[Henry Osborne]

Hi Nella and everyone, wow, my Mom had so many Easter decorations, thtat it 
is hard to pick just a few.
She had a popsicle stick church that was painted white, and she had a 
miniature bunny family ( Mama, Papa, and 2 bunny kids walking towards it.
she also made me the best Easter Baskets with lots of candy and a couple of 
Matchbox cars tucked inside too.

My friends mother made these Mr. and Mrs. Bunny's that were crochet.  She 
gave me a set which I still have and get out each year.  The Mrs. has white 
pearl looking beads around her neck and she is pink in color with a dress 
on.  The Mr. is blue in color and his clothing look like overalls.  She also 
used the "Leggs" brand eggs and crochet around them and made an Easter Bunny 
with green grass looped around the base of the egg.

Hello to all you crafters out there.



I apologize for not sending this out yesterday; my life is really crazy 
right now and I have too much going on.



Since Easter is on Sunday I thought we should have a question for the 
occasion.



Can you remember a hand crafted Easter gift that you received?



What was it and who made it for you?



I remember my great aunt Ester made me an Easter basket out of a bucket.  I 
believe some type of food came in the bucket.  She covered it with fabric, 
put grass in it and lots of candy.  She also put hair bows and a few other 
little gifts in the bucket.  It had a big bow and was pretty pastel colors.



My Mom put the basket on my night stand, so it was the first thing I saw 
when I woke up.  I was so excited.



A couple of years later my Mom made me a stuffed rabbit out of pastel 
fabrics.  I still have that rabbit, but it does look a little raggedy.  I 
think it is 40 years old.



I can't wait to hear all of your stories.



Nella
