A Splash of Spring

This year I'm bringing Spring indoors! I have grown tiresome of all the rich dark colors that flow throughout our home. Can anyone say, depressing? Don't get me wrong, I love dark rich colors when it's 40 degrees outside. When I can curl up in my Dara & Co. blanket and sip on some hot tea. But, I find it extremely hard to enjoy spring days when our home still showcases fall and winter decor. This year I'm changing that. My life needs color and LOTS of it! I mean, who doesn't love a splash of color?!
My colors of choice are blues, greens and yellows. I have added accents in these colors throughout the house. The first area to take a splash of spring was my bedroom. I love jumping into a bed that feels very welcoming no matter the season, so it felt right to start here.

The bed feels fresh and welcoming of an afternoon siesta. Yeah Right! Who am I kidding, not with a three and a one year old.

Next is this accent piece of a staircase. I found this piece while in Las Vegas this past month at Bellagio's Giardini Garden Store, which of courses sells garden inspired decor. I found the cute spring gift boxes there too. The staircase sits on a chest of drawers and brings the feel of fresh garden flowers indoors. Freshening.
Next up is this yellow planter.

This is my favorite! Mainly because I found this in the discount corner at Pottery Barn. It's calming, colorful, fresh and simple. It sits in a corner of the bedroom. I think this really brings the outdoors, indoors. Looking at this picture confirms my desire in ripping out this carpet and replacing with a nice wooden floor. A project in the making :)
Moving on to the entry way. No big change here, just filled my glass hurricanes with spring fill.

The last area to receive a little splash of spring was the kitchen. I simply added green bushes above several cabinets.

My favorite accent piece in the kitchen is this blue, greenish, yellow platter.

I also picked this piece up at Giardini. It's unique in the fact that its handcrafted and imported from Italy. I hope this is an item that one of my daughters will cherish and showcase in their home years after I'm long gone. It truly is beautiful piece.
I am currently working on a spring wreath and a few other pieces so anticipate a following post. I hope everyone enjoys Spring as much as we do around here!
