Hi everyone and welcome to a special post this week. I’m excited to be joining with some blogger friends to bring you an Easter blog hop! If you’re coming here from Lisa at Farmhouse on Boone, welcome! I’m so happy you’ve stopped by. And if you’re a regular reader, you know that last week I shared a bit of spring decor in my kitchen. This time around, I’m sharing my Easter decor in the kitchen, dining room and living room. There are 9 others joining me, so I hope you’ll stay tuned until the end and then go visit all the other talented bloggers listed at the bottom of the post!
I know some people don’t like to decorate for Easter at all, but I love this holiday! I don’t know if it’s because I love bunnies, or that I’m crazy for nests and eggs, or if it’s all the beautiful pastel colors, but this holiday just makes me happy! Though I decorate for spring earlier on in the season, but as Easter gets closer, I like to do more of the traditional Easter decor. And yes, that means some bunnies come out!
I love to have something on the kitchen counter that represents the season. In this case, I combined my new Pottery Barn bunny with some hydrangeas in an antique ironstone pitcher and a small bunny egg holder that I purchased last year.
This little guy is so cute!
I have a little Easter spread throughout the kitchen. Some was already here from my spring decor, and then I simply added more bunnies and an Easter tray.
The dining room is similar to what I had for my Easter table, except I took away the table settings and table cloth. I left the runner and the purple tulips because I loved the color so much!
I used two runners, one flax colored one from Williams Sonoma and then a pale lavender one layered on top from Home Goods. The basket is one I already owned from Pottery Barn and I simply added some purple tulips from the super market and filled it in with moss. The little nests are from World Market (similar here and here).
On the buffet is a vintage French zinc bucket filled with hydrangeas and two outdoor bunnies that I bought from TJ Maxx and Home Goods. The eggs are faux from Pottery Barn, but I found similar eggs here, here, and here.
In this area near the kitchen, I added a jasmine plant in a white ceramic planter and two little baskets with eggs.
My entry way was already decorated for spring a couple of weeks ago, but I wanted to add more Easter decor so I used a green vine basket that I filled with faux eggs and then planted some tulips in simple terra cotta pots. It’s definitely more Easter-y than before, but this could still work all spring long which I love!
Green vine basket is from Pottery Barn and the terra cotta pots are Target.
I just love these terra cotta pots used indoors. I’m thinking I’m doing this from now on!
And I do love using tulips – they just say “spring” to me!
I always love adding flowers in any season, but in spring, they seem especially appropriate.
A bird and nest rest on some books.
I filled my antique dough bowl with green moss eggs. The eggs are from Target! Love these!

Sheila, your home is so cozy and inviting! I absolutely love your kitchen! We are renovating right now and had considered a bead board backsplash in the kitchen as well. I’m wondering what material you used and if you have any problems with water or with cleaning it. Thank you so much for a touch of spring on this snowy day!
Sheila says
Hi Ann! Thanks so much for your sweet comment! And in answer to your question, I’ve had absolutely no problems with my bead board at all. It is not behind the sink, and doesn’t get wet so that’s never been an issue. We literally bought it at Home Depot and it is super inexpensive so if you’re a fan of bead board, I would say get it! Also, mine has tile across the bottom 6 inches so it is fairly protected from any and all things that are on the counter or I’m cooking. The most I’ve done is wipe it with a wet sponge once in awhile if something splashes. Hope that helps – and good luck!

Sheila, lovely Easter decorations. I have the same bunny that’s on your kitchen counter. I bought it at a charity event with an African violet in it. I added a pink checked bow around his neck. I had no idea that it came from Pottery Barn.
Sheila says
Really?! Well then you lucked out for sure because they have been sold out for quite awhile! Isn’t he so cute?! And I love that you gave him a bow!
Thanks so much for stopping by and taking the time to comment. I so appreciate it!
Happy Easter!

Sheila! I’m so happy to be doing this Spring tour with you. Finally someone who is crazy for eggs, nests and everything Easter! Love it all.
Sheila says
Haha! I am! I adore Easter, and all things nests and eggs! Which is funny, because I hate eating eggs, but I love displaying them:)
Loved doing the tour with you Amie, and your table was absolutely gorgeous!

Hello Sheila,
I appreciate your love for flowers and beautiful. It is clearly evident from the presentations. I like very much as decorated house each time. Spring is a season of revival, of reinvention, colorful and light.
I embrace you with much love,
