Spring Things

Before the warm weather arrived, I did some work on the demi-lune table that I found at an antique shop.  It is now painted and holding plants in our entry.    The table's original wood finish and veneer were not in great shape, so I gave it a good sand and a couple coats of paint.  This area gets a lot of sunlight through the front door, so hopefully the plants will like it here.

It's so good to get outside on a warm spring day for a hike.  Long before anything else greens up, the moss and ferns and lichens are bright spots in the gray and brown woods.

It looked much neater here before the snow melted and revealed the mess.  Lots of weeding and winter clean up to do in our gardens.

It's so good to be able to hang the laundry out on the clothesline again.

I hope you had a wonderful Easter.  The night before, I was up until 10 catching up on the embroidery on this table cloth ~ why do I leave things until the last minute?!  We had a warm sunny day, some traditional Polish Easter foods, and an Easter egg hunt for the two-year old grandsons.  The joy on their faces was the highlight of my day.

What a nice job you did on restoring the table, and you do get a lot of light in your living area!
You have such a talent for finding old doors, windows and then decorating with them. Thank you for sharing.

Melissa,
Thank you so much for your recent comments. Hope your Easter was good. I have wondered how you are doing as I had not heard from you in a while, and I am glad you found your way here. What exciting news about your moving! Hope all goes smoothly.

Hi there, I haven't visited here in forever. I always loved your blog posts. I guess I let Instagram take over. I've signed up for notifications and will happily be visiting again. Have a great day!

Hi Deb! Was on Pinterest and your name popped up. I completely forgot that you were going back to blogging as you initially started. Thought I had signed up for notifications...but I am now. I noticed I commented in early January, but it was not a good month as I was in covid recovery.
I love seeing your posts of snippets of your home. Looking forward to seeing new posts. Happy Spring!
