Hope you all had a nice Easter wknd :)
I'm ashamed to say that not only am I late showing any Easter decorations - there was nary a bunny to be found in my house this year.............
They're were birds ( that had just laid eggs )
and nests
and birdhouses
and a fresh bouquet from the dollar store that I bought for THIS
and there was some left over sprigs to put on each plate
Sometimes I use my Willow Tree ornaments for my kids place settings
Ashley, you sit here sweetheart
Lindsay honey - you're over here
and Gordie, you sit here, handsome
And we didn't have lamb, or ham, or turkey
We had roast beef and yorkshire pudding...................
& a chocolate cake that I whipped up from scratch Duncan Hines
and of course some candy coated chocolate eggs ( my absolute favorite )
In fact I cheated my whole way through Easter this year.............short cuts everywhere I could find 'em
And guess what?
It worked.......................even without a single bunny!
Hope you all spent yours surrounded by bunnies love

Aw how sweet. I had bunnies all crammed together in my pathetic attempt to put something Easterly out. Not very pretty, I'm afraid. My birds in their nest in a cage, look much better. Your birds and table look fabulous!
ReplyDeleteMy kind of Easter decor! Perfect. Love the table setting. Glad you had a Happy Easter :-)
ReplyDeleteAnd nary a bunny was needed... Very nice!
ReplyDeleteLooks like you had a lovely table even without a bunny! My table didn't have a bunny on it either :)
ReplyDeleteSo glad you had a Happy Eaaster. What lovely pictures. Love the table setting and the decor.

Suzan,
ReplyDeleteSometimes you have to go outside the norm and you had a beautiful table setting. Very nice.

I spent Easter surrounded by cats that didn't bring me any eggs! But it was a lovely Easter anyway because the sun shone for three days! I bet it was a nice Easter for you if your children were there.
ReplyDeleteEaster was just another day around here, hubby worked 13 hours at the mine and I worked in the garage. No bunny's in sight. And the only birds were the ducks and geese I feed in my yard every morning. The only thing colourful around here is my leg from falling the other day, it is a pretty shade of blues, purple and black from my shin to my toes lol Your table looks stunning and I loved all of your pics. Your house always looks so pretty. hugs Tobey
ReplyDeleteNo bunnies here either other than a few Lindt ones. We did have lamb however. But I cheated and bought a lemon meringue pie - something I rarely do. And you know what? Nobody cared.
ReplyDeleteWe've been fighting the flu here and so a laid back Easter was in order.
Don't think I'll go crazy anymore Heather - no one seems to mind
DeleteSorry you're fighting the flu - not fun, I know..................
Big hugs ( virtual ones because I don't want to catch what you have :)

Looks like you had a great weekend!!!

It felt like Easter here, too. Even without the boys at home. Probably due to the fact that my face was stuffed with cake and whipped cream. :)
ReplyDeleteVery unique table, Suze- totally you!
xxx, Tina
There were no bunnies around our table either....looks like fun though at your place!!
ReplyDeleteWell, Easter may be a bit late but it sure looks good. Hope you are having a great week- Mine is so busy I can't stand it- xo Diana
ReplyDeleteIt looks festive from the photos despite no bunnies.
ReplyDeletethanks - it wasn't very festive really lol - but it was fun
DeleteXOX
It all looks lovely...even without a bunny! Mmmmmmm yorkshire pudding! I have yorkshire pudding pans that my friend from England sent me and we love them with gravy!
ReplyDeleteNo bunnies here - just chicks. Your table looks simply elegant. My Willow Tree angels have not seen the light of day in over a year. YIKES! They are pushing the rule around here. If not used within a year, out the door you go.
ReplyDeleteI did the traditional ham & scalloped potatoes...I think my family would have fired me if I didn't. lol Love your decor! Oh and those candy eggs? I had some for decoration and I love them...first time I've bought them, but won't be the last.
ReplyDeleteDebbie :)

ReplyDeleteGreat way to celebrate the occasion. Really sets up the mood. :)
