Spring has sprung (almost)!


With the official start of spring less than a month away we're all aching for longer days and warmer weather. We find ourselves daydreaming of being outside without having to first grab a warm coat, gloves, hat, scarf, and whatever else we use to keep warm. Days when we can turn off the heat and open the windows allowing the fresh air in. I urge you to hang in there, for spring is just around the corner.
To create the illusion of spring in the middle of winter, I like to adorn my home with springlike things. Pots of forced bulbs, vases full of tulips or daffodils, floral scented candles. With all this around me, all I have to do is close my eyes and I can almost feel the warm breeze.
