Vintage Easter Blog Hop

Hello, and welcome to A Vintage Easter Blog Hop, hosted by Joan of http://thepottingshed-anythinggoeshere.blogspot.com/ Thank you so much Joan for hosting this fun party! First, I have some sweet vintage card images to share with you. I just love this little blue bird and chick.

This is a vintage vignette I have put together. The two postcard images here, are ornaments that you can hang. They have a clear plastic covering over the top, and little gold accents on the corners. Please click on any picture to enlarge. The vintage bunny pushing the cart was a find in a little boutique in town, and is covered in glitter. It may look like polka dotted but it's not.


A vintage candy box. These are hard to find.



Now, I had purchased this vintage patent handbag, with the idea to put flowers in it. I just set a tall glass inside the purse, and you can fill it with water for real flowers, or put fake ones in if you want to. I have used it with tulips as well. Truly a conversation piece. I thought it would be befitting for today, since it is vintage. Get out your vintage evening purses with short handles, and hang them on a wall with vintage pictures in them. Really cute.

This little vintage chick has a delivery to make with his vintage cart. click on pics to enlarge.





A little vintage chick figurine, it doesn't have any marks on it. The little girl carrying her precious baby chicks is a Lefton piece. The little chocolate bunnies are from a catalog.







These are real eggs done in a vintage style, that I purchased from an egg show a few yrs ago. The one on the left is a pretty Victorian lady. Click on the picture to see the beautiful cut out work on this. The one on the right is a goose egg I believe. This one is gorgeous trimmed in rhinestones. The amazing thing is, it opens to reveal a little treasure box lined in velvet.






I can't imagine how tedious it must be to make one of these. They hold the egg shows in March, and they all are truly a work of art. I think I paid about 35.00 for this one.







I just love this little bear, with her mohair sweater and little hat. A florist in town has these at Easter time, and I just love them. The little yellow chicks in the egg, was a find in Fortunoff. The egg is decorated in the prettiest aqua colored foil.







This is my collection of vintage egg vases, that I purchased on e-bay. Some of these are made by Napcoware, and some just have numbers on the bottom. I am on the hunt for a pink one now.
Another little girl bear is all decked out in her pink sweater. I just love these!






Here is a candy dish that I made in ceramics back in 1971. Does that count as vintage? I loved going to ceramics, and I started when I was about 19. I only have a few pieces left, as most of them went out of style. Well, I hope you enjoyed your visit. I hope everyone has a blessed Easter. Don't forget and stop by Joan's to see the other participants!

You've got lots of sweet little Easter treasures Debbie! I especially like your egg vase collection! Oh, and the candy box too. And I'm always amazed at how real eggs can be used to make decorations. I've got a collection of Czech hand painted eggs, and I can't believe they make it back home from Wisconsin in one piece every year!
Happy Easter!

My little chick coming out of its egg was made by me in 1972 in ceramics class age 12. Yup I am afraid if mine piece is vintage, yours is too. All lovely by the way.

Hi, Debbie,
Thank you for coming by for a visit. In answer to your question about the white part on the cupcakes, I am not sure what it is. I am guessing white chocolate of some sort. Have a wonderful day! Vicki
