Spring Cleaning and Dreaming

After spending most of the day Saturday cleaning , I am officially ready for warm sunshiny days.  I am ready for the sun to pour through our windows and to see things coming alive again outdoors.

 

I so enjoyed cleaning and freshening our home and bringing in hints of spring here and there.  You can see who I spent my Saturday cleaning with in my last POST.

 

I recently took some of my grandmother’s beautiful floral hankies and made them into a simple little runner.

I do have a sewing machine but really don’t know how to sew other than a simple straight stitch.  That’s all it took to sew these delicate hankies one to another.

It truly means so much to me to have things in our home that have been passed down through the generations.  It makes my heart smile to think of her using these.

I love them hanging on my old green ladder so I can easily see them.

This pitcher is the perfect shade of green and again reminds me of the nearness of springtime.

Spring will be here soon.

 

I guess I shouldn’t rush away the days because each day is a gift in itself. 

 

This is the day that the Lord has made, let us (me) rejoice and be glad in it!

 

Have a wonderful day filled with sunshine no matter how cold it may be where you are.
