I had never been a fan of Easter because it always seemed to be the adverse of Halloween. Easter's pastel sweetness made me want to barf. I am more into all shades of black and bleak. Easter's embrace of newness and fresh beginnings makes me uncomfortable, like being in a sterile padded cell. I love the feeling of ancient and old. Easter is an extrovert while I am a Halloween introvert.
But then a few years ago I started to look at Easter in a dusty, dim light and realized that decrepit old Easter stuff is very Halloween-esque and I have been slowly loving this season as well.
This year I did a small bit of decorating in the dining room.
I also did a centerpiece for the table:
This photo makes it appear as a display since the table cloth is kind of a back drop. I was having back lighting issues when I took the photo so I had to take it in a wonky kind of way.
Whew! Finally! The holidays are officially over! It starts with Halloween and ends with Easterween!
