I have been doing some spring cleaning this week and wanted to update our Fireplace mantle. Keeping in mind to use what is in my hand, I moved a few things around and brought out spring items. The backdrop for the mantel is an old window which I have painted in pinks of course. The wood trim is a pretty spring green color. Old windows are a great source to use in decorating with a vintage look. One can even find them discarded at times.
During a recent trip to one of my favorite thrift stores, I found the sweet-pea flowers in a shabby creamy white container for next to nothing! It makes a great focal point for the center of the window. Next was added spring flowers on both ends. A strand of silicone lights was added and then a strand of Ivy. My sweet bunny found a place on top of an old make-do cabinet.
I also found this sweet little quilt for the grand childrens red rocker. Spring is coming, at least to the inside of our home.
Hope your are enjoying renewing your home for Spring and using what is in your hand!
