And Speaking of Pictures of Daffodils . . .
I love daffodils!!! They are so bright and cheery, yet so fragile. They just say "spring" to me! They also happen to be the first flowers my husband ever bought me. :-)
This is a picture of my mantel decoration for Easter. As you can see, it is very, very simple, but I think it looked festive. I have found that a great way to extend the money you pay for fresh flowers is to spread the bouquet out in a variety of vases and then to group them over an area. It makes a big impact for little money; this was just $6 worth of daffodils from Wegmans.
The eggs are my Pisanki, of which I was so proud that I had to continue showing them off.
I opted for fresh flowers as my main decorations this Easter, since I don't have a lot of reusable Easter or spring decorations. Maybe I'll pick some up on clearance sales in the next few weeks, but in general, nothing can beat fresh flowers.
I am sharing this as part of the The Nester's Mantel Party. Check it out for many beautiful, creative ideas.
