Hello Spring

Yesterday was a beautiful day here in the Pacific Northwest!  It wasn't especially sunny, but the temperature got up to 60 degrees!  I took the girls on a walk to the park and they had so much fun!  It was so nice to get outside again!

I got inspired to set up a little springy decor in the dining room.  I decided I liked the feathers from Camille's birthday party, so I kept them up and added real ones to the apothecary jar along with some moss.  I adore chalkboard art; I'll still be making it when everyone else has moved on. :)

Typically we see mostly rain in the spring, but I'm loving these dry days! Linking up to...

Spring Wreath

64 degrees and sunny!  That's the weather today for my area of the Pacific Northwest!  The day we left for Disneyland a week ago, it was snowing!  A little sunshine and warmish temps have definitely put me in the mood for spring.

What's more springy than bright yellow and birdies??  I threw this wreath together in about half an hour.  The base is a pool noodle that I bought for under $2 and taped together to form a circle using painter's tape (I couldn't find anything else!).  The fabric was formerly a shower curtain from Target that I actually bought at Goodwill for $5.  I cut strips off the bottom of the shower curtain, and there is still plenty of fabric left for other projects!  I drew the birds onto navy blue cardstock and cut them out.  Our front porch area is completely covered, so the wreath won't really be exposed to the elements. 

I really love the yellow and navy. That color combo might need to show up somewhere INside my house!
