It's ironic to be posting my spring mantel today as we're back to winter weather! We awakened to wet, sloppy snow that created some morning commute problems. The snow-lined trees were beautiful early this morning, but between the slowly climbing temperatures and the extremely brisk winds (we're under a wind advisory through this evening) they've lost their appeal!
No matter how it looks or feels outside, we're thinking spring inside!
You know my fondness for cobalt and yellow! This bunny was a gift from my parents and although I've had him for years, I've never used him on the mantel before. He's typically displayed in the kitchen or solarium, but it's fun to switch things around.
It's the same with my jar. I've never placed it on the mantel, either. It barely fits in this spot, but the mantel is just the right width for it.
These faux forsythia came from Michael's many years ago, but they still carry a realistic line of floral stems in their stores. I can't wait for the real thing to bloom out in the yard!
Stay warm...and think spring!
