preparation



I bought this Easter tree long ago and out it comes each year. The branches are very accommodating and bend nicely which ever way we so choose .. or should I say 'the children choose', for tree decorating is purely their domain. I have even resisted the temptation to move a decoration or two from overfilled branches, in order to give to those with none!


So we are getting ready for Easter. My parents join us tomorrow and, seeing as I've not seen them in way too long, I have to say tomorrow won't come soon enough.


But we won't be celebrating Good Friday this year. Oh no no no, there is something way more exciting and important in our diaries, excitement levels are running high and the (long) countdown is very nearly over ...

  4. What a pretty tree :)

    I tend to use just branches cut from the garden but something like that would be great - more space to hang things!!

  6. It is a sweet tree. We are very low key at Easter and now I am feeling that we (I) might have done more. Looking forward to hearing what you have been counting down. T x

  10. I love your sweet decorations and pretty tree. It IS hard not to start re designing children's tree decorating, especially when unevenly dsitrbuted isn't it?! Hope you and your family have a wonderful Easter break.

There's nothing like a comment to stop me feeling like I'm talking to myself. If you leave one here I'll pop one back here too, so don't forget to come back and continue the conversation ..
