Easter is in five minutes and spring is here.  I’m done with the drab colors of winter and being a prisoner inside. A simple way to banish the winter doldrums is to add color and brighten a room by switching table decor.  This Spring Table Decor transitions well into summer and you can customize it any way you’d like so…

It’s freezing outside and being stuck inside makes me feel bottled up.  Having extra time to stare at the walls gives me reason to look around the house and find areas to spruce up.  DIY Curtains are the fastest way (in my opinion) to give a room a fresh new look.  I made them from twin bedsheets so the cost…
