Fresh Cut Flowers

After spending months in the cold garage, the garden scissors came out of hibernation and made their first cuts of the season.

Forget-Me-Nots


Lilacs

It might be cliche, but I always find that fresh flowers brought in from the yard makes our home brighter and brings a smile to my face. What do you do to bring joy into your own space?

Love flowers :) I have none to cut myself, wish I did! Another silly thing I do that makes the house feel lighter is emptying the garbage cans! Silly, but true. And I am happy when I have fresh, matching dishtowels in the kitchen. Weird.

I love the lilacs in the pitcher. Any time I can open the windows makes me feel better.

the things that brighten our house the most are the touching peices of artwork drawn by lili... i will have to do a post about those soon!
