I'm pretty sure the minute I get this house how I like it, we'll move. It's still fun though!Jennifer @ Belclaire House https://www.blogger.com/profile/09958706492584850321noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5210558362945352459.post-21271370487377580772012-02-21T18:34:32.597-08:002012-02-21T18:34:32.597-08:00I have spring fever too.

Nothing like opening up those windows and seeing things sprout for the first time.....I love spring cleaning. Even if a new sofas not in the cards, you can still freshen things up, by adding a fresh pillow or two, fresh flowers, a few new books on your table,etc...amazing how even a few new objects or a little bit of nature can make things feel so fresh and new.The enchanted homehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03417949320717832732noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5210558362945352459.post-17193426089877274762012-02-21T17:39:15.289-08:002012-02-21T17:39:15.289-08:00I've had Spring Fever since Christmas and have...I've had Spring Fever since Christmas and have been cleaning, organizing and decluttering!!

And then, when I tried to pare it down, I missed the STUFF. My answer? Spring cleaning!<br />UGH! Okay, not fun but certainly necessary. First the house and then the garden.

Maybe it is over-visualizing, pinteresting happily along until I realize that I'm looking at my home with a too critical eye and wanting to change this and that, editing more and more.

I love lightening up in the Spring and went shopping today to see what is out there that I want to use. I have some plans and will go back next Tues. because the palce where I used to work puts everything on sale for "early birds" on Tues. mornings. Have a great week, KS.

I think not knowing is worse than finding out you can't afford something. When I get prices/estimates I always feel much better. And that process starts with a list. I think we're all victims of a little spring fever. The beauty and inspiration on Pinterest is wonderful but it can make you a bit discontented. (Is that a word? Well...you know what I mean.) Have fun with the list and good luck!Ann from On Sutton Placehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11666228517388939913noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5210558362945352459.post-68264507724872753782012-02-21T10:57:32.211-08:002012-02-21T10:57:32.211-08:00I've had spring fever all winter...because it ...I've had spring fever all winter...because it has really been the winter that wasn't. Oh we have had a few days of snow and bitter cold, but many more have been almost warm. I loved it.

It is so hard to leave the lushness of the South and come back to a snowy day. I am going to be editing each room this Spring, too. We are planning on selling this year (hopefully) so I need to do that. And I also need to give our front beds a good cleaning out and sprucing up. We can't plant outside here until after Memorial Day. That is just SAD! xo DianaNanaDianahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14298962791700019785noreply@blogger.com
