Easter Around the Home
As you know, I love to reflect the seasons, both natural and liturgical, by adding small touches to my home. We always have an Easter tree of sorts, this year is no different. Our ‘tree’ is comprised of twigs of Pussy Willow found at the grocery store and cuttings from my beautiful Corkscrew Hazel shrub.
I love it’s twirling, twisting branches. I placed a few tulips around the base for an added spring touch. These will grow and open as the days go by.
The branches are then adorned with our little collection of easter eggs. It’s such an easy thing to put together and looks fabulous.
Across the dining room mirror, I hung up this cute little bunny garland I made last year.
In the T.V lounge, the mantle has received a bit of attention too. Daffodils from the garden grace the mantle and the coffee table. Easter bunny chocolate eggs, gifts for friends who will be coming on Sunday to share a lovely Easter lunch with us, sit waiting patiently for their arrival.
My crochet Easter bunting has been hung up too. I made this about 3 years ago and I love taking it out each year. All that’s left to add are a few candles.
The last spot to receive a sprinkle of Easter charm is the hallway. I have a bunch of cheery yellow tulips, two more bunny eggs and a spring flower garland a friend made for me a few years ago.
Do you add any Easter/spring touches to your home? If so, I would love to hear about it.
Hope you are all having a great start to your week.

Like you I have filled my home with yellow tulips, daffodils and some forced branches which have some eggs and glass bunnies hung from them. I always set out my Easter garden figures, adding the Risen Jesus on Easter Sunday and we have a special Easter China service which we only use at this time of the year. Have a blessed Easter!

Lovely decorations. We had a house full over the weekend so this weekend I'm ready to do nothing and enjoy time resting.
