Spring Themed Shelf Decor

Warm, sunny days enjoying the hours. Sights and scents of fresh blooming flowers. Green grass growing and green leaves on the trees. Opening up all the windows and enjoying the fresh breeze. The sounds of birds singing, the buzzing of bees. Oh yes, it must be Spring!!!

Well, March has gone by very quickly!  It's Spring for certain now, we are feeling it and seeing it everywhere outdoors.  I am in Spring mode indoors, too.  I added a little "Spring" to my shelf. 

I always enjoy restyling this shelf.  It's fun and easy to change the look, and today it's "Spring!  I may fuss with it and change it again, that's what I like about it and why I asked the Hubby install if for me.

I was ready to give my shelf a Spring touch and did so thanks to a few things I already had (the planter, tray, basket and colored Easter eggs), and a few new "Spring sale" goodies from Hobby Lobby (the sweet little bunny, the ceramic decorative egg, and the small urns). 

I found this sweet photo frame at the thrift store.  I thought it was perfect for Spring. I used a piece of card stock for inside the frame that I simply wrote the word "Spring" on and embellished the dot over the "i" with a flower!  Easy, inexpensive, and quick home decor! That's my favorite kind!  

I'm so happy it's Spring!

Have a great Spring day!

Diaper Cake ~Make a Cake using diapers~

We recently had a Baby Shower for my daughter.  I shared a post about the event and the fun ideas for decorations and activities.  I created a Diaper Cake for the Shower and as a gift for the Mom-to-be.  I'm both pleased and proud of how it turned out!  I viewed several ideas for making diaper cakes and put together a plan for making one.  It was very easy and didn't take very long to make it.

This is an easy and fun gift to give a Mom-to-be, and it can also be used as decoration for a Baby Shower!

Spring is here! More "Spring" decor

Happy Spring!!!

I long for Spring, the beauty it provides, and the promise of new beginnings.  It's a beautiful season! I always wish Spring, and Summer too, could last twice as long!

Yay for more Spring decorating!  Now that it's officially Spring, I'm happily saying "Buh-bye to winter!"

I love when the days are longer and lighter!  It's so nice to decorate for Spring, I'm having fun bringing out some of the Spring decor.  Lightening things up around here now.  

What a beautiful Monday and Spring day we had today!

Happy SPRING!...

A Shower for Mom-to-be and Baby ~Baby Shower Ideas~

Our youngest daughter is expecting a baby girl in May.  We are all so excited! This is her and her husband's first child, our third grandchild.  It's a girl!!!  Our third granddaughter.  I can't wait to welcome another little "Miss" into our family!

We had a Shower for the Mom-to-be and Baby.  What fun it was to help host this event along with other family members.  The beautiful Mom-to-be is glowing, as she grows closer to the day her little bundle of joy will arrive.  The Baby Shower was a fun gathering with friends and family, with some good food, games, and activities.  The decorations were "It's a girl" theme with lots of pink.  The Mom-to-be is even more prepared after receiving many great baby gifts from friends and family.

 All set up and ready for the Baby Shower!

It was a fun time preparing for the Baby Shower! Enjoy more photos of the event below!...

Spring-ing Forward ~Adding a touch of "Spring" to our decor~

~I don't see it as losing an hour I see it as gaining a Spring!~ 

Closer to "Spring" now that we've done our Spring-forward-an-hour, if only the weather could get on with it also?  Many saw cooler to extremely cold temps this past weekend, some even got snow!

Even though it hasn't felt like Spring outside over the past few days, I gave our mantel a touch of Spring by changing out the mirror and adding my new wreath and plants from Hobby Lobby! Gotta love those half-off Spring sales!  I do, I do!

I took a quick shot of what a few minutes attention resulted.  I do think those pots are about to get a makeover with some paint!

Also did a touch of Spring in our breakfast area, too!  Added some green to the breakfast table after I spotted this sweet plant in the bronze pot, and a matching bowl to now make a set of two...I love Hobby Lobby!...and 40% off coupons!

I simply placed a couple of glass candle holders into the bowls, added bronze candles, and called this C.U.T.E!

Green-ing things up for March! My chalkboard got a new look a few days ago. I'm hoping March brings much luck!!!

Green is one of my favorite colors.  I long for the green to reappear with all the other colors of Spring!

I love my beautiful Chalkboard, I kind of pretend I'm an artist and challenge myself to put something fun, or interesting, or pretty on it, often changing it with the seasons, holidays, or special occasions. It's one of those "I just had to have it items" that I couldn't pass up!

I enjoy using chalkboards to decorate my home, they're easy to change and also easy to make.  I have a few I've made from old photo frames and mirrors.  Fun, easy, decor items that are inexpensive and customizable too!

I'm always happy to see these beautiful red buds on this beautiful old tree in our back yard! This tree says Spring has arrived!!!

Although it was a little chilly on Saturday, I enjoyed a coffee morning out on our back porch soaking up this beautiful morning view!  

It's green-ing up outside and inside too, I'm ready to begin a new season!  Come on SPRING!

Spring is almost here!...

Welcome March ~My "Spring" hall table decor~

Hello March.  Welcome!  I've been anxiously waiting for you.

Getting ready for Spring here, with March arriving!! I did a little 'shopping my home' for some restyling of our hall table!  A quick fix to brighten things up, keep it simple, and move beyond winter officially, indoors anyway!!  White tulips, a bit of greenery, and touches of gold!

I made the gold wreath long ago.  Some of the items here are thrifty treasures found on the cheap.  The shutter, flower plaque and plate holder, gold vase and candlestick.  The gold lidded basket, on the bottom right, I've had for many years, I painted it gold a couple years ago.  The sweet little iron chair got a white paint change after I bought it, it was orange originally.  Those beautiful white tulips are faux, but they're fabulous.  I love to shop my home before I look for any new goodies to decorate with.  I'm sure there will be changes to come, I'm off to catch some Spring fever via Spring sales, today!

Oh, and I think someone else is ready for Spring, and likes to get in on the photo action, always!  Just as I was ready to take a photo here he came to plop down in the middle of my shot.  Gotta love him anyway, and I do!

By the way...We brought this sweet boy home 4 years ago today!! He's our gentle giant, huge puppy, big lovin', major sweetheart, true companion, very handsome and totally spoiled rotten Golden!!
~Aeon the golden prince!~

I'm so happy it's March!...
