Bringing spring around the house doesn't have to break the bank or be complicated. Here are some ideas to get you going:


* Egg wreaths are classic! This is a quail wreath from a shop I ordered years ago, I haven't seen one again like it but you can buy quail eggs on Etsy and egg wreaths are everywhere.



















* Bunny Plates! I shared my obsession with bunny plates last year. I've seen some on Amazon that are more like the price I paid for the Pottery Barn ones, but keep your eyes open at Burlington Coat Factory, TJ Maxx, etc. for the $5.99 ones! They are so great to stick some greenery on




















or use one to hold a nest to bring some instant spring cheer inside:























* Make a chalkboard sign or hang a light wood banner. This one was from the Target dollar spot a few seasons ago. A light burlap banner is also spring-y to me







































*Put your letterboard to good use:


























* Pink cake plates are always a good idea! Hearth & Hand is killing it this season with their pink milkglass collection ♥























* Bunny pillows and greens (and another egg wreath) They had these adorable bunny pillows at Kirkland's this year. I also love putting some greenery in a white basket.




























If you need solid color pillows, H&M Home is my favorite for $5.99 pillow covers! (I only have one bunny pillow but I thought the pink one looked lonely so I moved it over for the picture)

























* The greens I can't stop talking about (Israeli ruscus -- look for it in your grocery store in a green bunch) are still going strong (3 weeks!) I think fresh greens instantly bring fresh in.









































*in the kitchen: cutting boards, white pitchers, and green stems (these are still my favorite!)

Happy Weekend, everyone!

Hello! We've had some exciting times as we've been anticipating my daughter's call to serve a mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. When young men and young women choose to serve, they meet with their church leaders, fill out all of the paperwork and medical/dental forms and wait. They could be sent to any one of 407 missions worldwide! Her call came via email yesterday morning just after 9 a.m. and it was torture to wait all day to open it with family. She could have clicked on the link and viewed the letter by herself but I was so proud that she waited! She is going to the Florida, Ft. Lauderdale Spanish speaking mission and will go to the missionary training center in Mexico City in June. She will serve for 18 months. We are so thrilled for her! It's so nice to have a place and a date to start preparations.

























We woke up this morning to more snow (bleaaahhhh). We had a few days of spring-like weather (well for us, 50 degrees) and on Monday night I think every family in our neighborhood was out in their yards or out walking with sunset an hour later. I am buying up flower seeds and bulbs everywhere and am ready for warmth but feel like the snow just punched us in the gut. To be fair, it technically is still winter but this one has felt especially long.

I am planning to start growing wheat grass for spring/Easter -- Easter is on April 21 this year, so April 8 is my date. Of course you could begin now and just keep cutting it (or let it be wild) I *love* the smell of cutting it inside, it will make you crave summer though.

I've seen some super cute containers in stores that would be perfect for wheat grass for spring and Easter celebrations:

* Oblong wood tray  $7.19



























* Woven Pot on Black Stand $15.59 (with 40% off coupon)





































* this set of 2 wood trays $7.19!

































* Metal Bucket Trio $20
























* 24" Wood Box only $12













Have a wonderful day!
