Here Comes Easter

It's Easter time again and the Ozark Easter

hutch is all decked out for the season!

 This sweet little chick with a wheelbarrow

was added last year.

He is quite dapper in his straw 

boater hat and bow tie. 

That polka dotted 

wheelbarrow is all the rage.

 He's actually an Easter salt and 

pepper shaker set from Dept. 56.  

 I think he might be styled after one of those 

slightly creepy Victorian Easter greeting cards.

Or possibly chicks are just dressing more 

dapper nowadays!?!

Over to the left is another new addition.

.

 It's a carrot serving bowl.

 Just the thing for hungry Easter bunnies!

I found it on Pfaltzgraff.com a few years back

visit Pfalzgraff here

and purchased it 

during a clearance sale!

 Moving down to the second self...

 we find the "Hoppy Spring" salt and pepper set. 
The bunny is in disguise wearing a beak and 
the duckling is wearing bunny ears.

I've shown them before

They were designed by Barb Tourtillotte,

the artist behind "Dipped Chicks",

I blogged about her here in 2011.

On the buffet we find a similar sight...

a baby duckling also in disguise 
dressed as a bunny.

This little guy is from Anna Lee,

 I knew I had to have it at first sight.

After all, he fits right in with the 

"Hoppy Spring" table runner.

Plus, it's just not a holiday without

a little Anna Lee.

How about this new cookie jar 

I acquired last year?

I assume, another Victorian greeting 

card inspired piece.

basket on its back 

full of Easter flowers.

A fine collectible
 from Kaldun & Bogle.

Their Chick Silhouette Cookie Jar.

They're known for adding lots 

of intricate details to their creations.

A little too small and slender 

to use as a cookie jar.  

But as a decoration, it's just splendid.

As we journey into the living room,

we find a small vignette of an 

Easter bunny chocolatier inspecting 

chocolate confections.

The round patchwork tablecloth is 

new this season from the Pioneer Woman 

line at Walmart for $14.96.

The big white bunny is new 

from HomeGoods.

I wasn't sure what I was going to do 

with him when I saw him, but 

I knew I just had to have him.

I think he found a perfect job. 

Making chocolate bunnies 

and chicks.

I found these faux chocolate molds,

they're just silver painted resin,

this year at Michael's.

When I saw those, this vignette 

started composing in my mind.

Sam found these beautiful candle 

sticks at Tuesday Morning. 

With the pastel colors and 

the whimsical design they 

instantly reminded her of Easter.

I think they are a brilliant addition!

I hope everyone is having 
a wonderful Spring
and is ready for Easter.
It seems to sneak up 
so fast every year!
Thanks for stopping by
and happy hunting!
