Good morning!
Isn't she the prettiest bunny in the garden ?
I love drawing up new chalkboards for the season and this one just screams Spring! I would so love to stitch this one!
Ronnie is loving the new chalkboard and that black lump on the next chair is Calvin hiding out :)
This is a vintage frame that I had a board cut to fit and painted with chalkboard paint it hangs on the wall going into the kitchen from the family room ,,
The tulip wreath that we showed the tutorial for is right across from the chalkboard on the basement door ..
Spring has definitely arrived inside but there is snow falling outside !

It is cold and the wind is howling outside but inside is looking all springy!
I L-O-V-E my tiered tray and decorate it for every season ..I love finding little thrifted pieces to fit into the tray .. For spring ..it is filled with bunnies ..eggs.. baby ducks.. lambs ear .. tulips .. chalk painted mason jars filled with tulips .. buffalo check ribbons .. rae dunn little bowls and a creamer
It sits on my kitchen table and looks so pretty with the hutch behind it ..
A little chalkboard sits front and center .. with bunnies peeking out of everywhere ..
My tray came from Sam's club a few years ago ..
These little bowls with the cute little duck are my favorite ..
Thanks so much for stopping by!

I finished stitching this Bent Creek Easter Row this morning and had to get it put up on the wall since my Christmas Row was still up :)
I switched up all the floss colors .. I used all Classic Colorworks .. Eggshell, Pumpkin Harvest, Ladybug, Rosy Glow, Straw hat , Bean sprout, Dublin Bay Snowball, Queen Bee and Black coffee ..I stitched it on 28 count evenweave light grey ..tea/ coffee dyed
***Please remember if you copy my finishing ideas that you be considerate and give a link to my blog or facebook page..****
I have this vintage window that all the other rows have been displayed on .. So, I mounted the stitching on sticky board and then mounted black buffalo checks on another piece of sticky board .. I glued them together and added magnets on the back since I have metal pieces glued onto the window ..
It hangs over the door into the family room from the kitchen .. I found the Welcome banner at Walmart .. It was a vertical banner so I took it apart and spray painted 2 of the letters black ..
It looks so cute up there .. I just love it!

I finished up this wreath for Chelsea.. this is Bless Our Home from Country Cottage Needleworks .. this was one of our stitchalongs #pcblessourhome
It is sunny inside but this is what it looks like outside .. supposed to snow all day :)

this was my Bless our Home ..also finished into a wreath .. but before I hang it up again this year it is going to get some more foofing! :)
We both changed up the dog in the chart .. Chelsea added 2 more dogs and mine I just changed the colors to look like Ronnie
I mounted the stitching on sticky board and also mounted big red checks on sticky board and glued them together .. I found the truck at Big Lots last year .. I wired the truck to the grapevine wreath and glued the stitching to the little sign that hangs under the truck ..
Then the fun began .. greenery ..lots of gingham ribbons .. and daisies in yellow and white were added all over ! Lots of glue was used ! It is so pretty in person and so summery!
