Thoughts of Springtime

This time of year I’m really done with winter. Especially a long, snowy, brutally cold winter. My thoughts turn to warm weather, starting my seedlings and Easter. Pastel colors are everywhere in the springtime. My color palette tends to lean that way as well even when its really one of my least favorites to work with if I’m completely honest. Yet here it is…pastels.

I think the pastels remind me of rebirth, soft and new…like baby clothes and accessories. Or maybe it’s just babies…spring is full of birth and babies! None here…and that’s 100% just fine. :)

As I take this photo this is my view…pouring rain on the mountains of snow…now we are in a flood warning too.

We are lucky enough not to live in the river valley so we just have to deal with local street flooding on occasion. So spring really can’t get here soon enough for me.

    I’m inspired by your inclusion of fabric elements, and your spring colors are lovely :) We didn’t get your snow, of course, but oh! this rain! So much rain!

    I’m back and will play catch-up as best I can. This has been a very trying time being without internet, but I HOPE this has been the cure. I’ll explain on Wednesday, because it’s too convoluted to explain here.
