Happy Spring! This is my favorite time of the year and also my favorite time to see what’s in store! Spring is the best time to capture the bright hues and essence of the flowers blooming (or on the cusp of blooming)! The weather is still teetering on warmer temperatures and we’re desperate to toss off/hide away our dreary winter garb for the refreshing colors of spring!
See below for what has inspired me thus far in 2014!

Welcome to 2011 – the land of over-scheduled, underpaid, technology-addicted persons racing through life whilst forgetting what it is we are moving towards. To quote Ferris Bueller “Life moves pretty fast. If you don’t stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.”
classic and original – love those Brits!
It’s no wonder then that the British goverment’s posters, produced in 1939 to alleviate stress from the impending war, have been reinvented as the latest decorating craze. With it’s simple yet effective motto and signature crown, the posters have been popping up everywhere in dozens of bright colors and unexpected creations.
For me, the poster’s bold color balances it’s somber message and reading the phrase instantly provides a reassuring hand as I push through my never ending to do list. Feel free to share your own personal motto or mantra for perseverance!
this is pretty popular in nursery rooms!i have a few friends who could use these!and some mommies who would want this, too!love the more natural version!what a way to come home…how does this not make you happy?great way to start the day!
I am so excited for all the amazing color coming out in fashion and furniture stores! Yellow is such an optimistic color, you can’t help but smile when wearing it or seeing it as an accent piece in your home. It is also a very vital reminder that warm weather is almost here!
