Yellow is the New Spring



Isn't it funny how colors come and go. And why is it that as soon as magazines start talking about a color, we get on board.

I am loving bright yellow, and a few years ago I would never have been drawn to this sunshine of a color. 

Featured is this vintage large yellow Easter or anytime basket. I can see it in front of our summer fireplace full of daisies, or summer throws for that occasional chilly summer evening, or with white birch logs, changing the scene for the warmer months. Those cute little made in Italy Vietri pottery bird mugs add a nice touch of yellow also.

 



A cotton sprig and wooden bunny on a twig wreath, display no yellow, but the arrangement sure shines on our back yellow storm/screen door.













And I LOVE this chandelier. It is made of heavy enameled iron and would go with vintage styles, including 50's, as well as modern, but would also add a pop of color to any kitchen. I keep trying to find another one on ebay or etsy just to find out more about it but so far no go. Is is just plain fun and unique.





Finally, these egg shaped and decorated placemats. What a bright accent for your porch or patio table in the warmer areas of the country. And if your Easter is going to be cold and dreary as is forecast for the midwest, it will just have to festive up your kitchen or gathering room. I loved the little yellow pitcher with them, but that item has sold. All these items will be available this week from Thursday, March 24 - Saturday March 26 at Stella & Notte 1416 N. Main in Rockford, IL. We will have treats and good company for your visiting and shopping enjoyment. Looking forward to your visit. And may all of you have a very happy and blessed Easter, the message of the vintage yard stakes and large home made Easter Egg greeting.
