Take a look at a few new things around our house. First, is a pot filled with blunt-cut pussy willows at our front door. They're a nice transition to the pansies and primroses that provide us with that early spring color. The blunt cut gives them a modern look.

These fabric flowers relate to the kitschy side of me. I love how their oversized petals are pliable, so I can adjust them any way I want. (I'm not a control freak, am I?)

Just about every time I go to Zimman's for a client, I walk away with fabric for myself. I fell in love with the above and am thinking of updating all of my sofa pillows with it. What do you think?

During a recent walk through Winston Flowers I came across this curvaceous vase and just had to have it. Its narrow opening makes displaying flowers or succulents a cinch, and when not in use, the bronze interior is as pretty as any botanical on display.

Anything new at your place? If so, please send me photos. I'd love to see some springtime changes!
