Lightening up for Spring!

This past weekend I rearranged the living room furniture and made some Spring-y decorations.  I used fun paper (designs with purples, navy, greens, and silver) and my heart paper-punch to make a garland to hang from the columns between the living room and dining room.  I also used fun paper (blues, blue-greens, greens, gold, and a bit of feathery flowery white) to make a hanging decoration above the mantle.  My parents gave me a sweet circle cutter for Christmas,so it is easy as pie to cut out perfect circles now!

I also through a cute quilt over the black couch to lighten things up, and put the new baby plants (we got lettuce, broccoli, and onion starters) on the window sill near the big green plant.   Our living room is so cute and cozy in Winter, it took some extra effort to lighten it up for Spring.  It was worth it. I love the new look!

PS: You can see Chris's awesome new bike in the pic!  It is 70's model Schwinn!
