Lovely Links | Spring Edition

Happy second day of spring! I have to keep reminding myself that it's technically spring, even though it felt like it was about 20 degrees outside this morning (brr!). I'm so, so ready for warm weather and the brighter colors that come with this season. I know the warmer weather is on its way because the daffodils and crocuses have started to bloom in the park nearby, but it sure doesn't feel like spring yet.

Looking back at my pins from the past couple of weeks, I noticed I've been drawn to spaces and projects with more pops of bright color than usual...maybe it's a subconscious longing for spring? So today I thought I'd share a little springy eye candy with y'all. Maybe it'll help me (and you?) get through this last little bit of lingering winter!

1 | This adorable boys' room comes from a home tour A Cup of Jo posted yesterday. The apartment is only 500 square feet (!), but looks much bigger. I keep going back to this tour and saying, "There's NO WAY this is only 500 square feet." Maybe I shouldn't whine about our little 600 square foot apartment if this is what you can do with 500. How the heck are there two bedrooms in that place?

2 | Wish I knew the original source of this photo Milk and Honey Home posted, but in any case, I'm loving this collection of bowls. Maybe they'd let me steal borrow a few? 

{source - couldn't find the original! sorry!}

3 | These flowers. They're made of paper. How's that for awesome? Front & Main (West Elm's blog) posted about these beauties and more yesterday. I'm seeing a spring DIY project in my future...

4 | I'm dreading my next visit to Target after seeing the new products from the Threshold Collection (via The Handmade Home) because I'm going to want to load up my cart with sooo many things, like these painted jars and other vessels. Someone blindfold me now...before I get myself into trouble.

5 | I'm new to the Julep shop from Minted, but after seeing this little project, I'm thinking I need to spend a little more time there in the future. This is a perfect project for Easter (can't believe it's next Sunday!), but I have to say, I'm more about the Jesus part of it than the decorating part.

6 | Lastly, I'm loving this white and gold credenza against those pink walls. Well done, Kate, well done. The deep pink was a great choice.

Ok spring, now you have to do your part and bring on the flowers, singing birds and most importantly, warmer weather!
