Making your home cozy during February!


Are you ready for SPRING? These recent days with the sunshine really have me thinking of being outside and working in the yard. It isn’t too early to start your spring planning now. If you planted those bulbs back in the late fall you are lucky to soon have a burst of color in your yard. Some of my favorites are tulips, forsythia and daffodils. I love daffodils and hate that they don’t last long enough. To me they are a burst of sunshine! Years ago when visiting my grandparents I would walk down to the local market and along the way I would sneak and pick one of the neighbor’s daffodils. I think from that spring on these have been my favorite. If you do have some of these flowers blooming soon make sure to pick a few and put them in every room of your house. It will brighten anyone’s mood. If you don’t have these flowers to put a pop color in your home Wal Mart and the Fresh Market already have tulips for a very reasonable price, if not use fruit. If you have a special bowl take it out and just keep oranges, apples and pomegranates in it for a fresh look. If you need to liven up that mantle, keep white or cream colored candles on it.
Keep your home warm and cozy for February and start planning your spring chores, planting and decorating ideas for spring.
