This week I’m hooked on spring! We had some nice days here and there in the last month or so, but this week it really seems to be here to stay. And of course, today is the first official day of spring, so it seems fitting.
I’m hooked on buds on the one little tree in my yard.
And a forsythia wreath on my door. I had the wreath, bought the forsythia branches on sale at Michael's, pulled them apart and stuck them in.
Hooked on birds, especially the real ones that are twittering and tweeting now after a winter of silence.
Remember these beauties from Williams-Sonoma?
I’m hooked on my recreation of it. I mentioned before that I wasn't sure where everybody was getting their little nests, but I found this one, just the plain nest, at Walmart. The next day I saw them for less at Hobby Lobby. Moss from Walmart, twigs and fuzzy weedy thing from my yard, little blue flowers from a faux lavender plant I had.
Visit Hooked on Houses to see what everybody else is hooked on today. I’m just guessing, but I bet I’m not the only one in love with spring!

You did a great job recreating the Williams Sonoma nests! Lovely post...happy spring!
Hey, what a great idea! You've definitely inspired me to attempt to bring a little spring into my home!
I love the wreath. It sounds so easy to make too.
Hooray for spring
I love your created nest better than WS - especially placing it on the stand - very beautiful & springy!

That's a beautiful wreath! Our forsythia is almost ready to pop and I love bringing it into the kitchen! Nothing says spring like that bright yellow. :)
Love that nest display!

Beautiful! I love your arrangements. They look so natural and just perfect for spring.
Perfect Spring accents, love the nest. Thanks for Sharing!
Your door and wreath look awesome. I want to stencil numbers on my door, too!
Between the stencils and the beautiful wreath, your home certainly says "Welcome Back, Spring!"...Hope you have a wonderful, warm weekend ahead!
I'm so glad you found the nests you were looking for. It looks so great!
Happy first day of spring! Of course, we're really about a month or so away here in CT!
Holly~I love your wreath!! I may have to copy that one for my front door. And I honestly like your nest better than WS. Fantastic! Have a great weekend~
Your wreath is absolutely gorgeous!!!
Ooh, I love what you did under the cheese dome! It looks like a pricey item from a boutique store. Great job!
I love the nests. I always buy tulips in the spring as they really get me in the mood of the season!
