A TOUCH OF SPRING

I'm so not through with Winter yet; but for those who are anxiously awaiting Spring here is a touch of the Spring/Easter season at our house!

 The bunny is a vintage Easter candy container, and the small tin basket is also vintage.  The old postcard signifies the meaning of Easter.

 To view the full table-top quilt, check out my quilting blog here.

I'm fortunate to live in Colorado, so I know we will have another month (or two) of occasional winter.  Bring it on, I say; but for the rest of my family here is a touch of Spring!

I'll be joining Marty at A Stroll Thru Life for her Spring Cloche party on Tuesday, March 13.

EASTER BLESSINGS

I've accumulated a few vintage Easter items over the years. These three glass chicken covered containers are from my childhood, and originally held candy.
A few Easter postcards!

A little metal Easter basket and celluloid sheep.

My favorite have to be these Victorian milk glass eggs. Since they were cold painted, they are hard to find with any decoration intact.

Both the white bunny and the egg-shaped container originally held candy.

However, I hope we never lose sight of the real meaning of Easter.

May you be blessed this glorious Easter week.

I'll be joining Debra at Common Ground for Vintage Inspiration Friday this week. Everyone will be showing off their vintage Easter things, so be sure to check it out.

EASTER IMAGES

I thought you might enjoy seeing some images of Easter from our collection of antique postcards. These date from the early 1900s.

And, my favorite. Yes, it is a time of celebration and prayer!!

Thanks for stopping by to help us celebrate Easter week.
