“Enjoying the Process”

A Quick Fix for “Spring!”

Spring is my favorite time of year!! My home’s color scheme is very spring-like all year long. Even though I have a spring-like color scheme in my home I still like to add pops of light and bright when the dreary days of winter leave.

I have found that adding color in my pillows is probably one of the least expensive, and most effective way to do that. It helps that I am also a self admitted “Pillow Addict!” That is a whole other show!!

While blog hopping the other day I ran upon a post that had some pillows from an Etsy seller that caught my eye. I thought if any of my readers are in need of a “POP” for their spring decor this would be the place to go.

They have all sizes, colors and designs for very reasonable prices. Here are just a few from Pillow-Throw-Decor………

This colorful Suzani at 18x18 is only $34

Bright yellow just sings Spring doesn’t it? You can purchase this here!

This pillow is called Berry Bright! What a perfect name and price at only $29 Here!!

This fun lime green pillow is only $19 Here

I love this hot pink Suzani and for only $19 what a great pop of color and design.

All of these fun colors and patterns just make me smile!! I hope this opens up new possibilities for Spring decor in your home!!

Easter Day

The parents are hiding the Easter eggs while Grammy and Uncle M are keeping the anxious grandkids inside. Little did we know that they were peeking through the window box window. Needless to say the egg that had just been placed in the window box was removed!!

Let The Hunting Begin!!!

Oops!! You missed the one in the gate handle!!

My youngest grandson won’t let having to  climb the fence stop him from getting this Easter egg.

My granddaughter is about to find the blue egg on the pool slide ladder.

My oldest Grandson gently picks out an egg in the ivy.

We had such a wonderful family day. As the saying goes……….

“The Party Is Over!”

The dishes are in the dishwasher. The baskets and eggs will be put away until next Easter. The centerpiece now resides on the empty dessert table………….

Just a few cupcakes and lemon bars are left out for a night time snack.

The mantel will stay dressed for Spring………….

When it is all said and done my family  knows the true meaning of Easter………….

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten son, that whosoever believeth in him shall not perish, but have everlasting life. John 3:16
