Blog Hop and Easter Greetings

It's Blog Hop time - organised by the lovely Jo at Serendipitous Stitching the idea is to hop around everyone's blog following the links and discover the letters to reveal a hidden sayings. 

My letter is ... 

Jo asked us to share some Easter stitching so here's my Easter tree, full of ornaments I have received over many years. 


Keep my letter safe and hop over to https://lecoeurceltique.blogspot.com/ for the next one. 

My Grandmothers twig is safely in her jug (it's a branch from a twisted hazelnut tree that was in her garden and then ours before it grew too big and had to be removed, but I saved a branch) and is adorned with eggs. Our sideboard has an array of Easter decorations including two chocolate bunnies that I can't wait to enjoy and two knitted baskets from a charity giving box in aid of Ukraine. 



Wishing you all a very happy Easter, enjoying plenty of goodies and time with those you love. 


Tulip tip : pass a pin through each stem just below the flower head and they stay up straight!

Your home looks full of lovely spring colors, great displays. I kept a "slice" of the trunk of one sick tree we had to get cut in our garden too. Thank you for the letter. Joyeuses fêtes de Pâques. xxx

A lovely stitching display and I love the recycled branch with the eggs! Thanks for the pin tip, I'd never heard of that before. Hoppy Easter!

Thanks for taking part in the Easter Hop this year. I love your display, the twisty hazel is perfect for an Easter Tree.
A useful tulip trick too. I can't grow them as the deer love to eat them! I have daffodils instead which apparently are not so tasty!
