Simple Easter Decor

Easter decor around the cottage is minimal. In the quest to simplify, the knick knacks have gone.

These little chenille bunnies ~ too cute to let go ~ will greet visitors on the front porch.

My pair of large white china rabbits sit on the dining room table and will be joined by a pot of Easter lilies in the next day or so.

My sweet mother bunny and babies sit on the hearth.

Blessings to you all at Easter.

Multiplying Like Rabbits!

My Easter decorations are out, mostly a collection of white and cream rabbits. I like large, realistic china rabbits. They are hard to find, although I admit I haven't looked much this year, these I found in recent years.

The smaller pastel colored eggs are faux but pretty - the large white ones are real (blown) goose eggs found in a bowl at the vintage shop along with an Easter post card, dated 1912, from a daughter to her Mother, and illustrated with a bunch of Spring violets.

My Easter lily is just starting to open ~ I always buy them in bud as they'll last longer in the house ~ then plant into the garden where they will return each year.

This year I added this old tin poster of Peter Rabbit, and a vintage publication (1927) titled The Patchwork Poster Book of Peter Rabbit.

These two are made from resin but are so cute ~ they appear to be constantly grinning at one another.....................cheeky rabbits, we know what you've got on your minds! Aah, Spring fever.

.................and this tiny pair I love because they are made of candlewick and fit perfectly into this tiny Easter bucket with the chick and pussy willow.
I've only seen one real rabbit in the garden so far this Spring ~ and he was huge! Hiding out under my rosemary bush, I'm not sure who hopped faster when we came eye to eye as I bent down to gather up a pile of leaves! We have several feral kitties who visit our garden so perhaps they scare off the rabbits ~ hope so because today I noticed the first Hosta shoots pushing up and I know the rabbits will make a meal of them given half a chance. China ones I like, real ones are pesky.......just like Peter!

'Hey mommy, who's this?" Looks like another baby bunny has joined the group!
