Spring has come early in New England...
So as you can imagine, my decorating urges have taken over!
Time to shake off the old and bring in the new ~
I decided to begin with the mantel in my sitting room
I love creating little vignettes
Doesn't Spring make you feel so alive and refreshed?
Here's my mantel in all her "Spring Glory"
I stenciled the little Garden Thyme sign on a vintage piece of wood~
Here's another peek of the sitting room
And this is yet another corner
As you can tell...I use every available inch of space
And this is the opposite side of the room...from here you can "peek" into my
dining room...
Now we're on to the living room
When decorating for Spring, I went back to the cottage feel since I wanted to pull in pale blues and greens that speak of warm weather.
I also stenciled the Garden Room sign on old chippy wood
Here is the other side of the living room
It was a bit chilly the day I snapped these pics as you can tell by the fire in my pellet stove
My sweet rhinestone clocks...I never get tired of these
Framed roses
Here's my dining room... Can you tell I have a penchant for clocks? Hence...
A Shabby Moment in Time....
A peek of my kitchen, although this pic is a bit dark
And here are a couple more
Since my home is up for sale, it appears this will be my last Spring here.
I've lived here for 21 years, and although it's not without sadness that I leave,
I'm looking forward to whatever comes next, and am actually excited now.
The Lord has a plan, and I'm eager to leave it all in His capable hands.
I'm hitching my Spring wagon to Faded Charm for White Wednesday.
See you there!

Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful! I am taking in each detail here, Karen. You have so many delightful vintage treasures, yummy architectural pieces and softness all around. I just know that you will be able to bring the same magical touch to your next residence and truly make it your home. I'm glad to hear you excited about the move. Speaking of excited - counting down the days until White Event!!
your home is beyond gorgeous karen! wow...merci for the tour. i am so inspired! it exudes warmth...charm and love....all things that you take with you when you leave because they come from your "heart."
How beautiful and warm your home is. I share your love of many things, but most notably, the rhinestone clocks (see my most recent post). Funny, because I love clocks and I'm always running late! Such irony...
Hugs,
