Welcome to Debbie-Dabble Blog!!
Click HERE to see this post if you missed it.....
I want to Thank Angie, over at God's Growing Garden, for choosing my post, "Found Treasures" as one of her features from last week's Tuesdays with a Twist Link Party!!!
Thanks again, Angie!!!
Please stop by and link up to this great party!!
Sunday, Day 6....Decorated the 3 Trees and the platform under the 7 ft. slim Tree for Easter in the Living Room including the garland on the TV Entertainment Center....
Monday, Day 7..... It was a beautiful day.... Sunny with temps in the low 60's!
I was going to start the Dining Room..
But I changed my mind...... The rest of the week has rain predicted almost every day...
So I took advantage of that and packed away the remnants of Christmas decorations, like garland and snowmen, that I left out as Winter decorations, along with the Winter decorations....
I then swept the porch, moved a few things around and decorated for Easter after Joe hauled everything back down to our storage shed and brought back the other chair and table.....
So today, I will be starting my Easter Room by Room Home Tour with the Front Porch......
Now I do not do a lot of decorating outside for Easter because I live in NEPA!
This is why.....
Our highest record snowfalls happened in March with 2 Blizzards!!!
The Blizzard of 93 was also in March , dumping 26-28 inches of snow on our area!!!
And it is not uncommon for us to still get snow in April!!
In fact, up til 2 years ago, I hardly decorated outside for Easter because of this...
Front Porch , 2022....
In May of 2022, Joe came home with all of this from Big Lot's!!!
So last year, 2023, I decided to decorate a bit more outside using some of the signs he bought!!!
$1.50
$1.50
$1.60
He bought these the year before for 90% off...
80 Cents
$1.20
I bought this for a $1.00 at a church flea market many years ago...
For a total of $7.60.....
I did add a few more things....
Joe also bought this lawn stake for 90% off, $1.00....
The rabbit was on top but broke off so I put it in the pot....
This is a lawn stake that I bought last year in Dollar Tree....$1.25....
I made the egg wreath many years ago....
The "weeping" mortar, that was in style in the 70's when our townhouse was built, enables me to hang things on the front of the house....
Last year, I made a bow out of pink and green ribbon from Dollar Tree.....$2.00 ( bought before they increased to $1.25)
I placed this sign, which has a stand in the back, on the table.....
In the corner of the porch.....
I was able to make a second bow from those 2 ribbons....
Thanks to those who took the time out of their busy day to spend a little bit of time with me!!

Your front yard has the hope and promise of Spring! I always remind myself on the warm days about my friend Marilyn. She was expecting her second child the first week of April. It started to snow and she went into labor. By the time she left her farmhouse, they had to borrow his brothers four wheel drive truck with a CB radio. They could barely make it down the road and up the next road to the highway. By the time they got to the highway, a snow plow was waiting to plow the way to the hospital where her daughter was born ten minutes later. I never start really thinking about Spring until mid-April. And like you, if we get plants too early, it is a constant shuttle to the garage to avoid the frost. One year I went early for hanging baskets and every night I would have to move them to my dining room table. You can imagine the mess.
ReplyDeleteIt looks lovely!
Spring has sprung ! Your porch is so beautiful and cheery. I love the Easter egg wreath .I have always wanted to make one . The flags are as cute as a button. Enjoy your day, Deb. Hugs.

Your porch is gorgeous, Deb! I love all the bright colors and the touches you've added to make it extra special. It looks like such a fun and festive way to celebrate the spring season. I can't get over all the stuff Joe finds. He could teach a class on how to be an expert shopper! Hugs, CoCo
ReplyDeleteWow, 90% off! What a deal--that's amazing. The porch is so fun and inviting. Visiting from Happy Hearts & Homes.
