Waiting for Spring........




Spring...what does spring mean to you?
For me, spring marks then end of my deep winter sleep! A time to come of out hibernation. I get itchy to leave the confines of the house and move into our outdoor living space. My tastebuds are ready for bbq´s and sipping my favorite vino on the patio.
Unfortunately....mother nature does not share my views as she is letting us wait and is sharing with us cold and rain instead of blue skies and sunshine. So, to make that wait not seem so long, I have brought spring into our indoor living space, by creating a spring tablescape. I am very honored to share this tablescape with Chloe Crabtreechloe
Chloe contacted me recently and asked if I would like to take part in a Spring Tablescape Blog Hop! Of course I said yes! I can´t wait to see what the other bloggers have created.
 



One of the perks of living in Germany? Flowers are very inexpensive. I can get 2 bunches of tulips at the grocery store for less than 5 Euros!


Back in January, I was in Cloppenburg visiting family and managed a stop at one of my favorite stores there....Depot The Outlet Store.. OMG....I could go crazy there everytime! My Spring sign as well as the little bird and table runner come from Depot.




Another one of my favorite stores is ACTION...a dutch based company. Until recently I could only enjoy this store when I was in Cloppenburg, but now Berlin has  one too! That is where I purchased the candlestick holder that you see in the picture above...(i regret not buying two!)




My yellow charger plates are from Ikea!


THe napkin rings are from my sister Heidi


THe wine glasses were a gift from a my friends Irene and Chris


I always try to have some edible decorations on the table..... Found these cute chocolates at TJ Maxx

 

Happy Spring Everyone!
