It's no secret that I love Spring.
The past two years (wow, I am coming up on two years blaaahging!) I have heralded its arrival with 10 choirs of angels. Maybe not explicitly, but it was pretty clear in my posts that I was happy to see the season arrive.
There are a few things I do to keep things fresh and happy around here when the days aren't so "fresh and happy" outside.
Next I try to keep surfaces cleared. Notice I say "cleared" and not "clean."
I hate seeing junk on counters, vanities, etc. It needs to find it's home or get put in a pile that I will take care of later be dealt with. I'm not always good at this one but I am actively striving to do better with organization.
Here are some examples of how I try to keep it "Springy" up in this joint:
Sheer curtains in the bedroom allowing for lots of natural light.
Tasty and pretty citrus fruit in the dining room/ middle of the house.
Plants (I can't kill) tucked away on bookshelves...
and in the kitchen.
Have friends over...
as much as possible.
Enjoy a perk of the current season.
And in between all the cleaning and organizing...

I too await Spring with anticipation...not a big fan of gray and long, dark nights! Seems once January is behind us, then we are headed toward Spring much faster :)
Alesia, what day is your birthday this month?
Your house does look so fresh and so clean clean! I seriously started singing "Ain't nobody dope as me" when I read your title so this post brought a smile to my face in more than one way. HAHA! I must steal some of these tips because winter always seems so drab and boring to me - but you make it look great!
