Spring Lovelies







I think the pictures probably speak for themselves. I love spring!

Don't forget: I'm still gathering photos of your favorite decorating details -- anything from a pair of salt and pepper shakers to a favorite old quilt, to...well, whatever makes your heart sing. Email them to me at mrcarroll@optonline.net, and don't forget to include a small explanation, your name, and (if applicable) your blog link. I'm shooting for a Monday or Tuesday post. Thanks!

  3. What's the plant in the bottom photo? Some sort of hellebore? You have more spring than we do!

  4. Thirkellgirl -- yes, it is a hellebore. Luckily, the deer have not found it yet...

  5. You take such magnificent photographs. These flowers look so inspiring. My husband just returned from a business trip to Princeton and he was sharing with me how the trees were beginning to bloom. I always loved how gorgeous New Jersey was in Spring. I just sent you an e-mail with a detail of my favorite decorating. I wrote a post about it today too. Have a lovely weekend. Karen

  6. Mary, I am so glad you are seeing signs of spring because I know you have spring in your heart.

    I will try to send you a picture this evening. I did a post March 11 about a favorite in my home.

  11. Hi, Mary, just sitting at Panera waiting for my hubby to be finished so we can fly back home tonight & I'm catching up on some of my blogs for the week.

    Let's see...the painting you did when you were a girl, that shows a lot of talent to me. Keep going with your art, you have nothing to lose. I always enjoy stopping by here to see what else you've found in the back of your closet or drawer! I have no such treasures hanging out.
