Longing for spring....

The weather is teasingly temperamental these days...two days ago I was sure sundresses were right around the corner, and this morning the world was drenched in a dreary fog that sent me running for my cozy wool cardigan. But I think the snow is gone for good...there's only one or two lonely patches of white outside my window which shrink a little more each day.  Soon there will be morning dew on green grass...

An Etsy Easter...Bunnies!

King and Queen of my easter weekend....


I would hate to add up how much I've spent since discovering Etsy, the wonderful online shop for all things handmade or vintage.  You can find anything on there for anyone, and it's also a great place to find your own creative inspiration...so encouraging to see an online community of so many original creative people!  For this easter weekend I thought I'd do a post of some of the wonderful spring bunnies I've either purchased or am currently coveting from some great Etsy shops.  

The prints above are from Poor Dog Farm and I can't even say how thrilled I was with them when they arrived. The colors are so crisp, the lines so delicate, the whimsy so ME!  These little darlings are currently awaiting matching frames and a place on the wall of my soon to be home. 
Bunnies to go!


And for one of my favorite combinations...whimsy with a bit of an edge.  Check out Deadworry's fabulous etsy shop for great bags and clothing.

Red and turquoise...



I love this palette for a wedding or a room design...so fresh and unexpected.  Lovely images via Ffffound!
