Easter in the Holiday Cupboard

You all will be thrilled to know that this year I have recovered the lost stash of Easter Goodies. Last year I was bemoaning the fact that I had a bunch of my vintage Easter things that were lost somewhere in the Twilight Zone. You know, that place that various and sundry items go to that is unbeknownst to your conscious mind. Yep, that happens to me every once in awhile, and when it does it triggers all kinds of thoughts about the state of mental health concerning moi.


(not too old cauliflower teapot) 


I prefer to regard it as just a busy person
 with a lot of "stuff" and not enough organizational skills.

Anyhoo, a couple of my old chalkware bunnies have found their way out of that parallel universe and back into the Holiday Cupboard.



I love old seed catalogs and Garden books
and just received a new purchase that I'll show you soon.











See the green garden box here on the bottom shelf?
Next week I'm going to share an idea I have for making them...


It won't be rocket science, but it will be be fun...
and on the cheap.


I'm joining these parties this week:


Wow Us Wednesday at Savvy Southern Style
Rooted in Thyme
French Country Cottage
The Charm of Home
From My Front Porch to Yours
Coastal Charm
