hickorytrailblog-Just-Jared: Easter Mantel

I love this time of the year. Love to feel the subtle warmth of the sun, grass and trees turning green, flowers starting to bloom. However, I live in Florida and we have experienced warmer tempertures more than usual the last couple of years. I love cold weather, but have been depressed with the last few winters, on the account we didn't get many freezes, so I'm over it this year and moving on to spring. This year I have been so busy with baseball, life, and a few trials that I have been working through, so I kept my easter decor to a minimum.

I added to my mantel this spring a willow tree figurine. This man and woman represent "Promise". My husband and I purchased this as a token of our promises to each other. So, I plan on incorporting this going forward into all my mantel decorations no matter what the occasion.
