Tulips Bulbs in Mason Jars {Mason Jar Monday}
It just hit me today that Easter is only five weeks away! Here I was thinking it was way too soon to start decorating for Easter and it turns out that it isn’t!
I really enjoy bringing touches of the Easter season to my home — especially since I traveled to Germany for the first time almost a decade ago. The Germans really know how to create a simple, and beautiful Easter display. They don’t go overboard and crazy, but it seems to be just right and so gorgeous.
So, for today’s monthly edition of Mason Jar Monday, I thought it would be fun to create something simple that reminds me of Germany.
When I think of Easter in Germany, I think of fresh flowers. It seems like they have vibrant and simple arrangements ranging from a single flower in a vase, to a big, beautiful bunch.
I use Mason jars as vases a lot, but this time I wanted to try something different. I decided it would be fun to try planting tulip bulbs in Mason jars — the flowers last longer this way!
I made a few in different sizes and grouped them with some little bunny figurines. (more…)

Easter Silhouette Plates
We have had so much ice, snow and sleet lately that I nearly forgot it’s March! That means that Easter is right around the corner. What?!
When I created my Easter Mantel last year, I made some little bunny silhouette plates but, somehow, never managed to post about them here.
These Easter silhouette plates are so easy it’s just crazy.

Spring Place Setting
I love the colors of spring. It’s all so fresh and pretty, don’t you think?
I found a few spring things for my table and thought I’d take them for a test drive to see if they’re keepers or if they need to go back to the store.
This is just a quick try at mixing it all together.
I like it. Not theme-y but yet, very spring.
I bought the chargers at Pier 1 with a gift card I got for Christmas. I think they’re so cute!
The pink plates are new, too. I found them at Home Goods. They only had two, but I think they’ll be cute mixed and matched with other plates I already own. And, I absolutely love them with my brown Spode Delamere plates.
I bought the green napkins on clearance at Target last year. I think they look good with my new table runner from Home Goods — $12.99 y’all!
I have to point out another bargain. See the egg stand? Five bucks at Wisteria last spring!! I’ve waited all year to use it!
Now I’m in the mood for a delicious Easter dinner!
Thanks for stopping by!
