Happy Easter!
Monday, April 5th, 2010Spring is here and it brings with it beautiful colors! The grass is green and ours needs to be cut. We have one spot in our yard that is turning purple with wildflowers growing there. Spring brings warmer weather, which means that more people spend time outside, which means that Sammy has much more to see and bark at out the window. Spring also brings spring cleaning. Especially since there will be a baby shower for my cousin at my house in less than 1 week!
But back to the colors! Here are some fun colors that are around my house.
The prettiest laundry ever! Pre-washing all of my Anna Maria Horner fabrics. I have a half-yard of the Good Night palette that will hopefully become a cuddly quilt for the bed in my sewing room. Then I have three Little Folks voiles that will be a skirt, a dress, and a handbag at some point. Hopefully before the summer is over.
Then we have my bookshelf makeover! I don’t have a before photo but it was a mess – half full of books and half full of random things we just shoved in there. This is our only bookshelf at the moment and it is actually a china cabinet made by my father-in-law. I took a picture of the cabinet both open and closed because the doors cover some of the books. And, well, because I am a nerd. Everyone in blogland has been organizing their books by color so I decided to follow suit and I love it! That’s the only spring cleaning I have actually finished, but it did involve going to the basement and digging through some boxes to find enough (really more than enough as there are still boxes and boxes of books down there) books to fill the shelves.
And finally, we have some lovely little spring critters living in our backyard. The other day I saw three huge bunnies just hanging out. But they just didn’t want be caught on film.
Those bunnies can sure hop fast!
Happy Easter and Happy Spring to everyone!
