Easter is almost upon us and that means "Let's decorate some eggs"! You can buy those little plastic sleeves that you shrink wrap around your egg for that "perfect look" but how absolutely generic. Egg dyes, stickers, pompoms, and glitter whahoo; that's what little eggs are made of! Those eggs may not be perfect but they are yours... or your child's. To get in the mood put on some music such as this late 50's or early 60's vinyl record. "Here comes Peter Cottontail", dip those eggs, "hopping down the bunny trail", add some glitter, "hippity, hoppity, Easter's on its way". Not all of these Easter egg dye packets are old. Some of them are from when our kids were small, but I liked the packaging, so I either kept the package or bought an extra one for myself. Both of these Braun dye packets are European and are from the late 80's or early 90's. The European package illustrations are so much more interesting than the contemporary North American illustrations. There were food colour transfers and decals to decorate your eggs included with the egg dyes in this 1960's packet. Fleck's egg dyes had wonderful full colour illustrations on their packaging. They also had small stickers that you cut out and stuck onto the egg to create the characters illustrated on the outside of the package. The back and front of this Fleck's dye package is absolutely delightful. These stickers are inside to create the characters shown. I know someone out there is saying "What's the difference between a modern shrink wrapper for an egg and one of these characters for your dyed egg". I guess not a lot, but you can put it on the egg anywhere you like. A child's attempt at achieving the exact same look will be stamped with that child's personality not the perfection of infallible modern technology. There were twelve transfers in this package to decorate your dyed or plain eggs. The transfer was soaked in water for one minute and then slid off of the paper onto the egg and would be used in conjunction with the following Heitmann egg dyes. This package of egg decorating supplies has four sets of rabbit face transfers, four pairs of paper ears to cut out to add onto your eggs, and five colours of dye. Heitmann produces egg dye sold under the name of Iris if you wish to just dye eggs and not use transfers or if you are on a budget. These pages of punch out images were ready to wrap around your dyed eggs. They were then ready go on the table as part of the Easter decorations. Paas egg decorating kits had six different colours of dye, an egg dipper, and twenty eight transfers. I have no idea what egg decorating kit these came with but the images look like they could be 1930's or 1940's. I debated about including all of these dye transfers but I figured that they may inspire someone out there for a project or design. Let me know if they have been useful. The designs are printed in dye on tissue paper. they are cut out individually applied to the egg and then a damp cloth dipped into a vinegar and water solution is wrapped around the egg to transfer the design to the egg. The images are quite charming. To get a better look at them just click on each picture.

From the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles to Fat Albert, there have been some pretty forgettable Easter Specials.
Did I hear somebody say that Easter is right around the corner? Wait until the last moment? I think not! I have been collecting rabbits for over 30 years...I keep some out all year round, but during Spring Break I bring them all out to play! Welcome to my "It's Spring, Ya'll, Open House!" My wonderful Flea Market Find = apple green basket filled with Easter Grass, my Flowers By Mary nest and my McCarty Birds. Open my backdoor and you are met by a happy vignette of Mary's eggs, tiny bunnies, velvet bunnies and my $ Tree egg tree...tree, eggs and flowers totaled $3! I've had this little egg (my son's) for almost 30 years! My centerpiece on the dining table will change throughout the season. This is my "everyday" centerpiece. On Easter Sunday, I pull out all the stops and use some vintage china and the centerpiece has to be dressed up to match...but for today, this will do. My gold dragonflies are two of my most versatile decorating accessories. Today they perch on the glass hurricanes...sometimes you catch them on my clock in the foyer and I've seen them on my Christmas tree, too! You just never know around here! My muffin keeper holds nary a muffin, but it's a wonderfully safe place for my white bunnies. I painted these crackled rosebud bunnies for my mother in ceramics class. I display them in her honor and remember how happy she was to keep them in her bedroom on the dresser year round. I don't think you can see the details of the eggs in the jar...I've run out of places to put them all, so it's the jar for these! The little rabbits are over 30 years old. Onto the buffet... On the left are very vintage bunnies on an antique cake stand. I found the paper mache candy container as naked as a jay bird at the flea market, brought him home and painted him pronto! The bunny on the left is a Peter's Pottery and the one on the right is an old Made In Japan one. Love my nest of golden eggs and feathers!! Candy container bunny is carrying a Humpty Dumpty porcelain egg I made in ceramics class a number of years ago... I tried several things in the china hutch.... before I settled on this one. I found the chicks at Cracker Barrel, the eggs are real blown out quail eggs and the Fenton hen dish was an anniversary present from the "hubster". I added a cheese dome I found at Good Will. It's sitting on the clover plates I found at the FM. I also tried the plates holding a 50 cent egg cup I found at the thrift store...Look at that cute little chick. Last, but certainly not least, is one of my favorite Easter items, my Teena Flanner bunny riding a rooster! I love Teena Flanner designs, I have several and alas when I went to take my chocolate painted TF bunny out today, one of its ears was broken and the ear was NO WHERE to be found...I was crushed. My spring decor evolves as the season ages, so who knows how it will end up by the latter part of April. I want to do a post on my sugar eggs and bunnies...maybe a tutorial. I'll work on it this week. You will have lots of fun doing those! I hope you enjoyed this little preview tour and I am linking to Dittle Dattle's Amaze Me Monday and A Stroll Thru Life. Grab the buttons below to attend... May all your bunnies be Godiva chocolate ones,
