Hello again friends. Hope you’re having a great week so far.
We are enjoying our Spring break so far and I’m hoping that this week goes by reeeaaalllly slow.
Not having to turn off the alarm clock in the mornings is always such a treat isn’t it?
Today I’m sharing a little bit of our home decorated for Spring.
I have been feeling a little restless with my decor, changing it from day to day and not being completely satisfied with it.
Do you ever feel that way? I’m not one to jump into trends or bring home decor that doesn’t feel right.
But I’m feeling like I just can’t really figure out which way to go with our decor right now.
This is what the room currently looks like. I decided to move the couches away from the wall so I could place two lamps at either side.
My original plan was to make a simple table for behind the couch, but I haven’t gotten to it yet. So for now, I’ve just placed two
pieces of furniture behind there which just happen to fit perfectly.
This is what the living room looked just a couple of days ago.Looking back at this now, I guess it looked ok.
Maybe it’s just the time of year and the need for a little change.
Which set up do you prefer?
I do love the soft blues and the yellows for Spring. My bee pillow arrived just the other day and it coordinated perfectly with the rest of the pillows.
You can purchase your own here with free shipping right now.
Not much is happening in the dining room yet,but I will share my Spring hutch soon.
I also changed our family room and added this gorgeous rug from Rugs USA. I love it so much.
This one is called Maui chunky loop and it’s perfect for this space during this time of the year. Our sweet dog
Brody loves to go outside often and due to the thawing ground, he comes in with muddy paws.
Even though I am very diligent at wiping his paws every time,
this rug is a little more forgiving with dirt than our white shag rug is.
I will probably keep it around through the summer and fall.
I really like the casual feel it adds to the space.
I love tulips and I can’t seem to pass them up while at the grocery store. I usually purchase the discounted bunch and place them in the garage during the evenings.
The coolness of the garage keeps them from drooping and makes them last longer.
I kept the mantel fairly simple by just adding a few bottles and this adorable little terrarium.
I got it discounted because one of the glass panels had unglued off the wood.
It just needed a little hot glue and it’s as good as new.
I decided to bring back my old window frame and added a couple of faux branches, a little nest and some wooden letters.
I decided to keep the letters unpainted and raw. I might paint them white, but I felt that the raw color of the wood coordinated well with the browns of the nest.
I have really been enjoying the scent of these Hyacinths this year.
They inspired this little painting. I’m actually working on a fun printable for you, just need to find the time to download the photos.
You can see more of the front entry here
So that’s all I have for now. I hope you found some fun ideas to incorporate in your own Spring decor this year.
Don’t forget to visit the rest of my friends as they share their beautiful Spring homes as well.
Thank you all so much for being here.
Have a beautiful day.
much love,

I love these decorations. The bee pillow is awesome!
LindaSonia says
I love the new setup – looks great! I’m going through the same thing in my home – moving things around and shaking things up. I think Spring does that to you!! Love your bee pillow too!
Jennifer says
Lucy … beautiful! And yes, I love the furniture behind the sofa. It adds depth to your already gorgeous room! Lovin’ the bee pillow too.
Danielle says
Oh, Lucy, so beautiful. I think I love the couch set up with the weathered lamps. 🙂 The new rug is gorgeous and I think I need that bee pillow. My childhood dog, a poodle,was named honey bee. Loving all your decorating and your lovely mantel. x

Tulips are so pretty! Your house is beautiful!!
Rachel says
Ok, here are the things I want to say: I 100% support your decision to move the couch out a little and put the make-shift sofa table behind it… it really makes that area a focal point and I LOVE the look of the lamps on either side with the mirror in the middle… it’s just cozier looking! And I also MUCH prefer the turquoise/blue and yellow theme in the room! It looks so fresh for spring. Secondly, I think your black and pink floral flats in the other living room are adorable. I want some. Where did you get them? Also, this room with the fireplace is looking SO GOOD with the addition of the large feather prints (or originals? I can’t tell) on either side of the fireplace. This was another STELLER choice. And that rug? Perfect choice for that room! Love the added texture! Can I just say, I’m really digging the feathers here and there in all the main areas of your home? Of course I love the mantel and all the flowers…. you done good, girl! 🙂
Susan says
Lucy, I love the sofa table behind the sofa. It makes the whole room look wonderful!
Alison- The Pink Tumbleweed says
I love the new room set-up and the blue & yellow! Very fresh & springy!
Jenn says
Gorgeous as always Lucy! Love the blues and yellows and your bee pillow is so cute and perfect for the space!
Gail Plaskiewicz says
I love all your flowers and wish they weren’t so expensive around here so I could purchase some. We still have a ton of snow and we are supposed to get more this weekend. Will it ever end? LOL I love the smell of fresh flowers and yes, even though no one believes me, daffodils and tulips have a smell. I love how you did the pillow but my problem is it looks so real and I am terrified of bees. I’ve never been stung.
I love both ways you did the living room. I don’t have a favorite. Your house always looks so nice.
Carol says
I am loving the new set up in your living room. It’s so fresh and inviting.
Makes me want to go out and buy all new 🙂

Oh, Lucy, I LOVE your Spring decor! That bee pillow is adorable and you already know how much I love your terrarium. And those lamps! I must own them.
Amanda says
It’s ALL SO beautiful and lovely! I love your mantel and the nest with branches. The bottles look so pretty, too! Such great inspiration for Spring!
Carol Pitts says
Im loving everything about the new set up. It is all beautiful. The colors are so fresh, springy and inviting. Would you be willing to share where you got your pillows?
Antonella | Love Your Home Blog says
Your home is so beautiful, and I like the Spring touches. If I were to choose, I prefer the table and lamps behind the couch. And I have that lamp at home too! I see we have some similarities in our style 🙂 Love the addition of fresh flowers too. That’s a Spring must over here as well.
Krista says
I always love getting peaks at your beautiful home, Lucy. It looks amazing all ready for spring- and your latest paintings are stunning. Thanks for sharing it!
Felt Ball Rug says
So many lovely little touches in all of these different rooms. The earthy accents and all the natural light really speak to the essence of Spring! Our all natural, fair trade felt ball rugs would work wonderfully in all of these seasonally themed spaces!
Sue says
Hi, I really love your throw cushions and want to order several of them. Can you please tell the size of the Bee Throw Cushion on your Ektorp Sofa as i have one also and want to order the same size cushion that you have here in these pic’s. Love your decorating style. Sue
Tracie says
I like the spring look more, I think. The details behind the sofa make things pop more, and the colors and pillows I like a lot for spring. I liked the old look, but the spring look is great! The lamps are nice and really add to it. I love the cute charm look you have going on EVERYWHERE! It is just plain fun!
