Hopping Down the Bunny Trail and Easter Egg Hunt Table

Happy Spring!  I’m hopping down the bunny trail with Easter on its way!

Spring has sprung in our neck of the woods with the pear, cherry and plum trees in bloom!

Our weather has been beautiful and mild this March until this weekend and first day of spring, when it turned cold and blustery, an early April Fools joke.

The weatherman says we’ll be back in the 70s by Wednesday here in North Carolina. . . I’m keeping my fingers crossed since he’s always right :)

I had a little table inspiration from this fun vintage-inspired Egg Hunt sign I found at HomeGoods. With so many dishes and so little time, I wanted to hop to it for a little Easter fun in the Potting Shed!

I cut some blossoms to fill some Ball jars and to hang some Easter eggs from the branches.

    So cute. Love the napkins and egg shaped plates. The mosaic is darling. Just bursting with pretty Easter photos. You never cease to amaze me coming up with combinations of elements that delight.
    I enjoyed your older post with the dogwood too.
    Have a blessed Easter. I am so excited my grands are coming and they’re staying a week.I will be AOL from blogging!

    I love hopping on over to your blog, Mary, and seeing my favorite potting shed all decked out in Easter finery. The plates from PB look so vintage and go perfectly with your napkins and darling napkin rings. Your branches make such a beautiful Spring centerpiece and those bunnies are too cute. I especially love the one on the window ledge with his nose in the air. We had our temperatures dip this past weekend, too, Mary…brrrrr…the heat is back on! Happy Easter week!

    Those bunny plates with the napkins and napkin rings on the cabbage leaf plates are just too cute Mary! It’s all adorable, so sweet, and any bunny would be thrilled to nibble there! Love the sign, very fun! Our temps dropped too, but spring is supposed to return tomorrow! Those blooming branches are so pretty, it’s like driving around in fairy land right now, I wish it lasted longer!

    Absolutely lovely as always. Spring has sprung in spiite of the temperatures. Just makes my heart sing.

    Egg hunt delight! It’s fun to see your table dressed with all the pastels and bunnies. Spring is here as well, and with the same weather joke. We went from highs in the low 90s back to 40s. Yesterday I was bundled up out in the garden. Things are blooming and look like spring though. Since we didn’t have a freeze this winter, the garden is looking pretty good.

    Oh, so cute Mary. Still cold here, may even get snow flurries on Wednesday! :( Oh, well it won’t last. Read your comment on Between Naps on the Porch regarding steamers and that in the past you had a ladies apparel shop. I’m sure it was just wonderful! I know every customer not only loved the clothes but how you arranged / displayed them. Wish you would show us some pictures! What a treat that would be! Have a blessed Easter. Thanks again for all your inspiration Mary.

    Loved hopping along on the Easter Egg Hunt with you among the beautiful items on the table….those bunny ear napkin rings are the cutest!….Freeze warnings for tonight and then warming up the next day….I hope this is the last hurrah for the cold weather…

  25. March 21, 2016 at 11:02 pm

    I could Hop Right Over in that Pretty Bunny Patch Shed!!!! Just decorated SOooo cute. Everything I just love!! You can pull things together so artful, Mary. Happy Spring! Yeah, you are right we had a April Fool joke but I think we are going to March right back up to warm weather again. Sure hope it will stay in the 60’s at least and not get cold again like this.

    I’m loving your plates and that sweet bunny towel. Everything is so sweet, and ready for the weekend. Wish we wouldn’t look ridiculous with bunnies out all year round, lol. Sandi

    Hi Mary, Your yard must be beautiful with cherry, pear and plum all in bloom! And the scent~~I can just imagine! These bunny plates are adorable and the bunnies look quite content on the cabbage plates. I really love your tall bunny with his basket full of blooms. I must get hopping on my Easter table, and now I’m inspired. Linda

  29. March 24, 2016 at 1:08 pm

    Everything is absolutely charming! Wishing you a very Happy Easter!!

    Spring is definitely here in TX, but honestly it is so windy today that I found I couldn’t work in the garden It’s raining oak squiggles!
    Your table is adorable with the cabbage plates and sweet little egg shaped bunny plates. The fruit trees in bloom must be a beautiful sight. Happy Spring!
