I realize I may be rushing things, but I've been longing for Spring. After the reds of Christmas and then Valentine's Day, it's time for some lighter colors.
So....this morning, I got busy and made a few changes in the dining room and sun room. Here are a few shots of the changes.
First, the dining room......
I removed the runner made from drop cloth fabric and burlap ribbon.
This runner is a piece of fabric that I found at my favorite consignment shop.
I brought out the little "Spring" box that I bought last year.
Here's my favorite bird house. I re-painted it last year, adding the pink and green.
Then I brought out the little rabbit, cloche, and the green bird. The plant is a spider plant. A co-worker gave me a cutting off hers. Can't wait until it gets larger.
This tablecloth was bought at a thrift shop last year.
The rabbit family was bought at the consignment sale my daughter had a while back.
I painted this plate stand with ORB. It was an ugly gray color.
Don't you feel better when things are lighter and brighter?
One other reason I want Spring to hurry.......six weeks until my retirement!!
I'll be partying with Donna at Funky Junk Interiors,
Oh your spring vignette's are beautiful! Love the birdhouse and bunny!

I am ready for spring decor too. Lighter and brighter.
ReplyDeletePastel colors are my favorite, so I really enjoyed this post. It's still a bit early to think spring where I live, but soon enough it will be time to plan. My favorite picture is the one with the tuilip table covering. Love your cloche with the rose figurines. I may have to steal that idea! Your newly painted green and pink birdhouse is done in my favorite colors too. Thank you for sharing your post at the Your Cozy Home Party this week!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful spring vignettes. I especially love the birdhouse , bunny and bird. I bought the same green bird in Michael's???
