Sprucing up for Spring

Spring is here but someone forgot to inform Mother Nature because when we woke up this morning we had about three inches of snow!!

I am feeling a little tired and lazy today so we are only hanging around the house on this snowy Monday.

In honor of spring I am s-l-o-w-l-y beginning to clean!

However, as I clean that area I am sprucing up the house for spring!!

Here is what I have done so far....

It wouldn't be spring without some jelly beans. This is one Easter candy that I don't mind having around because I am not really a fan of jelly beans.

This is to the right of my kitchen sink. I decided to add somethings that I love since I am always at the kitchen sink or in that area.

My Spring Candle. I am all about yellow so why wouldn't I have a lemon candle.

I also add a few drops of lavender essential oil when I feel a little stressed.

The kids planted some flowers at the Flower and Garden show last week. Since it's way to cold outside I thought I would put them on the kitchen window.

My little cabinet spruced up for spring. I put away all the darker colors.

Ballerina helped me decorate this shelf with some more jelly beans, a little birdie, and Max and Ruby. They really aren't Max and Ruby but she thinks so and that's ok with me!!!

An old vintage hat that I like to think was some lovely ladies Easter Bonnet.

I have my turquoise mason jars out with some vintage silverware.

A White Vintage dress that was my mother's when she was a baby.

The Bunnykins plate was actually mine when I was little.

The China Cabinet. I replaced all my pink depression plates with these lovely yellow china plates that were my Nana's. They were all wrapped up and I thought they should be displayed since I am all about YELLOW!!
