The beginning of SPRING might be my favorite time of the year. That’s because after months of suffering from cold weather I can appreciate sunshine and flowers even more.
Officially its not spring yet, but I’ve already made up an “Osterstrauch” due to the sunny days we had in Cambridge. It really lifts your mood when looking at it. Its an Austrian tradition to have a “Easter tree” in your house leading up to Easter. It is a symbol for new growth, fertility and life.
You need:
- a nice vase (!)
- tree branches -cherry/apple or forsizia branches which start flowering when brought into a warm environment
- spring flowers
- hanging Easter eggs (real ones or made from clay) and other Easter ornaments
