Beautiful photos!!
You are so lucky to have your flowers
out already!!
Beautiful as always. You have such a skill. The only thing blooming here tonight is new snow.
Love daffodils and forsythia - 2 of the first signs of Spring. Thanks for sharing them with us.
Hope you had a great Birthday celebration.
Don't you just love gifts that are so carefully chosen? Your faux bois vase is beautiful. What a treasure. Not only do I love your Spring flowers, but I LOVE the hook you hung your pretty lantern from. Such a unique way to hang it. Love, love love!
Happy Birthday dear Erin!
Hugs,
Karen

Happy Birthmonth... it keeps going and going and...
Wowwwww it is all so so so beautiful !! nice decorated!! amazing vase !!!....lovely day...may it bring lots of sunshine and love....xxx...
Oh dearest I MISSED YOUR BIRTHDAY???? I hope it was a great one, and again, you have captured a color that I really have never been big on, but I think that you have the capacity to mix any color with WHITE and it makes it stand out even more. WE STILL HAVE TONS OF SNOW and we are getting a major storm TODAY! The days are getting longer for us, but it doesn't seem right since we are still in the winter mode. It has to be coming, IT JUST HAS TO COME, SPRING!!!
THANK YOU FOR VISITING; we had a great celebration for our anniversary! LOve, Anita
Happy Birthday my friend...such beauty here today...you have the magic touch for styling!!! I love the yellows......wish our spring flowers were blooming! So for now I will enjoy yours! Hugs for a great Tuesday.
Erin...as usual you put up the most inpirational post! I love the spring yellow and the white painted pots and everything that you have put with it. Thankyou for this lovely image.
So pretty!!! So jealous ~ still so drab here :(
Happy birthday Erin!!! So glad you had a nice birthday and such a lovely gift.

Happy birthday:)
So many lovely photos I'm so green for envious that you have spring.
Greetings from Finland
Your mantel is beautiful my friend! All the flowers are so wonderful and the yellow is just soothing to my senses! What a beautiful gift as well from your daughter, it is perfect! I can't wait for things to start blooming here.
Have a wonderful day.
Here in East Tenn, we have a lot of bloom going on. Our lovely yellow narcissus are everywhere, the blue squill is in bloom, the hyacinths are beginning to peek at me and I expect to see the little muscari at any time!
I love your pictures they are so full of color. They make me feel, like when you put your face up to the sun with your eyes closed but you can feel the light.
Wanted to look at Spring, so I came back to visit once more.... so soothing here with the mellow yellow and mellow tunes...
Have a wonderful tomorrow dear

Sooo lovely! You have a lot more blooming than we do so far. But I'm sure we'll catch up. Love the vase, too. I'll be talking like that soon – leaving for Savannah and Charleston on the 30th! xo – g
Good morning dearest...do you know that my husband is in TENNESSEE at this very moment? He is touring the South with some colleagues at the university. PEACE TO YOU DEAR SISTER...Anita
