Easter decorating with vintage

Hi Everyone
 Happy Friday
Decorating with vintage and heirloom treasures for 
~Easter~
 This beautiful  vintage striped shabby chic pink apron with cabbage roses
 is the perfect background
 for a tiny wire bunny
and a pretty pink cabbage rose from our garden
 This vintage apron has been in our family for 3 generations
 it belonged to my Grandmother 
my Mother and now it is part of our Home 
 Easter
 would not be complete without it
I can remember my Grandmother wearing it when she was in the kitchen
 cooking Easter dinner for the entire family with
Aunts ,Uncles, Cousins all running around
so much  fun
This little wire bunny was a gift filled with chocolate
   years ago from our children when they were 3 and 6
{I think they may have had a little help from Dad}
It is a real treasure to me

These little clapping hands are vintage paper clips covered with felt
A gift from my Grandmother for Easter when I was young
she always gave us something she made with her own hands
Vintage heirloom treasures help to keep
Easter 
a family affair
Don't let family heirlooms  just sit in a china cabinet or closet
Get them out and enjoy them 
share the stories that go with them too
That is part of the fun
romantic saying for today
"In a sea of people my eyes always search for you"
