Once the calendar flips over to March, my mind begins to think in terms of spring. Green tips of spring flowers can be seen starting to peek through the dirt and it seems that the sun begins to treat us to sunnier days! The urge to get outside and walk begins to frequent my thoughts more often and I get the urge to put away winter and bring out spring.
Brightly colored drinking glasses, mugs, and table linens will shoo away the dreariness of winter and coax the sunshine into your home. Adding touches of vases with bright grocery store flowers will whisper spring. Pick mugs, vases, or napkins in bright colors. Adding a few lighter colors to your decor and table will definitely freshen and brighten things up ~ a much needed change from the winter months.
This is also the time to bring out some of your Easter decor. Bunnies are so popular now that they can be left out throughout the year, depending on how much "Happy Easter" they say. I am always on the lookout for bunnies that can be used during the year but also used during Easter ~ this helps to cut down on the work of redecorating after Easter is over.
So bring spring indoors to areas that you will see and pass often during the day, and you will begin to feel the new season, welcome warmer days, sunnier walks, and the freshness of new beginnings!
