Treasures and Trinkets Thursday - My Easter Mantel

Okay folks, it's time for our weekly Treasures & Trinkets Thursday!

Let's get through the rules quickly so you can link up and get started.

1. Link up something you love, but it has to be something you own

2. Link back to my blog on your post, cause it's the nice thing to do. :)

3. Grab my Treasures and Trinkets button so you won't forget the party next week! :)

Yesterday I said I was going to show you what I did with these when I turned them from this...

To this...............

Well here we go! I worked on my mantel for Easter a couple of days ago. Thought you might like to see what I did! :)

Here it is.............

See these sweet little bunnies.......they sway back and forth when you touch them. :) They have some very cute details. See the pink, cream and purple part on the bottom of her dress..........it's covered in a clear glass mosaic. So cute! I tucked little eggs here and there all over the mantel. See the picture behind the bunny??

It's actually this.....

an antique puzzle. There's one on the other end of the mantel as well. I just LOVE these puzzles!

Here's the other end of the mantel...... I love the pitcher! I got it one summer at an auction. I had to bid on an entire box of junk to get that piece, but I'm glad I did!

Here it is up close. Those little roses are all made of a bisque porcelain... I do adore this piece. :)

Here's the plate I put in the middle...I got it at my favorite local antique place, Peddler's Mall. I think I only paid $5 bucks for it!

I just love the sweet little pink roses!

Beside the plate, to the right, I have this little bird bath that I used to use in my bathroom as a soap dish until my hubby knocked it off and broke it. I glued it back together and thought I would use it to hold bird seed out on my patio, but I grabbed it to use on my mantel because it was white....who cares if it has some cracks! (and some glue showing...shhh...don't tell!) LOL It's gonna go on my patio after Easter though. :)

I have these topiaries that always flank the sides of my fireplace. I thought they would be cute with easter eggs....what do you think? :)

Here's one more look! :)

Hope you enjoyed it! Don't forget to link up!
