Bye bye Easter.
When I was younger we always had an Easter tree. To start with it was blown decorated eggs but when we moved to Germany M found gorgeous wooden Easter decorations that I have loved ever since she bought them. The last few years I have spent most Easter commiserating with myself that I didn't have and couldn't find a similar set for myself. Because Easter isn't Easter without an Easter tree you know.
This year however, I found some. In Paperchase of all places! I was thrilled. They aren't quite as pretty as M's but they are all mine and a good place to start my collection.
It was just a shame to put them away yesterday. The house always feels so empty when you take decorations down. It will feel especially empty this week as G is away at Brat Camp and whilst I do appreciate a little peace and quiet it is awfully lonely to come home to an empty house.
