Stepping into Spring

Although not even the hardest of snowdrops seem to be brave enough to show themselves yet, I have a feeling that Spring is in the air. Ok, maybe not in my garden yet but definitely wherever I look for inspiration.

I have noticed lately that a lot of the pinsters I follow have started pinning more and more rooms with happy bursts of colour. Whether this is conscious or not, it seems we are craving some buds of brightness in these final dark days of winter. Here are a few that have caught my eye this week...

How can this slice of sunshine not cheer anyone up? What I love with nearly all of these rooms is how the bright bursts of colour are all accessories, take them away and the room has a neutral base that can be quickly changed to give a whole new feel. Genius

Sorbet colours are so pretty, mix and match with plenty of white and you can't go wrong for full on feminine charm..

Now this I love: mismatched chairs, painted furniture and a window nook - what could make for a more cheery breakfast area? More on this property next week...

Lastly, blooming marvellous...
