Spring Patio Update {Mohawk Rug Giveaway}

The sun is finally shining,

the temps are warming up, so it's time to spiff up the patio.

The whimsy of spring and Easter is fun to add

to a vignette or any space.

How to Build a Tablescape

While I was putting together my Spring tablescape, 

I thought I'd take some photos along the way, to show you

 how I build a simple tablescape design.

{Easter Tree} & Devotional

The Lenten season has begun and I find that it's a beautiful

time to prepare our hearts for Easter.

Bring on {Spring Mantle} & Linky Party

Hurry Spring!

Now that the calendar tells us that it is March,

I'm bringing out the Spring decor. 

I don't know about you, but I need some GREEN around here to bring a little springtime cheer.

{Succulent} Inspiration Ideas

Have you heard? Succulents are all the rage! 

Why, you may ask...

I think it's because they don't require much attention.
In other words, it's difficult to kill them!
(that's good news for those of us who don't have a green thumb)

6 Easter decor ideas

Celebrating Easter has always been important for me and my family!

When the kids were little, I wanted to instill in them the true meaning

of Easter, and not get lost in bunnies and eggs.

I thought I'd compile the posts from last year

 that I did to celebrate Easter at our house.

{Moss Cross} DIY Spring Vignette

When I think of Spring, I think green!

Since I don't have much of a green thumb, 

moss is my friend!

"If I Had a Green Thumb" Flower Baskets

If I had a green thumb, these are some of the flowers I would have growing in my flower garden.  I love bulbs, like Hyacinth, Tulips, and Daffodils.  For some reason, I'm always too late...you have to plan ahead for those type flowers!

I live in South Texas, so some of these flowers just don't survive our summer climate, or our soil. One example...hydrangeas.  Not sure Forsythia's grow here either.  And Dogwood...nope!  Never seen one here!

I wanted a "French Flower Basket" look for my spring door decor.  Since I don't have a garden, I'll pretend I went to the fresh flower market (called Michael's) and grabbed these beauties up.  

Then, just haphazardly arranged them in these wicker baskets, with look...a little moss growing on them!  I know you're surprised, coming from me.  

(I'll moss anything!)

HAPPY SPRING!
