Marty's invited us all to another cloche party this week. Time to see what everybody's "captured under glass" for Spring.
On my sideboard all decorated for Easter, I've caught this little chick! He's all nestled in some green & yellow shred with a couple of Easter eggs.
My apothecary jar contains some pretty eggs all decorated for Easter.
Marty said that we could show any "containers" -- so I've got a little bird's nest in my sugar scuttle (that's probably stretching it).
The centerpiece hurricane lamp on my Easter tablescape holds Peter Cottontail and some jelly beans.
The cloche on my washstand has "captured" a little farm boy with a chicken and rooster.
See his sweet little face -- he's taking a break from hoeing the garden. Today I picked this little farm boy to honor my Dad who was born the third child of eight to my grandparents living on a farm right outside of Chase City, VA.
Happy 85th Birthday to a man who's still that little country boy at heart! Happy Birthday Dad!
Be sure to visit Marty at "A Stroll Thru Life" and join in on the Spring Cloche fun.
Thanks Marty, for inviting us to another fun gathering! This is a busy week with extra church services and lot's going on -- I've not been able to get around to as many of your blogs to comment as much as usual, but I look forward to lot's of "visiting" soon. Happy Easter everyone.
See ya!

Happy Birthday to your Dad!! How lucky you are to still have him around to celebrate with.
ReplyDeleteThe black polka-dot ribbon looks so cute on that one cloche...great choice! I wish I'd had some gingham to use, like you did on that other one.
♥ ♥ ♥ the nest in the sugar skuttle!!!! Brilliant!!
Just wonderful. I love the cloche with the cute little chic and the apothecary jar with the eggs is such a pretty vignette. The hurricane with the tall bunny is stunning. Such a creative display. Love the sugar scuttle too with the eggs. Your little farm boy and his little rooster and chick is precious. Your really do have some fabulous displays and your vignettes are just wonderful. Super inspiration and eye candy. Thanks so much for joining the party. Hugs, Marty
ReplyDeleteI just love everything you have done but the sugar scoop or scuttle captured my heart. I just bought an old one the other day for the shop but I may have to use it for an Easter scene first before I sell it. Thank you so much for the inspiration. xo Lynn

My very favorite "container" is the sugar scuttle. I have been looking for one for a long time. I have found a few but not just the right one. I love the little nest in yours..and...personally I don't think it's pushing it all that much. It's sweet and I stand up for it! :)
ReplyDeleteAll of your cloches are lovely.
Happy Easter to you my dear friend!
Mona
Everything is so pretty! I love all of your cloches ... so springy!

Oh my goodness...I love all your cloches...such cute arrangements/vignettes! I am going to have to copy the sugar scuttle! What a great idea for when it's not being used for sugar! Love it! :-)
ReplyDeleteHappy Easter, Martha!

Martha, I missed this post. All of your cloches look so cute, but how clever to use the sugar scuttle as a container for the bird nest. That looks so cute! laurie
