Easter collecting can cover all the same categories as the other holidays. Ornaments, cards, toys, tableware, as well rabbit items, eggs and baskets. Shown are a few fun pieces, many new for 2011.
Vaillancourt Country Bunny
New for 2010 is the chalk ware Country Bunny, a full 10" tall and retailing for $150.
From Vaillancourt:
The Country Bunny has been finished in a new technique that involves a new process and products. First two coats of a latex toner are applied then a fine paste wax as a sealant. The piece is then buffed with a soft cloth to give it a warm luster. This process gives the piece a more matte finish with a rich patina.
Carrot Hop Ornament
Jingle Nog has just about the best whimsical glass ornaments around and they've done it again with Carrot Hop. And as always, their ornaments always have a story to tell:
Spotted incognito in the carrots,
hopping with a plie while hiding in the haricots vert,
keeping company with the kale,
having a thumping good time in the turnips,
the carrot hop as it is so called,
prevails.
