Hints of Spring



Despite that fact that it snowed today, I am feeling spring in the air! The birds sound more cheery in the morning. The snowbanks are slowly melting. I can even see a few patches of what-used-to-be-grass in the yard. But Mother Nature is much too slow for me, so I decided to take things into my own hands and bring a bit of spring indoors.



Now, I do have a bit of a confession to make. The flowers are fake. I have two excuses: first, I live in New England; second, I do not have a green thumb. I am shamed by this latter fact, but it's true. I had one great herb and vegetable garden when my oldest was still in diapers, but since then it's been all downhill. I would like to have a better relationship with plants. I do love nature. It's on my to do list.

On a happier note, I started working on a few Easter projects! Here is a sneak peek at one:



I'm still picking decoupage medium off my fingernails, but I love how these eggs are turning out! I can't wait to make more! Happy!
