Spring! Once the weather warms up and jackets are no longer required, you can find me outside with the kids just about all day long. At least that’s the goal. Everyone seems to be in a much better mood when running though the grass and lounging on the picnic blanket.
So I thought I’d share some fun items that put me in a springy mood.
- Tote bag – You can never have too many bags. You might as well have a bag that reminds you to treat yo’ self while you’re running around town.
-
Washi tape – This washi tape would be a nice addition to any spring craft or scrapbook page.
-
Child’s Swing – Kids these days. So stylish.
-
Succulent Planters – I’ve never gotten into the whole succulent craze. But maybe I should.
-
Quilt – One of our favorite things to do in the spring is hang out on a blanket in the backyard. This lovely quilt would make that even more fun.
-
Hug A Hen Shirt – Chris’s cousin owns a small farm in New York (state, not city) and they are currently selling t-shirts to raise money for a new farm store and milk house. I often wish we lived close enough to enjoy their pasture raised pork and eggs, but at least we can support them from afar by purchasing these cute shirts!
-
Mobile – This butterfly mobile is enchanting. I can’t think of a baby that wouldn’t want to gaze up at that.
-
Mama Hen Pillow – What’s more spring like than a mama hen and her chicks? This pillow could add a really lighthearted touch to your home.
-
Poppy painting – Our daughter’s name is Penelope, but we call her Poppy (that’s the closest big brother could get to saying her name.) Since having her I’ve been abnormally drawn to pictures of poppies. I love this sweet simple painting.
-
Sweet Briar Notebooks – These floral notebooks would be a fun way to keep track of all your springtime thoughts.
-
Fairy House Kit – What a ridiculously cute idea is this? My kids aren’t old enough to put this to good use, but I’m tempted to get it just for myself.
-
Garden Tools – an gardener worth her salt is needs some high priced garden tools. (Actually, she doesn’t. But wouldn’t weeding be a bit more fun with such attractive tools?)
-
Elephant Planter – I’m a sucker for elephants. This elephant planter is super cute.
-
Bird Feeder – I love seeing birds in my yard, but the country cottage style makers seem to have the monopoly on most bird feeders. I thought this cheery modern feeder was a nice change of pace.
-
Bolga Baskets – These baskets from West Elm would be a great way to add a pop of color to any room for the spring.
So who’s ready to redecorate with flowers and small animals?
, but you could also use a simple half-sheet size binder or another disk-bound system.
