Easter Kitchen Table Decor

When I saw Ann from Sutton Place's post  on a nesting bunny, I knew what I wanted to make.  I already had bought this cute bunny from HomeGoods, which I bought when  I saw how well it blended with my quilted table topper.  I used my grandmother's basket, which is probably at least 80 years old and filled it first with bubble wrap (to keep the table clean!!) and then moss from the Dollar Tree. I sprouted some pink flowers (50% off) from Hobby Lobby to add some color. I also changed the bow out  on the bunny with some bright pink tulle.


Last year, on a visit to Home Goods,  I found the lime green polka dot salad plates!! I love buying salad plates to go with my Mikasa English Countryside dinnerware. 



 I made this Big Star quilt for my Easter kitchen table. I loved the bunny pattern and the bright pink polka dots to coordinate. 



Here's the quilt in detail.


How about a cup of tea, in the tea cup painted by my late, Great-Aunt Kitty?


 I tied some more of the tulle around the silverware and napkin.

  10. Hi Kitty, I guess you were named after your great aunt? You are lucky to have her pretty hand painted cup. We have a few from my hubby's grandmother and they are so dainty. Your bunny nest is sweet--I am going to try that! Linda

  18. I almost tripped myself, running over here to take a look at your pretty Easter decor, Kitty! LOVE it ALL, esp. that tablerunner!! I must get busy & make an Easter one for my table.
    Your bunny is delightful & you reminded me that my DD has MY grandmother's handpainted wicker basket that is close to 100 years old. My grandmother gave it to MY Mom & told her to give it to my DD when she got older. NOT ME...my DD!! It was featured on the cover of the Ladies Home Journal once & I sure wish I could find that issue. Probably from waaaay back in the 50's.

    Oh, this was a fun trip down memory lane...thank you so much for sharing it all.

    Now to go check out those muffins you posted. Yum!
    fondly,
