Favorite Pottery

We are still in the throes of a deep winter........so decorating for spring seems silly to me!!  We won't see spring till May up here.  Not ready for tulips or daffodils yet.  So, for a late winter display I got out my pottery, soft colors for now.

And my fav place for display is on my kitchen window ledge.  The lighting in here turns everything yellow, but in real life its not this color!!!

The yummy colander was gifted to me by my BFF....love the glazing....

I thought root veggies were good to display now because they are kept in a root cellar for the winter.......no, I don't have one of those!!

I have a passion for nests and use them year round, not just for spring.  This little pottery planter was found at Hobby Lobby, my fav store for retail therapy......

Isn't that little metal tray the cutest thing??  The metal rabbit is actually a place card holder...

The pottery pot I've had for years, one of my favorite things.......I put in flowers with a cream/beige color, a refreshing change from all the bold colors.  It makes everything light in here.

My old pie plate on a vintage garden book, is the perfect back drop for Mrs. Bunny.  Little vase was a gift from an old friend so many years ago.

One last pic of that stunning colander with baby bunny ready for a snack!!!

We have warmed up to 20 degrees today........see my previous post for the snow shots.  And, just gotta say, I love winter and am not ready for it to end yet.....you probably think I am crazy.......but there are so many indoor projects to complete yet.......

Hope you are all well and enjoying whatever type of weather you are having.........hugs, Cleo

Front door is blocked with tons of snow, can't be opened yet....

Well I think that your displays are gorgeous and do have a touch of Spring! Love the pottery pieces and you have so many lovely bunnies. The root veggies were so fun and made me think of Peter Rabbit. We have hardly had a winter here this year. We finally got snow the past two days. Have not had any since Christmas Eve. Living where we depend on winter water it truly was a blessing. On the other hand it's going to warm back up and my daffodils are in bud.
hugs,
Jann

Hello Cleo- thank you for visiting my blog today. I like this pottery- great pictures! I wish I could say I love winter since we get so much of the white stuff here- it just seems to last way too long! It does encourage you to stay home and get more done!
