Vintage Finds for March on the Mantel

 Hi Friends,

It's March and time to change up the décor on the mantel. I have replaced the pinecone and little trees with a different color green.

A few of green ball jar, one I filled with vintage wooden spools.

The lime green vase was a thrift find last fall, I wasn't sure super happy with the colored bottom half.  Thought maybe I could wash off the red, orange, and purple at the bottom. I decided it is part of the glass vase, oh well still pretty cute artisan vase.

Some older brass candle sticks I have collected over the years center with the vintage window frame, over the fireplace.

A recent purchased framed fruit picture, I have past by this framed piece several times, not knowing how to incorporate it into my décor. 

Who knew it would be a great pieces for March décor?  

I also placed the little green creamer with a Japan stamp.  

My last vintage thrift haul I found the little white hen thinking it match another little white hen I found this summer, however as you can see they are not a like.

I love the way the mantel looks, I hope I gave you some inspiration to pull out all your green and decorate for Spring!

Thank you for stopping by to see what is going on, here at My Little Colorado Cottage.

First Day of Spring Spring - First Robin Sighting

Hi Friends,

It may be the first day of Spring, with flowers blooming, but here in my area the spring tulips and Iris bulbs are just coming up.

A couple of days ago I spotted the first  Robin in my yard!  That exciting, I now believe spring is coming.

Just sitting enjoying the ray of sun

sitting high on the fence.

Yeah!  First Day of Spring!

Have a great Day!

Decorate With Me - A Very Simple Mantel - With a Few Shamrocks

 Hi Friends,

It's time to dig out my March décor tubs to bring Spring touches to a dreary month here in my neck of the woods of Colorado.  There's still about a foot of snow on the ground and it's cold outside, with my spring décor I try to bring some color into my home.

This year on my mantel, I hung a garland that I made last year, a couple of felt shamrocks I made a while back, I also incorporated my collection of brass candle sticks along with a green depression glass sugar bowl and embellished with white pip berries sprig and eucalyptus stem, a green bud vase that I added white pip berries and a eucalyptus sprig, and in the center a cream color vase from FTD Floral.

Also I have a copy of the Constitutions hanging above.

Until the next project.
