Spring Is Knocking On Our Door!

I am feeling the need.....for sunshine, blue skies and GREEN! 

  

Can you see the color of our grass?  That is not what I am wanting...I need some green!

SO....since it is St. Patrick's Day on Thursday....I am doing my best to add a little Luck 'O The Irish!

You'll notice....I've been feeling a little crafty too!  See that green and white star...it used to be brown!  I had two of them, identical, not anymore!  And no, I really don't have a green thumb, that grass is from a set of three that I got at Target several years ago, it has been great in various places in the house!  They are just enough splash of color to bring life to any room! The rabbit too....I wasn't feel the love so I grabbed the bottle of Hodge Podge, some dictionary pages and went to town!  Most of what you see in this cabinet I have had either for a long time or it is from resale!  The bird cage, that may not be black for long...when I put it back out I thought for summer it may need to be lightened up?  We'll see! 

I am working on the mantel too...just ignore the cords!  I need to come up with a creative way to cover those!  I am thinking cord covers...in burlap!  It is still kind of sparse if you've seen my mantels from the past but never fear....Soon I will be able to add branches to be forced...then we know Spring is knocking on our door!
