Rustic Easter Charm

Good Day!

It's so nice and sunny here today, hard to
believe we had a snowstorm on Saturday 
and it looks like a winter wonderland outside again.

Spring in Newfoundland is like that!

I was busy pulling out a few decorative 
accessories that I haven't used in a while 
over the weekend and I came across 
this cute church bird house.
I love it's rustic charm. 
I added the birdies and more, yes, more 
paper punched Easter eggs 
(I must be obsessed).




I have to say that I love the non traditional 
colors on these Easter Eggs.








So delicate, it almost looks breakable.


Who would of thought that a snowstorm 
outside can give such great lighting for 
taking photos...and these were taken in my basement...no touch up on these either...
and that makes it much easier for me!

Imagine, Improvise & Invent

  3. Snow...wow! I wish!! I live in South Texas, so it's 82 degrees today. I adore your birdhouse!!! So lovely, and of course your eggs. I love the houndstooth one. Love houndstooth anything! I'm going to have to try this technique. So very pretty!

  22. I love your eggs and the birdhouse, but I have recently been fascinated with birds!! Are yours glued to the candlesticks or just sitting on them?? I love that idea!! I just saw a pair at Goodwill similar to yours and how much cuter on the stands they would be!!!

  29. Sarah your vignettes are stunning. Each photo is so fabulous and elegant. I have always wanted to go to Newfoundland. That is one of my dreams I plan to actually do. I can't wait. I met my hubby at the opposite end of Canada, in Victoria, BC. This is such a wonderful post! I would love it if you would share this at our WIW linky party. Hope to see you there.

  30. Hi Sarah,

    Your vignettes look gorgeous! I think I will be trying your pieced paper eggs today. I tried it with a regular foam sphere last week but I think the graduated shape of an egg suits the technique much more.

    Have a wonderful Newfoundland Easter from Ontario!
