Lil sis found these three Easter tea pots in her basement and gave them to me for my birthday. They were mom's and I believe that Sissie bought them for her. So I put them out with moms angels.
Mom's movable bunnies. These have been drug around the house by every grandchild mom had and now the littles come over and drag them around.
They have been very durable over the years.
My cousin bought this cute little picture for me when she was here and also a Easter candle. Dad's funeral vases reflect the holiday at this house.
More of Mom's Easter things, fun to put out.
I am going to have the Littles over for a Tea Party, so I decorated the Dining room with mom's fun Easter things. I am going to plant Easter grass with wheat today and it should be up in a week.
So I do feel like it is spring here, just wish it was sun shiny and warm today.
Sewed yesterday and did get my quota done, so I was proud of myself. Also did three loads of laundry, which now need to be
Hubs just got back from a walk and said it was cool outside, drat! So that means I will be inside doing things I would rather avoid.
Let's see I have
I already turned down a client this morning. But things are slow here and will be for the foreseeable future as they should be.
We have 4 people with the virus in the valley and Idaho has had 3 deaths. So it is coming here and we have to wait out the storm.
Well no use sitting here boring you and myself to death. I need to get to work. Work is normalcy to me. What makes you feel normal? (Slug you cannot comment)
Have a great and productive day staying positive while you are in the negative.

Sewing first and foremost. Reading is a tie for first. Being outdoors. I must admit I cannot do much out there, but I enjoy the greenness and flowers in other people's yards.
ReplyDeleteMy friend said her mother loved Christmas so that she transformed the whole house into what looked like a Christmas cottage. She took everything from shelves and tables and put out Christmas things instead. So, when her mother died, the loss so crushed my friend that she never put one thing out at Christmas. I told her I would honor my mother and remember her by putting out some Christmas. No, they got rid of ALL her mother's Christmas treasures. That hurt me. I am glad when I have things that remind me of my mother around the house.
I am glad you are so happy displaying things that belonged to your mother.
Thanks it did make me happy, I miss her.
DeleteAll the Easter items are very precious. I think I might have bunny and chick salt and pepper shakers, a table runner, some stuffed bunnies, but not a lot of Easter decorations. Maybe after this year I'll really want to celebrate spring and go all out.
ReplyDeleteI think it helps, but maybe I am turning into my mother?

ReplyDeleteJust exactly where you belong.
DeleteAll your Easter things are just beautiful Kim - how special to have them to remind you of your Mum. I have been doing an Easter table in my lounge & I am enjoying putting it together. I laughed at Sluggies comment above !!
ReplyDeleteShe is in timeout right now. She conspires with Sissie....
DeleteCute Easter decorations. We had planned for my parents to come down & celebrate Easter with us, and then help out with the kids over spring break. They will now stay at home, and the kids are so sad (as are my parents). I need to think of fun Easter activities for them!
ReplyDeleteWe were to go and get Hub's folks but that might be on hold. Dye Easter eggs, cook funny foods, look up Easter traditions in other countries.
