Easter Greens
While pondering how to decorate our
Easter table, I found myself admiring the
vibrant green young leaves of the
graceful old Weeping Willow out our
back door. I had a small epiphany.
I wonder….
if the supple branches can
handle it?
Of course they can…It’s a Weeping Willow!
I clipped a branch and
formed it into a
sweet & organic Easter basket
handle. Okay, it’s not really a
basket per say but a
vintage jello tin. I love the mellowed
metal surface. I tucked in
natural ‘Easter grass’ for contrast,
pretty, speckled, dark chocolate
eggs & flowers…some just
plucked from our
garden and others
sugary sweet.
My ribbon box yielded
plenty of embellishing
options. So, I gussied up
each tin. I love how the gleam of the
baskets look against the
natural linen tablecloth &
white runners.
So our Easter table is now taking shape,
thanks to this latest
vintage tin & willow
Easter
creation.
Our jello tins never looked
so good.
Wishing you a wonderful weekend,
Monica
