Hello Mr. March! Oh, can it be YOU already? Though skies are cloudy…
…and the ground is wet, the days are getting longer and the sunshine spills into the house in the morning – just how I like it.
Soon, springtime flowers will be budding in the garden…
…and there will be plenty of roses to snip off for fresh bouquets. The sweet scent of the Double Delights will soon perfume my rooms….
…and fill tiny vases around the house.
The birds are happy in the backyard and sing with sweet rapture as they gather berries from the trees. Such fun to watch them flit about to-and-fro from the fence to the limbs of the trees. Fluttering wings and much chattering back and forth make me wonder what they are saying to each other. Simple pleasures make the day brighter, for sure.
So welcome, Mr. March, and let the sun….
…shine in!

Beauty At Our Feet
Finding that perfect accent rug could be compared to going on an egg hunt and looking for the egg that has the big money prize inside. For me, I know in my mind what I want – color & size -but after searching many home stores and major department stores, it seems that the look for that perfect accent rug (egg) becomes futile. This morning I discovered an online website, One Kings Lane, and it seems that I found the perfect shopping destination for rugs. Please allow me to share with you some of my favorites. To link you to the page that each rug is for sale, just click on the image for your gas-free shopping pleasure.
Pretty cool, huh? I think my favorite is the Union Jack. I can vision it stretched out on top of a wood floor and on top of the rug rests an old worn leather couch with a tartan throw in shades of blue and cream and big billowy accent pillows, even one Union Jack pillow….. – or creamy white sofas with denim colored pillows. It has that wonderful down to earth feel to it.
Which rugs do you like on the website? I would love to hear!!
