Spring Fever
Is anyone else getting Spring fever? I am! Really bad. I want it to hurry up and be warm already. Since I can't start planting flowers outside yet, I thought our house could use a little green.
I'm not really a fan of houseplants, but I do love the look of succulents. They just have so many layers of texture. So, I picked out three different kinds. Aren't they cute?!
I started to go directly for the green and blue planters, but stopped myself. I need to push myself out of my comfort zone. So, I chose this coral colored planter instead. It picks up some of the color in one of the succulents so well.
I needed a whole bag of the cactus soil, but it can be mixed with regular potting soil when we're ready to start doing outdoor plants. Plus, it was only $4. Not too bad.
Aren't the colors of this succulent so pretty. It has a soft, silvery hue. I love it. By the way, as I was potting these it was snowing outside. Ugghh!
I placed it behind the love seat in the living room next to a clock in a West-facing window. It gets tons of bright light and brightens up this space so nicely!
It amazes me how something as simple as a plant can perk up an area of your home.
And, I am so glad I stepped out of the box and added a totally different color into the mix of decor.
I can feel it! Spring will be here soon.
Pretty! Love the coral color too! I find myself doing the same thing... I gravitate toward blues and greens, but I've figured out that I get tired of any other colors. LOL!! However, I think a quick pop of something different here and there is a good idea. I'm going to have to try that in the dining room... If it ever comes time to decorate it. LOL! ;)
