Happy Easter!!!

When you walk into Paula's home you immediately know your entering a special place....much like the feeling you get when your about to enter a secret garden full of magical and wonderous things. Easter time is no exception.
These are just a few of her collection of bunnies. These were made by Evi of Evi's Country Snippets which Laura talked about in a recent post after going to one of her shows. Aren't they just so sweet sitting next to each other in their Easter clothes...

....and this little bunny who's just woken up from a long sleep and still in his bed shirt.
The other corner of the Strawberry room as Paula has appropriately named it. When her Nieces would come over for a visit they always called it the Princess room. You can see why......

Easter vignette with an antique postcard of lily of the valley and eggs tucked into small glasses with angelvine.



This bunny was made by Nicol Sayre. She sits on an old weathered Irish pine sideboard in her living room.


.....This little guy sits in a wicker chair waiting for you at the top of the stair landing. He may have been made by Lori Baker but I'm not sure.



Wooden eggs lovely nestled in angelvine in a wire basket



Fabric bird on a nest atop a wooden cup also made by Evi. It's probably all of 4 inches tall with such beautiful details. Looks so perfect against her collection of brown transferware. The name of the collection escapes me now. Charlotte something? We had been out one day shopping when she spotted a small tea cup. She was so delighted to find it and add to her collection. When we got back to her house she places in on a small shelf with the others. It looked perfect there. It had found it's new home.



May you all find your happy home...

Happy Easter everyone.
