Spring Mantel 2013

Hello sweet friends!

This week, we are supposedly going to be visited

by our most elusive of friends...

Spring.

(I'm almost afraid to believe it.)

It seems I am always complaining about the weather on my blog.

I do apologize.

It's just what we do around here.

Anyway,

how about I share my Spring mantel with you?

Taking down the Easter decor, my mantel was left bare,

so I Spring-ified it.

Please try to ignore that stupid ceiling fan reflection in the mirror.

Here's the left side:

 

 

I bought those paper flowers at a local Garden Shop.

Aren't they fun?

The birds came from Kirklands.

I just thought they were so cute.  

I have had the white pitchers & greenery in my stash

for a few years now.  Same for the little blue vases

from Joanns.

Here's the right side:

 

I try to pull myself out of my comfort zone,

better known as symmetry,

but it always seems to pull me back in. :)

Do you remember this bird cage?

I used it as a card holder for my niece's wedding...here.

The little nest I bought last year at Pier 1.

Happy Spring!
