love that you still have your basket from when you were little, that's so sweet!
ReplyDeleteI love it all! That mantle is gorgeous. I need to decorate soon, too! I can't even believe it but I have yet to check out Hobby Lobby's selection this year... this might be the longest I've ever gone without going there. Haha. Happy Monday!
ReplyDeleteWe really don't decorate that much for Easter either, but I do love all of the bright colors and the bunny rabbits! I also think that it's so cool that you have a basket that was made by your great grandmother that you still have to this day! That's so special!
ReplyDeleteOh I love your Mantle! Your house looks all ready for Easter. My decorations for Easter are a handmade ceramic basket my Grandmother made filled with candy and a big over size peep bunny! haha That is so amazing that you have a basket made by your Great Grandmother. So very special.
ReplyDeleteThat funny on the end is hilarious! My nieces are so traumatized their first few easter bunny visits :) haha
ReplyDeleteIts all so beautiful. Easter truly is my favorite & seeing decorations like this just reminds me why its so beautiful. I love people now decorate for it like the "BIG" Holidays. Its so worthy of all the beauty.
Okay I just love your mantel! You basket sounds special. I really love Easter. It's a special holiday even if I don't decorate much for it.

Love love all your Easter decorations !!! I love that bunny wreath :) And I agree your mantel is so pretty to look at ! Happy Monday Andrea :)
ReplyDeleteSo special you've held on to your Easter basket and it looks good as new! I love your festive decor for all the different holidays. The mantle looks gorgeous with so many cute details and I adore the shimmery carrot napkin holders....so previous! I have some pretty beaded napkins holders from Pier 1 that I never use.
ReplyDeleteI am LOVING this- Easter is my favorite ever!! I have the same bunny banner that's on your mantle- I love the little tails haha. The bunny from HomeGoods is super cute too-- I need to make a trip there :) I love the Easter baskets and that you still have it :)
ReplyDeleteOh how I love your mantle! You are such a creative one in so many ways. Your super powers are unlimited lady!
ReplyDeleteYour Easter decorations are so sweet!
ReplyDeleteYou are just too cute and festive! I love all your decor and am so inspired! How sweet is that pic of you and your mamma and that lovely basket! What a keepsake!
ReplyDeleteI love your decorations! I especially love the sweet story behind your Easter basket:)
ReplyDeleteWhat a special basket! So wonderful that you've still got it after all these years. You've inspired me to get my Easter decor out this weekend - I need some spring!
ReplyDeleteI love all the little splashes of colour and yay, that basket- I love when there's story behind it!
ReplyDeleteThe sign's correct! You ARE ready for Easter!
ReplyDeleteYour table looks perfect! I have been loving my spring decor but I haven't busted out the bunnies yet. I had a few St. Paddy's day decorations easily accessible....now hopefully I can finish the great spring break purge of 2017 and make my way to the attic for the Easter decor while i'm off this week! Hope you are having a great one!
ReplyDeleteCute decorations! Who can resist cute little bunnies and baby chicks? The picture of your great-grandma and you is precious. The basket and bunny were a lot of work. xoxo
ReplyDeleteReally cute! I don't normally do a lot at Easter. But maybe I should start!
ReplyDelete#turnituptuesday
You did such a fantastic job! Please come decorate my mantel too! Everything is exactly what I would have picked too. Currently I have St. Patty's day up...but am hoping to change it out this weekend, but the likely hood of that happening? Slim to none, haha.
ReplyDeleteEverything is so pretty, but I especially love that bunny wreath! I think you need to come decorate my house!
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness I wish I could squeeze those soft snuggly rabbits! Your Easter decor came out great! I love your table setting! Beautifully Candid
ReplyDeleteJust adorable!
