Finally Easter in the heart of the home...

Wow, 
finally some Easter décor in our sit-down kitchen. 

The kitchen table was covered in toys, cars and our hockey game 
and I felt that it didn't feel like Easter at all.
- It was more like a messy kid's room than a place to enjoy good food.

So.
Today, on Easter Monday - the last day of Easter, 
I had a major clean-up and decorated the whole area.

Tadaaaa...


Yellow and cream feathers and 
a row of vintage paper chickens from my childhood 
casually placed on the shelf.




   
Soft pastels in the window - nesting eggs from IKEA.




On the kitchen table a yellow table cloth and
vintage candle rings from Sweden with lovely Spring colours 
- yellow, white and light green.


 

 Too bright to take photos in the kitchen, 
but you get the idea ☺


My first Easter egg... still intact! 



  
Some antique Easter décor from my late paternal grandfather (1890-1980)
and my late maternal grandmother (1921-2011)


I so enjoy seeing these old ones being used.


Antique Easter witch and chickens.


More eggs and a bunch of chickens.


Love the bright colours of the eggs.


Some of the chicks are really old and tired now...
but I still love them 
- and they are going to stay in the family for many more years to come!


Eggs and witches - so crucial in the Swedish Easter décor!


My maternal grandmother's colourful eggs...
I normally hang them up, 
but this year they are beautiful in a vintage depression glass dish.

I think I'll wait a day or two a couple of weeks, 
until I take everything down...
When do you pack away your décor?

Easter hugs from this side of the planet♥

Min fina gåva... ♥




Min vän Kristina kom över på kaffe o bullfika idag... och med sig hade hon en present till mig!! Det var en antik knäckebrödsform i koppar från Sverige - sååå otroligt fin!! Den sattes omedelbart upp på väggen. Visst är den tjusig?! Har aldrig sett en sån innan så det känns extra speciellt att vi har en!
Tack snälla söta Kristina!!!


Kram♥
