Spring Decorating

I have a fascination for the color of green … and with all the magic it can do for your spring decorating.  With longer and brighter days around the corner, I definitely am suffering from a case of Spring Fever.  It is a malady I am happy to live with.

I recently added a few essentials to my table – a runner, green vintage dishware, and ferns from the front yard.  Instantly, my table went from dreary winter to fresh as spring.

Our weather has been so lovely lately.  I went outside and pulled a few ferns and other leaves of green.  When tossed in an antique green pitcher, they add a lovely pop of green to the table.  Green plates and glasses came next, and a few limes and avocados were placed under a glass dome for even more interest.

I retrieved my vintage green glasses and put them all on display, sitting on a narrow shelf above my window.  From Fostoria, Indiana Glass, and more … it did not matter which pattern the piece was.  If it had the texture and color I wanted, it was put proudly on display.  All mixed together, they are quite beautiful.  I especially like how rays of light penetrate through them and transform the entire room.  It looks like a fresh mix of Spring sitting in my window!

Now all I have to do is sit back and enjoy what is about to unfold – the beauty of Spring.

Soon there will be birds frolicking in my birdbath, singing sweet melodies for all to hear.  Life that has faded and withered from a cold Winter will now regenerate into an energizing force.  It’s time for renewal – and I am ready.
