AN EASTER TREE...

A quick post today, as a busy day ahead!

***

I just wanted to share my Easter tree with you...





 Impatient to bring a little Easter cheer in to the house, in preparation for the forthcoming weekend.....I brought a few 'twisted willow' stems in from the garden, to stand in a basket on my kitchen island unit.  I am not one for going overboard with decorating at Easter time, but an Easter Tree, in some shape or form, is a tradition that I grew up with.....and one that I carried on with my own children whilst they were growing up.  Back then, we would blow and then decorate real eggs together for the tree......an activity 
I miss these days!






Faux blossom branches, papier mache eggs, embroidered chickens and small silk birds... which I have collected over the years.....have been brought out for their annual Spring airing.






Do you have any traditions and like to decorate your home at Easter?

I would love to hear from you!

Have a lovely Wednesday....

    Absolutely beautiful your Easter tree. Stunning ! Yes, we have similar and different traditions but for the orthodox church Easter is on 5 may this year. So it is early for us , I think
    I can show some things on my blog.
    Best wishes ! Olympia

    Love the Easter tree I do decorate throughout the house with eggs and little chicken. I also have an Easter wreath on the front door but it is very understated unlike christmas
