Am Hof Market

After the Freyung, I went down the street a block to a market area known as the Am Hof.

Freyung Easter Market

Today, I went to the 3 Easter markets in the city.  They were all in the same locations where some of the Christmas markets were, so it was easy to find them.

The first market I went to was in an old area of the city called the Freyung.

If you love hand-painted eggs, this is the place for you!

Spring has sprung in my apartment!

I'm officially on Easter Break now!  Woo hoo!  :)

Even though the weather's been very indecisive about how to behave - it alternates between being sunny and snowy - it's officially Spring in my apartment.

I've had fun decorating with flowers and colors!  :)

My living room

My goody basket that I decorated with crafty items

Pinterest ideas for decorating glass jars - lace, ribbon and twine.

A rose bud fell off of the stem, so I stuck it into a wine goblet with pearls. I'm not sure how long it'll last without water, but oh well.

The tall vase in the background was my sad attempt at a Pinterest project. I put 2 paint colors into the bottom of the vase and swirled it around, but it doesn't look as nice as the professionals' vases. :-/

Phoebe, my owl puppet, meets a sweet ceramic bird that I found in a craft store, which is where I also found these felt butterflies.

I'm currently going through an owl phase.

My kitchen table

I found these wooden balls at a Euro store and haven't yet used them for anything, so they're currently surrounding 2 candle holders in a photo frame.

I framed these gorgeous napkins and decorated the frames with lace, pearls, doilies, and felt butterflies.

My cupboards feature postcards that I bought at the Hundertwasserhaus last month. They're sooo appropriate for Spring!

My fridge says, "Flowers and coffee make me happy."

It's true!

I decorated this frame with nail polish.
