Spring Living

Hello friends! I hope, as always, you had a wonderful weekend.

To my friends in the northeast, hope the snow has melted and your starting to see some green around.
The buds are everywhere where I'm at and I am so excited to see the blooms soon - my truly favorite time of the year, so perfect!

Anyway, because of the blooms, and because of my baby daughter, I wanted to add more pinks into our home! Here's what I came up with that might not scare off my boys too much... I hope... ;-)


Doesn't it remind you of spring?
I mixed in greens with pink to remind me of whats outside which I love


Did you notice my 'new' lucite pink grapes? I shared this find on INSTAGRAM HERE

Brought out my West Elm malachite boxes, added some faux moss rocks (From Dollar Store) and brought out one of my round bamboo tray (left-over from a gift basket), added some flowers and my 'new' brass elephant set!

I didn't change much over the piano, but I did add the cross (Wisteria score) and my bunnies! 

Aren't they cute?


I shared this already last week.

Just love my DIY Cherry blossom branches - the jumping off point for my Spring decor this year.
You can find the link on how I did them HERE

Sitting area got some blue and white too!

Added one of my basket tray (freebie from old gift baskets) again for some more natural elements

The other side of the room - nothing much exciting here, but still ties in to the entire 'spring scheme'

Got to showcase my small CRICKET BOX COLLECTION over at our Media Center. 



There you have it, Spring Living at our home. Do you think I came close to what's outside already?

On Thursday marks the start of ORC at Calling It Home, I'm joining in, hope you can follow along there too! And if your joining, I'm excited to see what you'll be doing as well! Let's cheer each other on in completing a room we can all be proud of!

Have a Great Week!

  3. Vel, this is so lovely and spring-like!! I have never been a "pink" person, but I have become obsessed with pink tableware and just added a Pinterest board called "Pink"! I once had an much older, fashionable lady to tell me that, "pink is an old lady's friend". Love it and I guess I qualify now - lol! Apparently, it is a very young lady's friend, too. I know you are enjoying having little Sophia in your home.

  7. Vel - I was just at West Elm last night. What a coincidence: I picked up a couple of malachite boxes. Haven't styled them yet, but seeing yours on the coffee table I'm gonna put mine there as well :)
    Looking great! xoxo

  10. Beautiful pretty Vel! I love the pink and green in honor of little Sophie, perfect for the Spring season!
    Your malachite boxes are gorgeous, I adore boxes for decoration around the house.
    I always say, you have such wonderful sense of style sweet Vel and I always love it!
    Sorry I haven't been around sooner, but I made another dinner party because hubby wanted to invite some of his school friends and their wives, so we were 14 again and so I cookes and cleaned to no end! I am exhausted, but he was so happy and so was I, though.
    Have a great week.
