Spring Is Just Around the Corner

Spring really is right around the corner, right?

(I ask this question as snow falls outside the windows and the temperature is c-c-c-old.)


Ever hopeful for spring's arrival, I've been adding some decorating touches of spring around the house.


First of all, one of my sisters made this lovely starched "doily" hat too many years ago for me to count.

I found it when I went upstairs to the attic "storage" area. Had hung it on a pegboard. 

It's the prettiest little thing so down it came. Now it hangs next to a heart she made.

One year I found this saucy little number.  It looked kind of like fat jelly beans on  grapevines and I loved the look of it right away.

It's colorful and charming.  I put that baby outside on the front porch wall.


Adding a zap of color is this cheerful red glass birdie. Isn't he the cutest? 

 He was a Christmas gift from a sister and I just love him. It's like having a pseudo cardinal on the kitchen windowsill.

On the front door, down came the Valentine wreath, replaced by a springy pink one. It's so pretty with the pink ribbon blowing in the breeze!

Mr. Sunshine?  Please melt every flake of snow that is mucking up the sidewalks and driveways.

Come on down the track, spring. We are ready for you!
