It was very spring like here in Georgia this weekend! The weather really was lovely and I spent most of my time outside working in my vegetable garden. So I thought I’d do a little spring themed decorating. I found this picture when I organized my garage and it and the weather inspired me!

I made these bunny on a stick topiary cups (thank you Angie for posting about the moss bunnies – otherwise I wouldn’t have know as I hardly ever go to Pier One). $2 people, for cute bunnies on a stick (sounds like something to eat doesn’t it)! I just took one of my blue transferware tea cups and filled it with floral foam, topped it with some moss and stuck the bunny in it!
I shopped my garden – the statue and blue finial are from the garden.
This bunny planter I got a few years ago at Target during the after summer clearance and I’ve never used it until now!
If you look in the mirror you can see that one of my Bradford Pears is in bloom!
A bird in an apothecary jar with some moss.
It was so much fun putting together something so springy and all I spent was $4!
My birthday is Wednesday and Lyn will be guest posting that day with her last installment of “Investing In What Matters – Invest In Yourself “. Hopefully my husband has a fabulous week planned for me (he’s taking Tues – Thursday off) so I won’t be around until I post on Friday. Have a great week!

I love all of the blues you are showing! I have been adding more blues to my home too. I think we know we were seperated at birth by now :-).
I can’t believe your Bradford Pears are blooming already. It is amazing what 4 hours south can do!
Happy Birthday on Wednesday!

Since I ususally look at your blog at least once a day, I guess I better about commenting, so here goes! I love the bunnies. I just saw in the Martha S. Living mag, April issue, I think, where they did wheatgrass baskets for eggs. That’d be cute too, with those little teacups. I also like the little pineapple garden statue, and, did you see the one I got (on my blog)? I called it an acorn! Then I saw one in the pennies catalog. I like ours better! Also, happy birthday! Don’t forget to wear your tiara!!!
Susan says
Love the spring vignettes! I may borrow a couple of your ideas! It was beautiful this weekend! Happy Birthday (a little early)

Susan says
Happy Birthday and since I can’t get out to my veggie garden, can we see yours?
Betsy says
I’m scared to allow myself to get spring fever up here in Ohio! We usually have one more big snow in March after a few warm days. Your spring things are lovely! I’ll live vicariously while I browse your blog! Sigh. 🙂
Amber says
I only found you a short while ago and have enjoyed every post since. You have a lovely sense of style.
Okay I have to say it after this post…Hoppy Birthday. I am so embarrassed.

HAppy Birthday to you!! Hope you have a fabulous week with your husband!
I love bunnies!! I will have to go to Pier 1 to find those adorable moss covered bunnies. Great pictures and I am inspired to start with some Spring decorating.
We did have some snow here this weekend though. My crocus will have to wait awhile to open up.
🙂
Glenda/MidSouth says
Happy Birthday!! Love all your bunnies and touches of Spring. The Bradford Pears started blooming right before the snow a week a ago – but seemed to have survived the heavy white stiff.

I love it, it’s so pretty and says happy Spring. Happy birthday to you enjoy yourself.
Just found out there is a new Goodwill opening up in Austell.
The show “Clean House” was filming a house in Smyrna over the week-end until Tuesday. They had a yard in Austell on Saturday, did you get to go? I didn’t.

Rhoda @ Southern Hospitality says
Oh, I just love your springy things. I’ve got some of those bunnies too, similar ones, I’ll have to see where they are. I think hidden in an arrangement somewhere. I love it all! I’m going to do a spring-themed party soon, so maybe you can link this one up.
Mrs. Rabe says
Those are the most darling bunnies!
The peek at your pear tree was a spring treat! It will be a few weeks yet before we see any blossoms!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MANUELA!!!!
i hope you have a wonderful birthday with your hubby and your daughter….as for gardening…I hope your wearing gloves, I haven’t been on the blogs lately because while re-potting a basil plant I got some dirt under a cuticle and my finger is now a shade of purple and twice it’s size….If it’s not better by tomorrow I have to go to a hand surgeon….so be careful when playing in the dirt!! Sue.
