Spring Blossom Palette

Spring is teasing us here in New Mexico. The last few weeks have been unseasonably warm (no complaints here!) but I know we’re in for at least one more big freeze. Personally, I’d be happy if it would just get hotter and hotter from now until Summer, but apparently I don’t get to make the rules.

Instead, I’ll just enjoy all the budding plants and trees, and hope they won’t all be killed if the temperature does plummet again.

By this time of year, I’ve had it with winter, and am ready to start seeing all the spring color, both inside and outside my home. So in honor of Spring, I’m bringing you a new palette today.

I love these muted pastels, and am already looking for ways to use them in my new house. Speaking of which, how do you feel about vertical blinds? Our new house is covered with them, and I’m on a mission to eradicate each one.

I’m about halfway through, and the pile of discarded blinds is growing daily on the floor of my living room. Forget unpacking all the boxes, these blinds are a priority! It seems like every time I leave the house these days, I’m buying curtains and rods. Now THAT’s my kind of spring cleaning!
