Summertime, and the Livins Easy!

Summertime, and the Livins Easy!Those iconic words drift through my mind as I ponder the lazy, days of summer.

Inspired Tables of Red, White, and Blue

It's the first Sunday in June, and I'm sharing some

past summer tables with links for those interested in 

a little red, white, and blue table inspiration.

Buzzing About

I've been buzzing about to get our garden

 back to normal after our severe winter,

so today I'm thrilled to join a group of talented ladies

to celebrate the bee, an essential garden helper.

Bunny, Bunny, Bunny

I set a new table this week.

A pretend breakfast table for 

my darling great nieces.

Last year after Easter, when everything was on lock down,

I had to stop in a neighborhood store to pick up some essentials.

My eyes immediately saw these darling bunny eggs.

If you know me, you know I'm all about checks.

I knew these would set a fun table for the little girls,

and I already had gingham plates and napkins.

This spring I picked up a pair of these 

black and white cereal bowls at Home Goods.  

What can I say?  They are black and white!

I started with Hester and Cook's paper gingham runner

topped with their giant Easter egg placemats.

Next I layered MacKenzie-Childs Taylor Brighton Pavilion 

plates, and topped each with gingham plates from Michaels.

I've had the gingham napkins for years, and the darling

glittered bunny napkin rings were a gift from may dear friend

Emily @ The French Hutch.

I planted a garden of mini daffodil bulbs in our antique

French faience cachepot with Funny Bunny peeking in.

 The Country Garden Rabbits in spring plaid are

by American artist Mary Lisa Chesnutt for Dept. 66.

They hopped into my rabbit hutch in the 1990s.

The bunny eggs are by Two's Company.

I filled them with yogurt pretzels with sprinkles.

The cereal bowls are by Coco + Lola.

The MacKenzie-Childs Honey Bunny, delivered  

Henrietta's Honey, to sweeten the leaping bunny biscuits.

Spring green bamboo flatware is by Caspari.

La Rochere Napoleon Bee stems 

are filled with orange juice.

Love these little garden details for the table.

The girls couldn't join me here, 

so the bunny eggs and other Easter treats

will be delivered to them before they are off

to spend the weekend with their Granny.

Hoppy Easter 

from Auntie Sarah!
