Spring "Clean"

Well it is finally spring - YAY!!!!! I love spring - best time of year - quite ironically the first day of spring was freezing cold but it has definately warmed up - average temperatures over the last few days are 25 degrees (mid day) - its lovely as it is not too hot that you are uncomfortable.

Spring always makes me want to re-assess my home and bring in something bright and cheery.. Out with the winter colours in with the bold colours - I am thinking of changing the look of my bedroom - I have warm winter colours at the moment - need a bit of sparkle and shine... Great time to try a new paint colour or add new artwork and photos - have fresh flowers in your room - roses or lavender next to ones bed is always nice!!!

Whilst browsing the net I came across this wonderful "Fresh Air Room" - what a wonderful idea for ones garden - it has all the comforts of an indoor room. Crisp white lattice walls pair with the wicker furniture to create a light and airy atmosphere. A whimsical sconce, an antique platter and a floral-theme print give the room a truly lived-in look!!
