We've been having unseasonably warm weather here and I'm not complaining. I took my collection of German wooden Easter ornaments out on the balcony and had a little photo shoot in order to share them with you.
Most people tend to think of the wooden Christmas ornaments, but after years of hunting I've managed to amass quite a collection of bunnies, eggs and birdies.
When I've gotten really lucky, I've found some oldies that are crackled. They stand out because they tend to have a small metal eye screw for the string instead of the modern version where they're directly attached to the ornament.
Next week daycare is closed. I've planned a few posts ahead for you but I'll be taking a computer break and not keeping up my usual level of interaction. Fret not, I always come back and until then you can go peek at the goats that greeted you last year!
Happy Easter or whatever you celebrate my dear friends of the blog-o-sphere! xxx tj
Hope you have a happy Easter TJ.
Hugs Lily

Omgoodness! I love all of those bunnies! I bought my mom a little bunny band a few years back but they were outrageously expensive. We have nothing like those here. So cute!

Great bunny ornaments! I like the idea of an "Easter tree", just like a Christmas tree. I've seen a little bit of that over here, but it's not that common. Enjoy your week!

That's some collection. Very cute. Have you ever made an Easter tree? I always say I will, but the ornaments mostly stay in the box and get admired. You at least got them out and took photos.

Psst: Guilty confession... those wooden ornaments stayed in a pile in a basket and never got properly displayed. A tree or a painted hanging branch are most certainly in order for next year!!!

What a beautiful collection. Love the way you've arranged them in a circle for the photograph.
