I ignored the blizzard and 2 feet of snow we got yesterday and decorated our tiny fireplace mantel in anticipation of Spring. I realize I may be overly optimistic. Spring could be on strike this year. I hope I'm wrong.
Anyhow, I'm in Jamaica on a beach right now.
The only thing I'm thinking about is why my cocktail glass is empty.
I will have the bunny print soon in my Etsy store…well as soon as I get my computer repaired. {GRRRR! I curse you Apple and all your BS that you never break down!}
I will also be offering the other 2 prints on my blog for free soon.
Did you notice the dried roses in the wreath? Yeah…I took those from the garland I made and tucked them in the wreath. I am getting full use out of those puppies!

When winter lingers too long, the only salvation is delusions of spring. It was a bit of a slap in the face moving from Savannah further north and west to Nashville. Where are my 70 degree days and sunshine?! Oh, I’ve been spoiled.
I also think it’s fitting that one of your sayings reads “Spring will come, and so will happiness.” Isn’t that the mantra of every northerner right now? March hits, and everyone is desperate for spring – and more dramatically – to be happy again. haha. Those gray days get to be such a drag.
Anyways, I’ve started my spring decorating, too. I just hit up Yankee Candle for some new spring scents. Now I think it’s time to get out the Easter decor! That bun-bun print is adorable. I may have to have it. Truly. I’ll keep an eye on your shop!

I love how you reused your roses in the wreath. That is so sweet.
I love your bunny picture. I remember seeing the beginning of it in an earlier post. I am glad to see the final product! I hope your glass continues to be full! Have a beautiful vacation!

Very artistically dome mantel! Very inviting, fresh – Spring won’t have a chance to be on strike after that. Everything is pretty, but I especially love your bunny who looks as he is ready to jump out of the picture! So alive…
Have a wonderful vacation!!!

Well your mantel certainly looks springlike even if nothing else in this world does…

Enjoy your holiday, Suzanne. Your fireplace looks adorable, but cocktails are a far more pressing issue! xxx

I love that wreath! What a great idea using eggs, and tucking the dried roses into it, too. I hope you’re enjoying Jamaica, mon (as if you wouldn’t be!).
