Colorful Looks

Spring can be quite colorful with the flowers blooming and Spring springing up everywhere.

Sometimes the spring colors inspire us to add more color to the areas we are living in or decorating.  Here are some lovely ways to add color and cheer.

The Design Files has a post with these great looks - using an assortment of color in tassels and chairs.

I love the look of this kitchen - I found this lovely look, and a few other colorful looks, from a post titled Pottery Display - Some Of My Favorites, at
Gold Country Girls

Wouldn't this be a cheerful place to visit - from House of Turquoise

Similar colors as above, but not so bold - a bit calmer to my soul.

This collection of magazine holders, from here, is colorfully fun to look at. This whole corner is full of color.
I love my little drawers covered in paper, here. The colors are cheerful to be around.
I have used these types of magazine holders before and still have a few waiting to be used again if needed.  I might have to pull them out and find a place to use them so I can cover them in cute paper or fabric.

I still love bunting, and using bunting is an easy and fun way to add color to things and places. These three ideas come from Tatertots and Jello

Cute and colorful fabric bunting and adorable bunting cookies.

bunting on a bag will cheer up a loved one

bunting on a wall, over top of  some colorful pinwheels - imagine the colors you could use.

Here is some bunting made of colorful paper circles and white paper doilies, from Landee see Landee do.  She made this rainbow of colors for St. Patricks Day, but it would work equally nice for Easter or for birthdays, or any celebration of color.

 Color seem to add cheer and delight to any day.
Color can be so inspiring!

So ..., Spring ..., bring on the Color!

Hobby Lobby's Pinterest Boards

I've found some great looks on Hobby Lobby's Pinterest Boards.
This is not a paid advertisement, it's just something I found - you know, something that inspires and makes for a creatively galore-ious day. Here are a few of my favorites.
Hobby Lobby's Party Time board has some fun looks to save -

These are really cute favors - pinwheels added to the cork of these tiny bottles filled with candy.

Pinned from dot coms for moms

Garland is everywhere, and this is tiny stuff, but so great. Pinned from Misako Mimoko

From their Things We Love board comes this great looking bakers twine tassel that was pinned from momtastic (tutorial found there)

Beautiful decoupaged wooden hangers from their Valentine's Day board, pinned from HERE.

And these wands are kinda fun - from their Can You Even Imagine board,

They have a  board all about yarn - here are a few of my favorites from that board -

Lamp shade cover up pinned from HERE

Cover up some bottles like we see HERE


How about wrappin' some trees, like these HERE

4th of July Centerpiece / Pinwheels

I like this look from Let's Celebrate.
Pinwheels are a great look, and these seem to add a aged look that fits the 4th of July/Independence Day.

Great Wedding Looks

Decor and Photo Ops from a wedding at Green Wedding Shoes.
I do love a tent or canopy, and this sheer or mesh or tulle fabric makes a great look and a great place for a photo.

Balloons add a wonderful look too, in that beautiful gold color with the soft tone colored ribbon dangling from each.  It's a great place for photos too.

Love the Look! It must have been a beautiful wedding.

There is another wedding look on the same sight ... this one adds a different personality to the occasion.  It's an Eclectic Backyard Wedding - an outdoor area, with a great look.

The lounge area includes several sofas (check the site) and this bale sofa.

The bouquet is bright and beautiful.

Pinwheels grace the fence.

The dessert area includes great homemade mini pies.

Some drinks were served in this awesome sink tub in back of an old pickup.
