Lightening Up For Spring
The time has finally come – Spring! It’s been consistently over 40 here and that has me dreaming of the warm sunny days ahead and of lightening up my decor of course. This past weekend I switched out the pillows in the living room with the new covers I made and made some other changes in there too, come take a tour 🙂
These are the two fabrics I picked. A black and white floral and a green trellis, both from Joanns. My sewing machine is getting some miles on it.
I love how they compliment each other, the black is so sharp against our Creamy Mushroom walls and light tan sofas. And the green is not something I’d ever pick out, I actually don’t think I own another thing that color in our whole house. I love how fresh it is!
These windows look out to the porch and face North, so I try to get lots of pics when it’s sunny. Sneaky I know.
The black and white matches our new zebra ottoman too. I also added new covers to the side tables.
This is a textured paper I got at a local art supply store. I’ve had it forever and haven’t used it until now. I cut it to fit under the glass on top of the chevron I painted for winter.
I love the textured surface under the glass.
These textured balls are from IKEA. I hope the bowl doesn’t get pushed around with dinner plates and the remote control, which normally take up residence on the coffee table 🙂
Moving over to the window, this straw bowl was a souvenir from our honeymoon in the Bahamas.
Now, don’t blink because you are about to see all of my Easter decorations coming up in just one photo.
Just wrapped eggs. I made these during the Oscars. I needed something to do during all those commercials.
Do you change your decor for spring? Any new items in your place this season?
