my easter-inspired mantel

it must be spring; i can feel it in my bones!
that deep craving for bare legs & rich green grass.
the simple beginnings of our garden… fingers deep in the dirt covering seeds.
bright colors & warm sunshine.

despite the dark & gloomy days that have been lingering around these parts, i’m certain spring is just around the corner.
to celebrate, i decorated my mantel with cheerful spring & easter-inspired decorations!
i re-used last year’s bunny banner from target & strung it atop my big green boxwood wreath (also from target). i purchased a few gold dot easter eggs from hobby lobby for a bit of sparkly goodness. 
amidst my collection of old hardback books & chippy frames, i placed a green mason jar on my mantel full of this season’s happy flags!
my etsy shop re-opens this thursday, march 12th, with bright & colorful goods just in time for the arrival of spring!
i absolutely love the easter-inspired set of happy flags (shown above)! i imagine them bundled up in an easter basket & peeking out of wheatgrass on a cozy mantelpiece. 
i’m also introducing mini happy flags! yay! 
they’re perfect for tiny plants, cupcakes, party decorations & more. this rainbow set can transition from spring to summer, adding a pop of color to any tabletop!
& of course, there will be more of the skinny headbands in happy spring colors as well as reversible headbands & stretchy bands!
i hope you’ll join me at my shop on thursday, march 12th at 8am cst!
