Come on into the parlor and take a look at the decorations ready for Spring/Easter.

On the entrance mirrored chest, the concrete clam shell not only holds shells but eggs.

On the secretary, a vintage postcard bunny dish and a foil bunny add just a little touch for the upcoming season.

Two bunnies in a washed brown-grey color rest on the lower mantle. I purchased the bunnies new this year at Gordon’s of Metairie.

The parlor sets a spirited tone for the Spring season to come.

Happy Birthday to my “favorite godchild, Henri. Paran Ron hopes you are spoiled rotten today (like today would be any different from any other day).

  5. You never cease to create wonderful vignettes! I adore the bunnies you obtained in Metairie (our youngest has a friend from there, they met when she came to live with her Aunt here after Hurricane Katrina for awhile). Love the addition of the eggs to the clam shell. I need to decorate mine (it's been empty since the holidays). And, Happy Birthday to Henri. What a handsome boy!

  6. The large view of your front room is beautiful. A room should be interesting before you place a stick of furniture in it - and your house fits that perfectly. Of course, all your furnishings and accessories make it twice as lovely. Big ole' rabbits? Yes,yes! I need to find some!

  24. As a new follower I must comment on your mantle. I have the exact same mantle (one of 6 in our house!) except ours is natural, unpainted. May I ask how tall your ceilings are? I rarely decorate the "upper" shelf of ours but yours looks wonderful. Our ceilings are 11 feet tall, are yours? (It just never entered my mind to decorate that area, except at Christmas! And I'm envious of those bunnies!!! Vicki in Louisville KY
