{welcome spring!}

March 1st! Ahhh....the thought that spring is right around the corner puts me in *such* a good mood. I got up this morning, had a bowl of cereal, and went right into putting out my Easter decorations. I've been told our house is Easter colors, so this is the season that matches our decor best. :) I made this wreath a few years ago, but added the eggs this year...
My Mom gave me a bunch of great vintage looking Easter bunnies...I think this one is my favorite...



Mom also gave me my Easter tree and decorations. What would I do without her? :)



I also finished a small project this morning that I have been wanting to do for awhile. Personalized glass jars for our coffee (I'm decaf and hubby is regular)...




After finishing these projects, I made a Starbucks run for a vanilla latte, then worked on my topiaries for the porch. I made them last year, but the hubby accidentally knocked them over this winter and broke two of the pots. I bought new pots at Hobby Lobby and got them reassembled. This is what they looked like last year...

Now the pots are plain terra cotta because I don't have the energy to faux finish them again. I still think they look pretty darn cute. :)
Other weekend projects...
Make a Goodwill run
Buy our microwave for over the stove
Go shopping for some new glasses frames...I'm thinking of some brown ones for a change
Clean the downstairs hardwood floors
Do some scrapbooking
Hope everyone is having a great weekend! It is supposed to be 50 degrees here today! WooHoo!!
