A glimpse of Spring, it won't be Long now!

Hi, my prims,  I have to say why I am doing a touch of Spring is because it is going to be nasty weather here in New England this week. So, I figured it would be fun to show you a few things I took out to make it feel like Spring is near!!!

This bunny that you see is special to me because my mother gave him to me many years ago. I think he looks so cute in the trencher with some prim easter eggs, what do you girls think!!!



Here is another yelloware bowl that I filled with grass and eggs. Soon the birds will be laying their eggs outside and we can't wait to see them. A couple of years ago a blue bird was right in our bush on our deck and we saw her and saw her feed her babies and she trusted us because she let us come so close to the nest. We could see her feeding her babies with their cute mouths wide open. Now every year the babies that are grown come back and have their families right in the same spot!!!! So, we can't wait for them to come back!


This picture shows a beautiful plate and bowl that I just love because of the blue that is on it.
Blue is coming back, it is a colonial color which I just love! Then next to it is another yelloware bowl
with primitive eggs in it.



This picture below shows a blue bowl, with a stoneware pattern and I fell in
love with it, so today I filled it up with hay and my primitive eggs that I collect every year, with the fly screen
on the side of the bowl to add character.



This is a primitive duck that I bought last year and he looks very happy where he is, he is so cute,don't
you think?


This picture is a basket that I love. I collect baskets and I will be showing you more baskets later in another post. It is filled with thin candles that I ordered last year from a friends selling blog, and the picture next to the basket was just to cute and I loved the way it looked!!!


Now everyone has a blanket crane, well I saw this with Mr. Hillcrest and said I bet I could
use this just like a blanket crane and gosh darn it worked. I love the way it looks!!!!!


Mr. Hillcrest found this little outfit and he knew I would love it so he surprised me with it. Someone really did a wonderful job putting this together. Thank you Honey for always thinking of me!!! I love you.


We just love to go on a hunt for old items that have history behind them.
This is an old mineral oil bottle, one pint. Maybe someone years ago bought this in a small general store. I found it so great to know that there is still so many grand old pieces that we can still find today!


I found this jar that is dated 1842, and Mr. Hillcrest made a tag and I put in homemade Grandma's oatmeal soap! It is great for poison ivy, you should try it.


This pillow I ordered from Teresa from APP she has a blog and a selling blog, and I fell in love this because
it reminds me of Spring, and Teresa does such wonderful work. this pillow is made out of wool and is breath taking, thank you Teresa for such a great pillow!!!


This is a shelf that I just love, and the color too.



This picture I love because it is so peaceful and quaint.



Okay, now my samplers or stitcheries, some people call them. This one is my new one I bought two weeks ago.  I am collecting them. I just love the way they look in a display and a gathering on a wall.



This one I bought years ago and it looks like a child did it.


This one is true, Welcome to our home!!!!!! Just beautiful!!


This is my favorite because the saying is so true and beautiful, Heaven is under our feet
as well as over our heads! That is so true. Betty Thompson age 7 1875.


This 5 gallon stone ware crock is special because Mr. Hillcrest and I are starting to collect the salt glazed jugs and crocks with the blue prints on them, and they are expensive, but worth it. They are going on top of our livingroom cabinet.

Here is our first piece!!!



Okay prims, I am done for now. I hope you enjoyed your time here at Hillcrest Home Prims because I enjoy having you.

Until next time stay safe and remember Spring is around the corner.,
Prim Hugs,
Tricia
