Springspiration!

The unusually warm weather has yielded some beautiful days and has things blooming everywhere!!  I like this time of year because it's usually when things that I forgot I planted start to sprout out of the ground and I'm ecstatic about the fact that there's one less plant I'll need to purchase.  A perennial planted is a penny saved.

One thing is for sure, all of the blue skies, blooming trees, shrubs, bulbs and plants provide great design inspirations.

Take this beautiful Saucer Magnolia Tree.  I had no idea there were pink blooming Magnolias!



The variation of color in the bloom is a great scheme when using pink as an accent.  Like in this toss pillow....

Red tulips.....

Maybe red and green aren't just for the holidays anymore.

This tree in my front yard was in full bloom a couple of weeks ago...
And I love how this room incorporates all of the natural colors of spring; the blue sky, the brown branches, the green leaves and the white blooms.  So very laid back and effortlessly comfy.
