Spring decorating can be so fun....

I've been doing SOME spring-like things...

but, I want to do a whole lot more.

I am knee-deep in spring projects right now...
and lovin' every minute of it...

You've seen these photos before but I need
a break from posting new stuff until I get these projects finished...

 This bright, indoor/outdoor rug has been with me since last NOVEMBER.

It's cheery SPRING/SUMMER look has carried us thru all those cold, bitter days
and kept a smile on my face thru OLD MAN WINTERTIME.

The terracotta of the walls have warmed us to no end...
when the hot summer comes along...I'll just add a few  TROPICAL  plants in this sunny room
and fall in love, all over again... 



The choice of using the LUSCIOUS  color of TURQUOISE is about as  SPRING as you can get...
well...
and it works all year round....
don't you LOVE  COLOR...!!


WHITE  WICKER....



White wicker says SPRING/SUMMER in a most delightful way... 

I changed the mantel for winter but the above look is one I will go with in the HOT SUMMER...

Haven't thought of a SPRING THEME for this vintage fireplace.

What are YOU going to put on YOUR mantel or piano or shelf or......?? 
I just LOVE changing things up so I'll hunt for cute ideas.

It doesn't bother me one bit that I used a PAPER BAG in the color I love....why NOT...??


Any doubt that THIS arrangement isn't yelling,
SPRING....SUMMER...FUN TIMES..??


As I look around with SPRINGTIME in my mind, I believe I am already well on my way to getting this 
beautiful SUMMER HOUSE ready to welcome SPRING and SUMMER with open arms.

OOO....there's lots of OTHER things I want to do around here....

I'll start putting away wintertime throws but leave a few lighter weight ones out...
air conditioning makes me cold sometimes..
I'm such a wuss !

Love you all....
XOXO bj

    Love it. That peacock lookin' bird pillow in the last photos is great! It was meant to be with that rug.
    I love your little blue birdies in the header photo. I have the same ones in green that my sister bought for me and they're one of my most favorite things.
    Happy Spring!!!

    This home is so different from the last, but I see things that make it so you all the same. Your use of beautiful, rich color for one! The rug in the dining room is so cheery, and the rich color on the walls looks great with it. I have fallen in love with the color turquoise too. It's been really fun seeing you go in a slightly different direction with this home, but still with that sweet nothings twist:>)

    BJ,
    I am so smitten with all your Aqua, dear friend!!!
    Last week was Spring Cleaning here on the Prairie.
    Like you, I washed and put away the heavy throws...
    but I left out plenty of others for cool Spring Breezes and the onset of Central Air!
    LOVE all your decorating ideas and your mantle is stunning.
    No mantle here, but I do tuck a nest or two atop the Entertainment Center.
    Fondly,
    Pat

So sorry but I have no other choice.
I love my blogging friends and most of all my family but these spam prone people are so rude and selfish have made my blogging not nearly as much fun..
