Sat Nite Special link party #129 - spring decorating!




Welcome to Saturday Nite Special #129, the multi themed DIY link party! 

* Home Decor / Gardening
 * Crafts, / Sewing / Recipes / Printables / Blog tips
* Theme of the week

Every Fri 7pm  to Sunday 11 pm Pacific.


This post is truncated for quicker loading. Please click below / left to continue.





It's spring! And my favourite way to decorate for spring is to simply bring the outdoors in.


kitchen windows HERE

Any kitchen window sill is instantly perked up with a plant, even if it is stabbed with a cement trowel for a little extra quirk. :)



bedroom HERE

Most recently, my bedroom got hit with pretty blooms that create sunshine in any weather.


And then my fireplace mantel got all dressed up with a fuss free strategy... faux greens that never wilt.

The tiniest spring like touches can truly have your home celebrating the season in a big way.

Have you decked out your home for spring?
Bring it on in this weekend's 3rd themed linkup!


Next week:

April 20 - repurposed furniture
April 27 - Picture Perfect full room reveals and voting poll
May 4 - porches, patios outdoor living spaces

    Your spring blooms are so pretty. I never would have guessed the greens on your mantel aren't real, they're so natural looking. Thanks for the spring inspiration and for hosting.

    Okay, your faux foliage looks so not faux ...

    And I've been determined to rid my house of the faux foliage and you go on and throw a wrench in that plan ...

    Thanks so much for hosting this party. Oh, and I just loved the set you created for the music video. So ethereal ...

    :)

    Donna - Thank you for the party! I'm back with more funky junk, a storage crate I made out of a pallet to house our canned goods. Every small space needs some funky storage made out of junk, right?!? :)
