My sister bought me a crown!
She must think I am a princess!
Or maybe she finally realized that it's not a joke, I really am the Queen of Everything!
No matter what her reason was for buying me the crown that was on sale, marked down to a closeout price, I LOVE it!!!
I knew my crown needed to be seen, so I decided to make a royal spring centerpiece.
When Pookie (my sister) gave me the crown it was a chippy blue.
I needed my crown to be a noticeable bright chippy white, so I painted it.
I started gathering some treasures to surround my crown.
These cute ceramic birds added some spring to the centerpiece.
I considered adding this wire egg basket to the display but it wasn't really giving off a royal vibe.
I knew I needed something a little Easter-y so I went with some gold eggs in the picture below.
I mean this is a "royal" centerpiece!
Still not able to get past the egg idea, I filled up this wire cloche with eggs....unbelievably I didn't break one egg!!!
As much as I liked the way this looked, my husband said he would prefer for us to eat our eggs rather than display them in a royal centerpiece.
He is weird like that sometimes, obviously he is not a blogger!
Then the untrained decorator part of me thought it would look nice with some tall candlesticks to balance everything out.
And just like a real princess I declared that I was right about the candlesticks!
Therefore I present you the official royal spring centerpiece!
I want to thank my sister for my crown!
It's funny she is always mentioning what a royal pain in the "behind" I am.
Just kidding, she loves me...I mean she bought me this crown....just like I ordered her I mean asked her to.
Can you guess who's who in our baby picture?
My sister is gazing into the future deciding how she wants to conquer the world!
I look like someone was dangling a french fry in front of me!

ReplyDeleteVery pretty, Lori! What a good sister! Your centerpiece looks great and, it's funny, but I use my tall candlesticks the same way. I think I put everything but candles on them! Happy Easter!
ReplyDeleteThx Kathy!! That's funny, I just bought silver globes for some silver candlesticks I have. I like displaying things on them! Thx for stopping by!
DeleteWhy your Majesty, what a beautiful crown your sister bought you! You have decorated it up wonderfully inside and out! I thoroughly enjoyed your post about it too! :) Love that your hubby doesn't think eggs are for decorating - had the same reaction from mine when I used them on my Easter table!
