I know we all have a lot on our minds right now. We’re homebound, isolated, and feeling stressed about this new normal and what lies ahead. It’s an unprecedented, crazy and somewhat scary time. I think we’re all feeling this way and there is comfort in seeing communities come together, being there for each other, rallying the cry to support small businesses, and taking care of our elderly neighbors. While I wish the circumstances were different, I’m at peace spending time with my family AT HOME. And with the arrival of Spring, and Easter just a few weeks away, I couldn’t think of anything happier to share than the pretty pastels (and a few cute bunnies) of the season. I know there are bigger things than decorating your home going on in the world…but I also know how much I appreciate a little distraction from the news of the day. I hope looking at some new things or ideas gives you a little break too.

Ever since my kids were young, I’ve tried to find placemats to change up the mood of their meals. If I wasn’t going to change my dishes, at least I could change up their table space!
Bunny Bonanza!
Okay, let’s face it. Bunnies are just cute. They make us smile. They’re perfect touches indoors and out for spring and summer. And they don’t have to look like kids play. I found a few favorites below.
I don’t know that I’ll ever invest in a complete place setting of bunny-ware. But these salad size plates are too cute to pass up…not just cute, they’re elegant too. I love the soft whites and grays that can tie into farmhouse chic. Won’t these be perfect layered with your white china and porcelain? Imagine your kids’ and grandchildren’s delight in having breakfast or afternoon snacks on such a special dish! https://go.shopyourlikes.com/pi/7d9721f7fab74635963fb97fc28e5250528636b8?afId=697426&afCreativeId=2996I see so many possibilities for this sweet bunny. Love it as a candy dish. But what about as a place to put your jewelry when you take off your treasures at night? Perhaps some potpourri, or a beautiful soap in a powder room? I think you get the idea. Simple and sweet…and sure to make you smile .https://go.shopyourlikes.com/pi/d4408c77eb8e185a26a1af252392ebf61329f30e?afId=697426&afCreativeId=2996

Hi Jill, always good to see something from you. Like you said there is a lot going on now and the news can be so depressing it is just nice to know you ate there for us with your beautiful decorating ideas or easy recipes that help us get our minds on something more cheerful and makes us smile. Hope you n your family is well and stay safe!☺❤
As hard as things are right now, we can always find something to be grateful for. The hard working doctors and nurses, the flowers in the yard, friends that call to check on you. When panic overwhelms you, seek Gods peace with just a few minutes of stillness and prayer. This will pass, enjoy the pretty dishes and flowers, call friends that you hadn’t spoken to in awhile, you brighten their day and you will feel better.
Are you kidding me? Nobody cares about decorating right now! People have more important things on their minds right now. People are worried about their next pay check and kids are going hungry. Shame on you for trying to make a buck from decorations!! You say your at peace at home? That is really thoughtful of you since many people are struggling. You are unbelievable!
Oh Jill, I have a collection of salad plates from Pottery Barn, Pier 1, Penny’s, etc. Spring flowers in the plates’ holder now, bunnies closer to Easter, green ferns for summer, pumpkins for fall, and Santas at Christmas.
Come April first, my faux gray bunnies from Valerie and Pier 1 will decorate our family room.
Oh Jill, thank you for a few moments of “prettiness”!! I am so looking forward to all of us getting back to some form of normalness … and you on the Today Show with Hodie and Jenna! In the meantime, I will follow you, kid!!! Be safe!
Love your blog. Everything is so adorable. I just wish you could find some bunnies like the ones you had on QVC. I could just kick myself for not getting those… Blessings to you and your family
