Spring Mantel




I can't tell you how happy I am that Spring has arrived.  
It has been so long since I have wanted to dive in and change things up.  So when the mood hit, I knew I had to act fast.  
I found my inspiration and I didn't deviate too much from there.  Accept, for some reason, my disply looks a little more shabby than I like.  I was lamenting all night though because Hubby and I were cleaning out the garage last Fall and threw away a cubby shelf that would have been perfect for this display. It really would have primmed it up well.  Argh, I never thought in a million years I would need it!  Never again will I throw things away.  
"Middle" already commendeerd my porcelain birds and they have been flying all over the house.
Happy Spring Everyone!

Hi Steph :) Oh how fresh and even more special that you used your own nature. Hopefully your birdy will get tired of flying around the house and settle back down in the display :)
Oh boy, I've done the same thing before with stuff I didn't think I'd need. I still have stuff that I'm hanging on to. I think we're on our way to being Spring in my neck of the woods.
Blessings,
Carol

Oh my Steph, how are you? Good to see a post from you. I've been absent from blogging for to long, far to many life events taking place but I'm slowly getting back into it and unfortunately FB has been easier to keep up with. I've thought of you often and even tried to visit your blog a while back but for some reason was unable to.
Your spring display is lovely and even though our winter has been very mild compared to other years I'm tired of the "brown" everywhere!
I hope you and your sweet family are doing well.
Hugs,
Sheila
