Spring Cleaning

(My ivory curtains are back. For now.)

The weather has really warmed up here, and after an unusually cold Texas winter, everyone is enjoying the sun again!  I’m not certain if spring has officially arrived yet, since it’s still the middle of February, but I celebrated by changing things up around the house.  I decided to switch out my bold, patterned curtains for my trusty ivory panels (at least for a few months), so we can watch the leaves turn green on the trees outside our windows.

(Shades of purple for early spring.)

I changed the pillow covers on the couch and added a few varying shades of purple, just to brighten things up for spring.  By May, I’ll be ready to move along to my summer covers.

(I updated the mantel for spring.)

I also added some greenery to the mantel, and everything feels warmer already.  I just used things I had on hand, and it took me less than an hour.  Spring or not, I’m ready!
