Adding Greens

Adding some greens helps to soften 

and bring in warmth to a space.

 

a splash here

and there.

  

So looking forward to warmer spring weather
when the grass is green, the leaves on the trees
 start to bud and I can sit on my patio for my morning cup
of coffee and listen to the birds singing in the trees,and
enjoy the outdoors again.

love and blessing!

So BIG and COMFY!!

and I think so inviting,

 So much can be done 

with a neutral palette.

some may say I'm boring.

I say this allows me to be creative.

 Add color according to the seasons. 

Throws and pillows

Storage

Storage in the bathroom.

 finding these glass containers

and putting them to use in the bathroom.

My husband does not have to ask where are the cotton balls

 or the bath salts, lol which he never uses

(found the little white cup at a local thrift store)

it was perfect for this

how about the q-tips

towels and wash rags

keeping everything in the open keeps me organized 

and allows him to find things. (most of the time)

love and blessings,

Vintage Hankies

Adding some spring to this dreary day

  

 before

  

adding

old  vintage  hankies, 

wooden clothes pins

 and twine

 and adding some spring colors to my windows

  

so fun and cheery,

  light and airy,

 so simple.

Oh what awaits me

but 3 white shirts

yes, just waiting to be ironed.

A much dreaded chore for me.

 but after its done WOW!

such a good feeling,

until I wear it again and the process

starts all over.

love and blessing,

Quotes

 Trying to find some thing for a friend for her 

Birthday I came up with this idea,

 Why not make something she can use every day

 for a whole year( till her next birthday)

 I started collecting quotes and typing them into my documents on 

the computer till I had collected 365.

 I then printed them off

and with my cutter cut them all apart

folded each one up and put them in a jar

 closed it up and added a piece of twine and a tag 

simple but time consuming ,

But she is wroth ever minute I put into it.

 I hope you will enjoy pulling an inspirational quote from the jar every day

 for the next year!

Happy Birthday Friend!!
