Springtime Crafts to Spark your Interest

Welcome to SPRING! 

What's better than to start of this happy season with some color and fresh plants? 
Here are a few ideas from Houzz to spruce up your home and make it more spring-like!

1. Spice up last years pots with a fresh coat of paint and new design! From stripes to diamonds, your options are endless.


2. Floral cones could be your next hostess gift or party favor waiting to happen! With a little kraft paper, some paint and washi tape, you have an instant vase to show off and hand off some spring sprigs!

3. Repurpose cans as herb planters. Everyone loves the smell of fresh herbs.. why not make them look appealing as well?


4. String up strands of bulb lights in your back yard for extra added ambiance!

Now get to work for Spring!

Spring Sprucing Tips To Ready your House for Easter

Spring is here and don't forget to clean out all the focal points of your home to make room to breathe and space for a few new pops!

Here are a few tips we've picked up from Houzz for a stunning Spring spruce.

Entryway:
- clear out winter boots or coats
- add hooks for organizing belongings

Kitchen:
- move most used items to front and center drawers
- still have dishes from friends that you haven't returned ... make a pile to return!

Laundry Room:
- add a triple sorter laundry bin
- clean out old cleaning products, and throw away unused items

Bedroom:
- remove old coffee cups and stacks of papers
- take a peek under the bed

Bathroom:
- clean out old medications and move them to a different place as the humidity can be damaging 
- organize cupboards in clean sorted baskets

Spring at LAST. Outlast the year with Pastels

This spring, bring a few pastels in your space to spruce it up!!

Pastels are not a thing of the past! Mix them with some sharp lines, and fun patterns for a 21st century look on the soft color trends.




Whether in furniture or accessories, 
you can mix and match these spring colors with ease.
They remind us of the Easter themed M&M's that we love so much. 
The bright colors just make everyone think they taste better!! So therefore, your design taste shall be tastier too with new pastels.

 We love these pastel pieces that can play a huge role in your space. 
- adding a vase of colored spoons on your countertop can bring the pop you are looking for
- changing the legs on a bench is a fun and unexpected way to bring a pastel color in that we love!

Are you ready to jump on the pastel wagon this SPRING?


HOW TO: Get organized and STAY organized



The blog world is buzzing with tons of organization ideas, yet implementing is another story in my case.

Get organized but keep reading to learn-

HOW TO...Keep Organized
It's a new year, full of new ideas and most of all...resolutions!
How about organization?? Is that one of your resolutions?!

Check out these ideas BHG put out for those like us that love to organize!

1. Separate with Stylish Items
How many stacks of napkins, fabric, or papers do you have that need to be sorted? Go to your nearest office supply store and find a cute clamp for all your organizational needs ;)


2. Visable Storage
If you can see it...FIX IT! Take a trip to Target...buy some clear crates and get to sorting.
You'll be happy you did... I was:)




3. Stand up Straight
Everything looks more organized when it is neatly stacked. Use two pieces of fabric and some beans insert to make a make-shift book end!




4. Ledge Logic
Why not make use of the side of that wall shelf?? A running calendar awaits you.




5. Handle Space
I don't know about your house, but items like scarfs, ties and belts get quickly tangled and thrown on the floor around here! Find a favorite handle at Home Depot for an easy storage solution!


Happy Spring Cleaning!!

Bring out the Spring Design

With last weekend being beautiful and sunny, we got a whiff of Springtime here in Texas! 
Of course, Texas proved to be Texas yesterday as it was rainy and cold....

But in order to lift our spirits and remind us of Springtime again, we leave you with a few tips on freshening your household for Spring!

1. Freshen up your color scheme!
This we can help you with... give us a call to turn your color box upside-down!

2. Indoor Plants .. bring the GREEN inside:
Whether a modern faux plant, or a succulent, bringing the outdoors - in is always a good idea.

3. Brighten your space with new and unique lighting:
Lighting is the backbone of a home, and switching out a few fixtures might be just what your home needs this spring.

Spring and Easter Tablescape Ideas

As the sun is starting to shine more often and the temps continue to rise ... 
spring is definitely in the air!

We found a few of our favorite colorful and happy centerpieces and table decor ideas from around the web ... take a look and take note if you are hosting a family luncheon this Easter Sunday!

1. The rustic, natural look: Bringing a woodsy feel to your table gives it a sense of comfort and ease. Toping it off with fresh flower and easter eggs bring it to a festive spirit.


2. Clean, simple and homemade: Something hand crafted is always special to the 
heart and beautiful on the table.


3. Shapes and characters: Why not add a bunny shaped napkin fold to your plate decor?!


4. An unusual but familiar icon: Instead of using the usual bunny rabbit, go with a fun 
and new icon... a spring bird!


5. Bright and Airy: Branches and pastels are always a positive point in spring and bringing that together with fresh springs and white ceramics is a stunning combo.


Happy Spring and good luck in table decorating this week ! ;)
