Spring Decorating!
I just find great joy in decorating for every season!
Maybe its a way to clean the house seasonally or its a form of
self expression!
Anyway...I love it!
Over the years I have collected a wide variety of "things" that I love and provide me Joy!
Recently my Dad & Mom sent me my Grandmother Lillian's box of Stitchery!
I was simply thrilled!
She crocheted the edge on the white square tablecloth below.
I love decorating in layers. I placed her table runner over it.
A few blogs back I described my winter garden.
The tulips are coming along very well!
I added the rabbits and sprinkled herbs over the soil to resemble grass.
The rabbits seem to be very happy!
Its fun to bring out some form of humor when decorating!
I own many books and love them all! I will never adjust to the iPad world.
I need to get my hands on the pages.
Books create wonderful additions to decorating ...especially themes!
I always find guests going through them.
The white hand carved rabbits created by artist Becky Wright have once again found their places.
I love her primitive approach when creating.
I have owned them for years and always look forward to seeing their faces!
The plates were designed by William Morris.
My favorite designer EVER!
He is known as the creator of the "Arts & Crafts Movement".
Below is a LINK ...if you LOVE GREAT DESIGN...he is a joy to read!
Remember to coordinate objects!
The colors in my teapot just coordinate so well with my
Grandmothers Stitchery.
My Grandmother's porcelain rabbit adds a little humor sitting in a wicker dolls chair!
I found this fantastic hand carved rabbit on my travels last summer.
I call him "Harvey".
He is over 24" long and has jointed legs and arms.
I now have decorated him for every season.
He seems to be very content in his Windsor miniature chair reading his fly fishing books.
Do rabbits fly fish?
Allow your imagination to go wild when your decorating!
After all ..."Its your World"!
I hope you will enjoy your spring cleaning and find humor throughout your home!
We all need a laugh everyday!
Your Artist Friend in the Wilds!
