Spring is sprung! Well, it’s started to!
After the winter that wasn’t, Mother nature has decided to
start spring a little earlier this year, and not a week too soon!
Snowdrops
are in bloom, daffodil, hyacinth and tulip foliage is bursting through the unfrozen
soil, and bluebirds have been spotted! And the spring catalogues have arrived,
chock full of fresh, new bed linens in leafy greens and sky blue, breezy cotton
curtains and all the springtime
accessories you can swing a golf club at! What’s a girl to do faced with all
these bright new things arriving in her mailbox daily?
Well,
although the temptation is to repaint the walls, buy new rugs, bedding,
furniture and fill the house with daffodils, I will stick to switching my faux
fur toss pillows and throw ( thank you for a cozy winter, Restoration Hardware!)
and bring out the cool linen covers and sage green throws. The winter table
centerpiece has morphed into a springtime feast of white flowers and green moss
with a few decorative eggs thrown in as homage to the season, and yes, daffodils
are adorning the coffee table!
It
doesn’t take a lot to freshen up a room, or the whole house, and it sure does
give you a feeling of immense satisfaction, so go on, it’s time for a change!
