Spring decorating! (diy,crafts,chalk paint projects}
IS it just me? or does anyone else just about this time of year, start yearning for Spring?
Want to see what more I was doing last year?
One of my first out door projects was this bench...
{Post here}
Not sure if I will be changing the color again this year. I am still loving it.
I started getting into a bit more stenciling...

My hubby is off this weekend and we are heading out to the movies and out to eat with the kids.
Finally, the viruses are over for now in our house.
Still time to get in on the

All looks so fresh and Spring like but as I look out my window at the snow falling, I think it will be a bit until I can get in the mood for Spring because Winter has finally arrived here in Northeast Pa.!
Hugs,
Debbie
Debbie, these are some great inspiration photos. I had Spring Fever all winter!! We've had unusually mild weather. Then, today it is freezing cold, with a chance of sleet and snow flurries tomorrow night. I give up!
38 days until spring. Gargh! Your flower photos have help considerably :0)
I want at least one snow day before Spring arrives. I remember all your pretty Spring things. Have fun with your family today, Gail
Those little bottles with the flowers....sigh
Lorraine
Love all your inspirations but I think I like the watering cans the best,but could use all of them at this point. It's 14 degrees here and snowing.
I'm a new Linky Follower too!
I could always skip Valentines and skip right to spring. Always ready for spring. (And I rarely have to suffer through winter even...go figure.)
Cold and gray here today, Debbie, so thanks for the springy eye candy!!
Oh girl you are so far ahead of me in spring...looking at weather at home (we are leaving fl today) and it is in the 40's....but I can live vicariously through you my friend...love your seashell lamp shade btw
nope it's not just you! I would love if Spring would come tomorrow! but for today I'll enjoy the fluffy new snow :) those tulips make me hopeful tho!!
Love the spring inspirations, Debs! Glad you are all back to healthy. We are heading off to see a movie this afternoon, too! Yay!
Hard to think of spring here today. Very cold and windy after I was certainly thinking spring with all the warm weather we were having.
That bench was a great project, Debbie! Most of my Spring thinking right now is what I can plant in pots and around our condo. I don't have the yard and gardens I had in my old house here {which is okay with me}, as I tended more toward potting flowers in the last few years anyway. So, I'm the lookout for ideas for that.
We are having super weather, so I am really thinking spring. I need to get a few projects done. Love all of your projects and your inspiration pics. Can't wait to see what you create. Hugs, Marty
Beautiful photos Debbie, thanks for the the inspiration. I would love for Spring to get here, but we just had snow again last night:( It will be a while for me.
I have not doubt you will come up with something wonderful.
I start yearning for a Spring a bit I usually start thinking about all my daffadils I planted 300 bulbs and I think about my flowering trees.

sooo looking forward to spring =) I can't wait for tulips, daffodils and lush, green grass (where we live, it's all brown and yucky right now).
Pretty inspiration pice!!! We have had hardly any winter at all this year, got spoiled!!! But today it has returned with a vengence, so Spring is far off.....
It's not just you Debbie! I'm longing for spring and summer too! This is why I posted something of similar subject yesterday! Have a nice weekend!
Glad to hear that you all are feeling better. Sounds like fun to get out of the house and do something different for a change. Looking forward to seeing what new projects you come up with this Spring.
Winter returned with all it's wind, cold, and snow yesterday. I guess Spring is on hold here in the northern part of Michigan...for a while anyway.
At least I can come over here and get inspired.
Enjoy your weekend, Debbie.
xxoo
Me, me... I can't wait for spring. Also, I've been dying to try out that chalk paint. I think I'll use it when I psi t the baby's dresser... When I find time! What's your favorite chalk paint project or color you've done so far?
That inspiration vignette with the metal cans is beautiful; but, no, I'm not anxious for Spring, although the last few days have been in the 70's & the trees all all budding out. The reason I'm not ready is because of what will follow close on the heels of Spring -- SUMMER with its scorching heat! Oh well, things are a bloomin', so best enjoy it now!
Thanks for stopping by to see my latest vignettes. So glad you like the candles, me too!
CAS
Oh I love that photo of the metal watering cans!
Enjoy your weekend!
It has been spring all winter here so I really yearn for some rain but I did buy twenty four pansy plants yesterday so I guess I have the bug. Guess what I am doing today?
Yep! I'm in the mood too...ready to start "pinning" spring/Easter projects. I LOVE that bench and the color! Thanks for bringing a little spring into my day, especially since I'm looking out over the first real snow of the year here. :)
Heather
Hmmm, I know I have seen some of those cans in my dad's garage. Although they might be gas cans, lol. I really like that idea, and of course all the others. Since we are apparently not having winter this year, I might as well go on into spring too!
So fresh and pretty!
Enjoyed seeing the touches of Spring. Our Spring like weather disappeared - very cold here today. :(
Enjoy your weekend.
No nekking, in the back row!
~Bliss~
Oh- I am soooo enjoying a SPRING weekend here in FL. When I come here I always wonder why I ever moved to the snowy north. I love your Spring projects..and don't you DARE paint that bench! I am STILL loving it as much as I did when you painted it last year! I'll let you know when I get tired of it, m'kay? xo Diana
this was just what my winter weary eyes needed, have a wonderful time at the movies
Beautiful ideas, I loved the Spring in a can and your last pic of the floral centerpiece. I thought we were gonna get by with virtually no snow this winter here in central pa, but its coming down hard here now so I will have to simply enjoy your ideas.
Yes, spring fever is here.
These are all so cute! I can't wait for spring!

Ahhhh, your wonderful pictures have me yearning for Spring, too! I remember when you did many of them, especially your blue bench ... love it!!
Those where great Spring projects in 2011 and I can't wait to see what you come up with for 2012!! LOVE that bench color Debbie! Pretty inspiration pics love that first one!
Ohhh, I've got a bench that could use a bright dose of spray paint. Great idea and inspiration. Thanks!
I love the bottles circled with twine...great inspiration. Have fun at the movies!
Spring will be here before we know it! Have a wonderful weekend with your family!
XO,
Jane
On a cold day like today, movies sound like a great idea. I had a few projects I wanted to work on today, but it's too cold for me! Love the photo of the watering cans.
Beautiful photo's Debbie! We honestly haven't had much in the way of a winter here so I'm craving some rain!!! I feel like I need to be active and outdoorsy when it's summery...I want some hunker down and stay inside weather:( Oh well...
No it's not just you Debbie. I am anxiously waiting for spring to get here. I want to get to planting and dining and relaxing outdoors. I love the spring and summer months.
Danielle
I do love the color blue of your bench! Those are some great projects and inspiration. Usually I can't wait for spring, but we haven't had a big snow yet and it just doesn't feel right to move toward spring without at least going sledding once...and then bring on the sun :)
So in the MOOD...counting the days to daylight savings time and GREEN GRASS:)
Blessings,
Linda
I love all your visions of spring. I usually get spring fever too, but this year I didn't have to because it's basically been spring here all winter! Had to use the A/C in the car today as we were out and about.
It's snowing here tonight, but I'm right there with ya on the spring thing!
I've been thinking Spring too. We had some snow here in Illinois, but overall, the entire winter was rather mild. Great inspiration.
That easter egg thing got me excited! I looked at the weather in Minnesota today. 15 degrees but felt like 0!!!! Oh my and I was cold here and it was 51!!! I am in a spring mood too!
You have some really pretty spring things. I just adore those little pink flowers and mini daisies with the pink plaid table dressing.
I went thrifting last night and ended up filling my cart with front porch and back porch stuff only. I had no idea I was doing it until I went to check out. I guess a couple of porch makeovers are on the horizon for me. :)
Hi Debbie,
I have spring fever so bad but we still have snow on the ground so it may be quite awhile yet.
I love your projects from last season, that bench is just amazing!
Thanks for some inspiration!
Cindy
I am definitely getting spring fever and am ready to begin some big changes in our farmhouse! Thanks for the inspiration.
Ok I'm ready to get Springy! What beautiful inspiration! Love all yours and the ones you found!
Debbie
I am so loving the outdoor bench you did last spring, I say keep it that color!
Our weather has felt like Spring the last couple of months except for today, COLD and breezy!!!
Sylvia
Beautiful inspiration pics! It's been such a mild winter this year, that I've been thinking about spring. Glad to hear you're all healthy again.
You always have such cute designs on here.
Dolly
This so pretty Debbie I love the flowers and think I seen that same watering can idea love it so pretty makes you excited for those first buds to poke their little heads out of the ground soon...xoxo Sue
I still love your blue garden bench! Swoon. Anyhoo, thanks for sharing all of your good ideas. Toodles, Kathryn @TheDedicatedHouse
