~ Read Enchanted April by Elizabeth VonArnim. This is my favorite way of welcoming spring.
~ Go on a picture walk and capture all the world bursting into bloom.
~ Wash your windows and make them sparkle.
~ Watch this version of "The Secret Garden". Enjoy the time elapse coming of spring.
~ Put on a sweater and throw open all the windows. Don't worry if it's chilly, let the breezes blow away all the winter mustiness.
~ Gather all the left over winter items that somehow didn't make it back into storage. Store them now.
~ Change out your potpourri, Scentsy, room spray, and/or perfume. Consider something light and floral.
~ Buy the first big bunch of tulips or daffodils you see. On second thought, buy two bunches. Enjoy filling vases. Put one in the entryway, one on the table, and one on your nightstand. Sweet dreams.
~ Wash your car inside and out. Empty the trunk, wash the mats, vacuum every surface, clean the inside of the windows, and add a trash sack so you can keep it nice and tidy.
~ Head to the nearest park for some great people watching. Spend a little time on the tallest swing. Why not go a little crazy? It's spring!
Happy April.

Still some snow left here but that's an inspiring list for spring.
Nice list

love the ending....sigh
This looks like a beautiful painting, Relyn.
Good suggestion each and every one of them. Now just trying to get organized here and head for a car wash. They can clean the inside too, at least I am told. Love Enchanted April and The Secret Garden. Oh yes, the more flowers to better.
yes! celebrating with you:)

Brilliantly upbeat :). Off to clean the car. And clear out my wardrobe :).
Yes!! And I have been soooo ready for it! (And I like winter and snow--but I am ready for a change.)
I am hoping to go on a picture walk this weekend as a matter of fact--before the first blooms are gone!
Oh how I love that photo! Happy Spring, Relyn! My favorite time of year.
I LOVE Enchanted April. And boy, I'd just like to have it warm enough to put my clothes in storage. Can you believe I'm still wearing wool sweaters, shawls and gloves? Yes, I am. And they aren't gardening gloves, either. It's too cold to put much of anything except peas and lettuce in the ground. Heavy sigh...
