Six more weeks of Winter

My best friend and celebrate Groundhog Day. I'm sure you are probably thinking, "really?". Yes, really. It started back in college when I shared the back story behind Punxsutawney Phil. We also celebrate DayLight Saving which is a story for another day. Despite not being a fan of Winter, I look forward to relaxing and enjoying being in my home this time of year. Mother Nature’s way of helping us slow down. There is a calmness that comes during this time of year that I have learned to appreciate. Soon the windows will be open and warm air will be blowing in.

I've been chatting with some friends about updates we want to make to our homes for Spring. Most of us are looking for new pillows and maybe an update to a rug in one or two rooms. Color is key. I'm leaning towards keeping my rug's light and neutral and adding in shades of pink and tan with some pops of gold and green. What are the colors you want to see more of in your home? Do you have plans for updates? Next up, I will share the easy under-the-counter lighting I installed in the kitchen. I will also share some easy updates I made to our window treatments.

Off to enjoy some coffee by the fire.
