Needles-n-Pins Stitcheries: EASTER BUNNY AND LIFE
I got this out of a paper I was reading the other day….yes…..can you
believe it..... some of us still read a paper newspaper! I thought it would be
appropriate for the holiday this weekend.
ALL I
NEED TO KNOW ABOUT LIFE I LEARNED FROM THE EASTER BUNNY
Don’t put all your eggs in one basket
Everyone needs a
friend who is all ears
There is no such thing as too much candy
All work and no play can make you a basket case
A cute little tail attracts a lot of attention
Everyone is entitled to a bad hare day
Let happy thoughts multiply like rabbits
Some body parts should just be floppy
Good things come in small packages
The grass is always greener in someone else’s basket
An Easter bonnet can tame even the wildest hare
To show your true colors you have to come out of your
shell.
Keep your paws off other peoples jelly beans
I thought this was cute. I
especially like the one about all work and no play……I can relate to that and
becoming a basket case. J
So wishing all of you a very
HAPPY
EASTER!!!!!

Jacquie's Up-Cycle Nation: A Vintage Easter
Set a perfect table this Easter using the original up-cycle: vintage goods! Floral plates, vintage silver, and playful decorations sweeten every celebration . Shop these Etsy stores, or shop local antique boutiques, to add whimsy to your spring festivities.
The charm of vintage decorations is undeniable and sparks the imagination of young and old alike! This wee rabbit, dressed in her paper finery, is available at IndustrialBlonde.
Easter is the perfect time to bring the spring dishes out of hibernation. Say farewell to winter with these antique Dresden plates available at aquamarinedream.
Add Easter hues to the table with these aqua flower shaped doilies from katrinshinesupplies. Splashes of colorful crochet look well-placed under clear glass serving bowls. This Etsy artist hand-dyes vintage doilies to restore their handmade magic.
This bronze bunny is not vintage but is destined to be a treasured heirloom! Scott Nelles hand crafted this wee hare perfect for keeping watch at the dessert table. He is so tiny, no one will notice if he nibbles a little. Visit this artist's Etsy shop and be prepared to be amazed!
Vintage paper eggs can be reused year after year to hide sweet treats! Grab this playful set at EastLemon and let the egg hunt begin!
To shop more fabulous Easter vintage goods search vintage rabbit on Etsy.
