Yesterday marked the first day of Spring for this year and I could not be more excited. I am ready for warm weather, lots of sun shine, and being outdoors! Plus Spring only means we are that much closer to Summer, which is by far my favorite season. My priorities this Spring have changed from the past. I am determined to get things done around the inside of our house, take our dog on a walk around the neighborhood every night, and landscape this year! Since we have moved in (August 2014) I had all of these ideas of how I wanted to decorate our home. I never actually put any of those ideas to use because of time, money, and so on. This year I am determined to Spring clean every room in our house and add bits and pieces of decor to each room. Let the Spring projects begin! I've been in the crafty mood lately and plan to attempt a similar wreath for our front door. I'm slightly obsessed with burlap and love the look of this Spring wreath. I saw this pretty picture (above) on my Pinterest home page yesterday and I immediately thought about the pink peonies that will be blooming sometime soon in my back yard. Last year I let my mom and cousin pick a couple from my back yard to use in their home but this year I plan on making a pretty centerpiece with them for my dining room table. Yesterday Michael's had all of their white shabby chic flower vases on sale for 60% off. I bought some of the neatest vases for $4-$6 dollars. STEAL! Spring also gets me excited to sit on the front porch throughout the day and eat on our back porch in the evenings. I will always choose eating on a patio over eating indoors any time the weather is nice. We recently bought a baby gate for our back porch so while Bryan is grilling, Auggie and I can sit outside and hang out with him. I love this coral centerpiece and place mats for our outside table, now all I have to find are some matching outdoor cushions! I would love to make one of these simple outdoor bar tables for our downstairs back porch. We play corn hole right outside of our bottom porch and people always sit and hangout since it's shaded from the upstairs porch. I think this easy DIY bar table would be a perfect fit. With just two wooden pallets and 3 stepping stones for the top, you have yourself a cute little outdoor bar table!
