Pretty Things That Speak of Spring

Holy Frozen Underwear Batman! It is so cold here in Western Pennsylvania......7 degrees to be exact with a windchill of -17 degrees! Very, very, very cold! Like a said yesterday in my blog..."just a good time to stay in and craft"! However, I did venture out yesterday for a brief time and bought a few pretty little things.......pastel colored jordan almonds, a paper mache' Easter Bunny and a plate with a beautiful peony and humming bird on it for my mom. Now, what do all of these things have in common?.....hmmmmmm......are you thinking?.....yes! that's right they all have to do with warmer weather! It must have been subliminal thinking on my part.....spring is in the depths of my mind like daffodil bulbs in the depths of the earth just waiting to spring to the surface! I was at Lowe's yesterday in the 3 degree weather and I found myself transfixed in front of the spring/summer bulbs....dalias...cannas....elephant ears.....glads....I was entranced as the cold wind blew across my butt everytime the door opened and closed snapped my back to reality within a few minutes!


Here are the pretty spring things.............
