My Easter Mantel {and other touches!)

Easter is still a month away, but I needed a little ray of sunshine given all the sadness of the past week.

Since creative energy is the BEST mood booster ever, I pulled out my Easter and spring stash. I managed to get my mantel completed, as well as a few other little spring touches.  Later in the week, I'll move on to my front door and entryway.

I normally do a bright and whimsy Easter mantel (think coloured eggs, gerber daisies, and a Happy Easter garland), but I decided to go a different route this year.  It's a little more muted and understated than usual.  But I am liking how it turned out. I really like how the 'vintage' bunnies look with the boxwood wreath and potted grass.

















So what do you think? Would love your thoughts!

  1. Wow! It's gorgeous! I love it all! Decorating for Easter can tend to get too cutesy anc cluttered (at my house anyways!) But you have created a really classy, yet whimsical and charming vignette! It's beautiful!
    Best Wishes and Blessings,

  3. I love it, Kerri! It's just the right amount of Easter and still says Spring. I love your bunnies and how you used all the eggs. I especially love your chalkboard sign announcing the Easter Egg hunt.

  14. Great mantle decor! I love how the robin's egg blue provides the perfect 'pop' of color to a perfectly understanded color scheme.

  20. I got here from Beth on A2Z. Very nice decor!! Would you mind sharing where you got the eggs on your mantel?? Love those!

  21. Hi Susan! I've had those eggs for a few years now; but I think I originally found them at Winners (in Canada). You might want to try Marshall's in the US, as I think both stores are owned by the same company; they always have similar stock. It's worth a try! Thanks for stopping by. Kerri
