Spring Decor

Here is a look at our spring mantel: 

Colorful, lively, cheery, bright. Just what I've needed :) 

Here is a closer look: 

My wooden plantation blinds- which I love! {thrifted almost 2 years ago}

Spring blocks {Target: $2.50)

Mini coffee filter wreath {homemade: $1}

I have had these plantation blinds for almost 2 years. I saw them- fell in love- and bought them before even thinking "What the heck can I do with them?" 

And since then I still have no idea! 

I saw them sitting in the corner of my craft room and was determined to use them- 

what do you think? 

As for the mini coffee filter wreath- a tutorial is coming soon {tomorrow to be exact!} 

so if you like what you see... stay tuned! 

Here are a few other things from the mantel: 

This beauty is made exactly like it looks. 

A glass jar filled with magenta easter grass and a ribbon tied around that- placed on a cake stand with some spring moss. 

Told ya, just like it looks. 

Next up: wheat grass

There are several tutorials out there on how to do this- and it really is very straight forward. I'm growing some more in another container and hoping that it gets a little more full than this one. 

Full or not, I still love the fresh air it brings to the mantel. 

These babies are actually not on our mantel but they are sitting on top of the piano. 

These are made with some paint swirled around inside of the mason jars to cover it completely and then set out overnight to dry. 

I love the smoothness they have- not to mention the color! 

Here is a look at the full size coffee filter wreath which will have a complete tutorial tomorrow: 

I love this wreath! I can't wait to show you how to make it for yourself :) 

And here is one last look at the very springy mantel: 

Happy Thursday!

XOXO,
