Spring Cloche Party

Time for Marty's Spring Cloche Party! Thanks for hosting, Marty, so we can all share our pretty cloche displays! Go here to Marty's for lots more enjoyment!
I found this iridescent yellow bunny at Hobby Lobby when we were in Knoxville recently. I love the soft pale color and the 3-D roses. It is displayed on the glass cake plate with prisms.
Isn't she lovely?
Next, we have Chantilly, another pretty bunny from Hobby Lobby!
I really like the cutwork, it looks like lace.
Marty has allowed my terrariums to be considered a type of cloche. I've enjoyed filling them with different holiday things.
I found these cuties at Dollar Tree a few years ago.
You can't help but smile when you seen them!
They are displayed on the coffee table in the family room.

I bought this unique little bunny at a craft show a long time ago.
She is made from a vintage embroidered tea towel
Without the cloche so you can see more detail.

This little wooden rabbit is a bit whimsical, but I can also see some seriousness,
almost as if he is meditating or praying!
This is why I place the Easter lilies inside the cloche with him.


This one is pretty in pink!

Remember the little egg cup bunny below?

It also holds a tea light!
Tiny bunnies playing



Here are the baby chicks!
The little figurine has a wagon with baby chickens in it
and baby chicks in their hands!
A bunny pulls the wagon!

The terrarium below is in the living room.
She has a ring of pink roses around her neck


A little praying bunny sits atop my
childhood bible, with the twig cross on top


This yellow bird with the yellow roses will be out long after the Easter things are put away.
I took this picture a few weeks ago, I have since added another yellow bird, and some yellow pearls! Like this:

I apologize for the poor quality, I had to use a flash with all these.

For my last cloche display I leave you with this one using the twig cross, tiny roses (with thorns) pearls, and a baby's pink bible. This represents Jesus dying on the cross for us after leaving His words for us to live by. A bittersweet representation.







I give thanks and praise to our Lord Jesus Christ for dying on the cross for us so we may have eternal life with Him forever and ever.

Have a Wonderfully Happy Easter!
God Bless.

All of your cloches are just beautiful. You have a collection of cloches and bunnies. A person can NEVER have too many of either. Your header is a reminder that we all need at times....sometimes we get so busy with our lives that we forget what is really important in life. Wishing you and your family a Happy Easter!

Blessings~

Katherine, I love this post. Cloches are one of my favorite things to decorate with. You have a wonderful collection and have made each one so pretty and unique. I really do think that sweet bunny is praying, that is adorable. And the Bunny made from the vintage embroidered tea towel is the cutest!
I just love this time of the year, tomorrow we head to mass for Good Friday and then will go again Sunday morning before our Easter egg hunt. I feel so peaceful and filled with hope every Easter season.
God Bless

Oh my Katherine,
You have so many beautiful cloches! I think that first one is my fave though, it just seems to glow!
Great Job!

I've never been to a cloche party before. I haven't a cloche but I've got a terrarium that's sitting empty. Thanks for the inspiration!

Kathleen said...

K...I keep getting Gazebo and Arbor mixed up!!!
You did a wonderful job. So many! And you didn't get that reflection like I always do.
I love the bunny in the cage, and the roses with the pearls is so pretty too.
Your etched cloches are lovely..I never see any like that!

Kathleen said...

I forgot to say the statue with the bunnies in their hands is so precious! And little bunnies in the wagon too!

Thank you for visiting my site and your friendly comment.

Now I visited your cloche party and I like it a lot. Hard to say what I like most. Those cloches combined with cake stands are really adorable. You decorated them lovely and each of the bunnies looks as if it feel very well inside of its private warmhouse with sweet flowers. Yes, they made me smile too. And the last cloche with the cross inside is truly significant.

Have a blessed Eastertime.

Oh Katherine...these are all just delightful cloches! The tall cupcake ones are very chic & I wish I had your terrariums but the best of the best has to be your last one with the thorny roses & cross. Outstanding!!

Have a Blessed Easter,
fondly,

You have a lot of these. I enjoyed seeing how you've used them. You have a talent for decorating.
It is another beautiful day here in Huntsville. We are having sunshine and warm temperatures. Honey Bear is outside, tilling his garden spot. He is anxious to get started planting.
Have a blessed Easter weekend,
Mama Bear

Natasha in Oz said...

You have got some beautiful cloches! I just love the little ones. I haven't seen many of those here in Australia. I love the way you have used your beautiful doilies and linens in the displays too.

Thanks for your visit the other day. We went to the hospital yesterday and the poor old thing has to have a full arm cast on for 5 weeks! He was in tears, I was in tears...what a nightmare. Your message made me feel so much better though, so thank you so much! It really meant a lot to me.

Blessings for Easter, Katherine and I hope that you enjoy this beautiful time of year.

Best wishes,
Natasha.

I think you won the prize for the most cloches.....each one so beautiful and Springy. I think my fave is the bunny made from the embroidered towel. Hope you had a wonderful weekend.
