Enjoying the Season: Easter and Spring

I love seasonal decorating but in Oklahoma, we sometimes need a reminder about what season it is!  Today it's warm, but it's not too late for a cold spell.  With that in mind, I will share what is going on inside our house -- bunnies and chicks everywhere!  (Note:  The printed cards in these photographs are from The Graphics Fairy, a wonderful source of vintage illustrations, many in color, that can be printed out for your projects.)

What a lovely post. I love all your Easter touches. We haven't begun to clean up our yard as yet and plant annuals. Yes, here in Oklahoma, we can always expect a cold snap in April.

I never got my Easter decorations out this year and you post makes me regret it. I did purchase a precious pair of ceramic bunnies back in January and I have enjoyed them, but I miss my other spring treasures. I'll do better next year and enjoy your pictures this year!
