Spring Mantlescape

Spring has finally sprung here in the Northeast and I couldn't be happier!

This past weekend was gorgeous and I took full advantage of the opportunity to spend time outside collecting loose moss, moss-covered rocks, leafing branches and brown "pokey balls" as I like to call them (if anyone knows what they really are, please let me know).

Back at the house I arranged them with some other things I already had to bring a touch of spring to the mantle.

My sister sent me this white cabinet for Christmas and I LOVE it!

This cute little bunny and the wire dress form I picked up a year or two ago at the Christmas Tree Shops. No money in the budget this year for decor items, so it was fun shopping the house and the abundant natural decorating supplies God so richly blessed us with outside. Hopefully the moss will stay fresh for awhile, if not, there's plenty more where it came from!

Happy Spring!

I'm linking this up to Kimba's DIY day. Hop over here to check out more projects.

Spring has FINALLY Arrived!!

Yesterday as I was walking out the door for work I let out a squeal of delight when I saw this waiting for me at the end of the walk:

CROCUSES!!

These are some of my favorite spring flowers and it took everything in me to hang on to the tray of brownies in my hand and place them safely in the car before grabbing my camera to take a document this momentous occassion.

Aahhh. Spring. It's nice to see you again.
