Vintage Easter Greetings

I have shared many types of vintage cards over the years, but I think vintage Easter cards are one of my favorites.  Vintage cards have a beauty that is sadly missing from the cards of today.  So grab a cup of coffee or a glass of sweet iced tea and enjoy perusing the art of a time gone by...

Matthew 28:6 He is not here; He has risen...
Such rosy cheeks!
Mr. Easter Bunny is painting this egg with lovely pastels.
This bunny looks so serious! I think I will stay out of her cabbage patch!
I love cards with chicks.  These are so cute! I enjoy reading the sentiments.  My how they have changed!
This card appears to be from Holland.  Wonder what he plans to do with that paddle?!
Such a sweet card...
One of my favorites...
Now this is a strange one.  Elves and Easter?
Based on the airship on the card, this one must date from around the late 1920's.
How about one more? This card is from Anna.  I wonder who she sent it to?
Hope you enjoyed our little trip to yesteryear.  Wishing Everyone a Glad Eastertide!

    1. I know what you mean about going back to a simpler time. I guess that's why I love vintage aprons, cooking items, cards, and linens. It brings a little piece of that time into this time! Have a wonderful day!

  2. I have always loved vintage postcards. I have many Halloween and a few Christmas. The graphics on your Easter cards are fabulous - I especially like the one from Holland. I am so fascinated with the handwriting on those old cards, so beautiful. Happy Easter to you! Jane

    1. Wasn't the handwriting beautiful? I also love the way they had with words. I shared a few Halloween vintage cards as well. Put this in your search and you can check out the Halloween ones. http://stillwoodsfarmhouse.blogspot.com/2014/10/a-vintage-happy-halloween.html

A Trip Down Memory Lane

I had planned to share my new front door decor, but alas, like many residents of the MS Gulf Coast, all  loose outside objects have been secured as we await the arrival of Hurricane Isaac. Instead, I thought I would share with you a set of my favorite dinnerware.  I began collecting Memory Lane ironstone many years ago, but my love of the pattern began when I was just a little girl.  My Grandma Mercer had one dinner plate.  I imagine that she picked it up either in a box of laundry soap or as a reward for shopping at the IGA of Chattahoochee, Florida.  I came to love her one plate.  My grandmother would make sure that my food was served on that plate no matter what other dinnerware pattern was set on her table!  When she passed away, I was blessed to receive her dining room set which included a lovely buffet with glass knobs along with the matching table and chairs.  I also received my Memory Lane plate. During my search for more pattern pieces, I found out that Memory Lane is consi

Fun Fall Door Decor

I am ready for the heat of summer to be over and the cool breezes of fall to head our way.  My sister called me the other day and said she wanted to pull out her autumn decorations and to that I say "Amen, Sista"! We both can't wait to say, "Happy Fall Ya'll"!! In the meantime, I need to update my fall door decor and have been looking for a few, fresh ideas.  Better Homes and Gardens had some wonderful fall wreath ideas.  I adore this unusual "wreath" made from a rake. Who said a wreath must be round? Etsy and Pinterest have an abundance of wreath ideas including several swags to use on your harvest door. Another cute idea from Better Homes and Gardens. It makes me think of  warm apple crisp topped with a dollop of whipped cream!   Yum!  Or how about those wonderfully apple scented candles?  Love those! Monograms are all the rage.  I think this would be a simple wreath to make.  Raise your hand if you like simple projects! Super cu

Thanksgiving Dinnerware to Grace Any Table

Southern Living recently published an article entitled "Turkey Plate Special" chronicling the origins of certain patterns.  Who knew that when Abraham Lincoln declared Thanksgiving a national holiday in 1863, we would end up with beautiful transferware patterns honoring the official bird of Thanksgiving?  I was excited to see my pattern, "His Majesty" by Johnson Brothers in the article.  We lovingly call these our Traveling Turkey Dishes.  Click  here  to find out why! I set our Reading Room   table with His Majesty for a quick peek at this beautiful pattern.  I love my "Traveling Turkey Dishes".  It is a joy to get them out and use them throughout November.  I also love this old table.  It has the scars of a well lived life and reminds me so much of my sweet grandmother who loved it as much as I do. A close up of His Majesty shows the lovely colors of the season.  I don't own the turkey platter, but it is on my wish list! (Replacements) Anot
