Thanksgiving or Christmas?

Hello, Darlings!
Friday is the big night. 
Does that mean you will start on Thanksgiving or Christmas decor on Saturday?
I'll start on some Thanksgiving decorating. 
Here are some images from last year.

We had an "over the river to Grandmother's house we go" theme.

I vote that we move Thanksgiving up to the 1st or 2nd Thursday of November instead of the last Thursday. 
That way we could enjoy our Christmas decor longer than we do our fall decor. 
 We'd need an act of congress but the retailers would go for it.

For years we didn't even have Thanksgiving decor.
We didn't host so I skipped right over it. That didn't work out so well in the long run. I got so sick of the Christmas trees and the "stuff" everywhere.

I've picked up a few more turkeys in the last few years even though I didn't shop early enough.

  
Last year all the Thanksgiving stuff was gone before Halloween.  

I finally found some cornucopias at Michaels.
I sprayed one white.

Using pinecones, leaves, acorns and dried flowers keeps it all within a neutral scheme.

I made another one out of chicken wire and a drop cloth

and another out of an old bed spring and burlap.

This year I'll be repurposing some small, vintage Native American dolls and a wild turkey print from an Audubon book of bird prints. I'll finally pull out the little plate that I found while out thrifting last January. (if I can find it...)

Isn't it cute?
What will you do? 
Do you decorate for Thanksgiving?

Bunny Trail

I think I have shared with you the quirk in my personality that can't do something the same way every year. I want to, but just can't.

I have been putting out a few Easter items. Last year I didn't really put too much out because we had a huge hole in our kitchen ceiling and I knew we wouldn't be hosting Easter lunch.

This year we are excited to be hosting again.   

I was in love with the white bunnies in the Pottery Barn Catalogue. Tuesday Morning had some for a fraction of the price. 

I like to tuck my seasonal items in the midst of my regular decor. Then I don't have to pack stuff away. 

I bought the shelf sitter last Easter thinking it was mine. 

I was certain Bill had donated the wrong bin to the thrift store and had given away all my Easter decor.

Turns out my bin of decorations was safe at home, so now I have two of these cuties.

This bunny with the cart is a new favorite. I found it at Tuesday Morning.

My favorite Easter piece is the calendar plate from 1911.

102 years old!! 

I found the Peter Rabbit figurine on e-bay a few years ago. I think these are predominantly nursery figures but he is too cute. 

The sunroom got a few touches as well.

I'll plant the Grape Hyacinths in the yard when they are finished blooming. Hopefully they will bloom next spring.

The bunny planter is vintage. I found it a few years ago at an antique store. 

I have had an enjoyable few days just puttering around the house.

I thought I might take on a project for spring break, instead I have been organizing my music in I Tunes and working in the yard. 

The front yard got a few Easter touches. I will show you those in my next post.

Sprinkled with bunnies,

Katie
