Vintage Spring/ Easter on the Mantel

Hi Friends, 

I'm so excited to be showing how I displayed the mantel for Spring/Easter.

 I've been trying to spend at least an hour and a half each evening after work, to pull out another holiday tubs to get my Easter collection put out to show you all.  The month of April is such a busy month for me as a intervention assistant, in a elementary school.

With all of that said, here is how I set up the fireplace mantel for April/Easter this year.

As you know I love collecting vintage cookie cutters,

I looked through my collection and found these three bunnies to display on the mantel.

I've noticed on several social media sites, creators using vintage clip boards in their display and vignettes throughout the home. I have used a clip board a few time in the past with clip art and I just happen to pickup a legal size clip board last month, so I was excited to incorporate I my clip boards into this vignette on the mantel.  

Let me know what you think.

The vintage clip boards and spring print are new this year, on the mantel. I found this sweet daffodil print from Pinterest, 

See the cute little chick egg and a little, I found at a thrift store in North Dakota quite a few years ago, there were two of them a chick or hen egg and a rooster egg. I  thought they were very unique, did have a "made in China" sticker on the bottom.

This little chick print came from Graphic Fairy

Don't you just love the chocolate bunny? There was a Spring craft fair in town last weekend, when I saw this very adorable chocolate bunny, I thought it would be a great addition to my Easter décor, so I purchased two of them for $6.50

The light blue red eyed hen was a thrift find earlier these year, also there are a couple of diy's from last year. A bundle of diy carrots and a diy chalk board bunny also from last year.

The little six egg carton is a new diy this season.

I hope I have given you some inspiration to get out there and thrift shop and maybe even do a couple of simple do-it-yourself project to bring your celebration full circle.

Thank you for stopping by, 

My God Bless You and Your Family, during these uneasy times.

Decorate With Me - A Very Simple Mantel - With a Few Shamrocks

 Hi Friends,

It's time to dig out my March décor tubs to bring Spring touches to a dreary month here in my neck of the woods of Colorado.  There's still about a foot of snow on the ground and it's cold outside, with my spring décor I try to bring some color into my home.

This year on my mantel, I hung a garland that I made last year, a couple of felt shamrocks I made a while back, I also incorporated my collection of brass candle sticks along with a green depression glass sugar bowl and embellished with white pip berries sprig and eucalyptus stem, a green bud vase that I added white pip berries and a eucalyptus sprig, and in the center a cream color vase from FTD Floral.

Also I have a copy of the Constitutions hanging above.

Until the next project.

May God Bless You, Vicki a Colorado Junkett
