Here Comes Peter Cottontail...

I have been debating on selling my Easter treasures in the shop or keeping them. I dragged them out yesterday, and put together a little vignette to help me decide.

I know Easter is not for weeks, but hey, we decorate for Christmas 6 weeks before Christmas at Thanksgiving time. Easter is a special holiday too.

I don't have much, but I have collected a few fun items over the years. I do love this rabbit.

And this rabbit isn't too bad either. The picture is my kids when they were little with their Easter baskets. I don't use doilies anymore, but the display needed some white to tie in with the door, so out they came. They were my Mom's, so I keep them too. I'm sure someone in my family made these long ago. The middle of them is tatted, so much work.

See the pussy willows? When you live in Minnesota, you have to save them from last spring. I won't be able to cut any up here till May.

I still have a few weeks before the sale to decide if I should keep them. I could keep them and pass them on to my Grandchildren some day. I know they like them now, so I might have to ask them before I decide.

Do you decorate for Easter?  Lots or little?

Talk to me ladies...I'm buried in snow on the Canadian border.
