bits of Easter


Our Easter mantel is taking shape...

My Gram's teacup to remember Easters of the past.

Something handmade to represent love.

  15. What a pretty mantle you have! I too have a tea cup of my grandmothers (well, actually quite a few), but the first one I was given from my mother and it was one that my grandfather gave to my grandmother for a wedding anniversary present. It's sentiment is so special to me. I'll have to be thinking about Easter soon too as it's early this year isn't it ... have a great weekend Nicole! Wendy
