A Look Back at Spring Decor

Sometimes I like to go through my photos to see various ways I have decorated for the seasons or holidays.  Here are some photos from previous Spring decor. Maybe you will get some ideas for ways to decorate your home for spring.  It really is just around the corner.  :)  Easter is March 27th, and the first day of spring is less than a month away.  Looking through my photos also reminds me of items I may have stored away, and might want to use this year.




An easy spring craft is to buy peat pots, paint them with acrylic paint, stamp them, put a flower inside (like above).  It makes an adorable item for a vignette.

Tulips and bunnies always signify spring.

More birds, floral plates, and a succulent round out this display.

Here ball jars, an insulator, and other items make a unique vignette on this side table.


Various items can be used to elevate decor.  Here I've used a wood compote that I painted and distressed.  Above, I've used cake stands for the same reason.




I hope you have found inspiration for ways you can decorate for the spring season. Use what you have on hand in different ways.  You don't have to spend a lot of money.  In the photo above, I even used vintage hankies that belonged to my Mother.

Linens & Things

I love finding tablecloths, runners, napkins, and other linens when I am out thrifting. Whether it be at consignment shops, GW, or yard sales, I will usually snap up a pretty linen if it doesn't have a lot of stains.  I will show you some of my favorites. I found several pieces embroideried with this design at a favorite consignment shop. This blue runner (reversible to stripes), found on consignment. This is one of the nicer quality tablecloths I have found, $4.00 at a thrift store. This cloth was around $10.00 on consignment. This runner is also reversible to polka dots, and was a consignment find. This pink and white gingham is perfect in the sun room, and is a consignment find also. This is the most valuable table cloth I have found, and it was $2.00 at a nearby yard sale.  It is a vintage Wielunder.  They sell on ebay for 30 - 90 dollars.  Mine is in pristine condition! Christmas tablecloth, consignment sale.   Consignmen

Trash to Treasure

We had noticed this "jar" sitting near a trash pile, and my husband decided to see what it was.  It was full of dirt, and covered in grime.  After soaking it a while, it looked much better. The shape and color is very nice. At first I thought it might be a globe for a lamp or some type of candle holder. The bottom has an opening, and no markings. Do you know what it might be? This is how I'm using it. It's made of thick bubbled glass. Any guesses?? Know what this was in its former life?   It makes a wonderful vase for faux flowers! It's a vintage fly /wasp trap!!   Once yucky, now pretty!!!

What's in the Hutch?

Yesterday I awoke in the mood to do some "deep" cleaning.  First on my list was to dust inside the china cabinet in the dining room.  Can you believe how much dust can get into a closed cabinet.  Really, how does that happen?  My cabinet has glass shelves and they were hazy with dust.  This is a rather tedious job because I not only have china inside, I have all kinds of little "pretties" stored there too.  It's one of the first things you see upon entry into our home, so I really should do this more often.  I want show you the before, sufficeth to say, it had been a while since I had tackled this chore.  Here are some photos showing the "after". Here is a collection of vases and crystal pitchers .   These were all gifts except the smallest one in the front and the one to the right of it. China and a consignment shop cake plate.  The china was formerly my MILs. More china . This little fairy lives here with her 2 sisters. They can all be seen
