Look at what the Easter bunny sent me! (OK, it is a present I got for myself from William Sonoma's catalog to celebrate Spring...my friend Jenny told me that I need to be good to myself and make sure I give myself lots of "treats" and I am merely taking her advice.)
I am a nut for nests. And birds. Oh, and bunnies. You'll find nests and birds (and a few bunnies) tucked all around in nooks and crannies in my home...I just love 'em.
The nest is a nice large size, I'd say about 10 inches or so across. And, do you see those cute little eggs? Just my most recent favorite color. And the best part? They're chocolate truffles! Ya baby!
I wanted to put the nest full of eggs on my coffee table, but I fear Mr. Moose will have a 15 second party with them and then be cruising around the house with chocolate on his breath, and a nest on his head...so, instead I have chosen to showcase this darling nest of eggs on the kitchen table...aah, safe and sound, and ready for Easter, and spring. (Now, if I can just stay away from them until the kids arrive for Easter!)

That is so pretty, and I agree -- it's important to treat yourself sometimes. It's lovely! :)

How sweet is that nest! I have to ask how long it took you to refinish that hutch in your last post? I spent a morning painting my trestle desk black and WAS SO OVER IT by the time i finished i fear i'll never get to the bookcase that i got for the express purpose of painting to match the darn desk LOL. beautiful job on it by the way - your home is SO warm and inviting. very lovely.

Love, love the nest & yummy eggs!!
I just posted about my attempt at setting out almond M&M's in these darling pink candy dishes that I just got at a thrift store... and I ate the whole dad-gum dish full! So good luck!
