Okay, so I am ready for Spring! As soon as Valentine’s Day is over I start thinking about warm weather, sunshine, flowers budding, grass growing . . . you get the idea. I have shared before that I love the seasons, and I am always ready for the next one a little ahead of time. I especially feel that way about Spring and Fall, those times of the year when the temperatures are getting more moderate.





I am so thankful that retailers are a little ahead of the seasons as well. So, if you are starting to think about what you would like to do as you prepare for Spring. I want to give you a peek at some of the beautiful colors and Spring looks you can put in your home. I am planning to put some of the Spring silk flowers around to satisfy my seasonal anticipation for now. Remember, as you go out there to get some Spring for your own home, it is always fun to get some for a friend as well.

LOVE IT Do you LOVE IT?

1. Hi Deb,

These are all so beautiful and colorful! Such a wonderful addition that one can look forward to adding color to the home. I love silk flowers and live flowers. The difference is that I have to replace live flowers weekly. I don’t mind, but I like knowing that there are silk flowers that are beautiful and as permanent as I want them to be. Thank you for sharing!!

2. Hello Deb,

These are beautiful flowers. I love the vibrant colors. I love any color of flower as long as it’s PINK. :) . Yes, flowers are sunshine for the soul and Spring is my favorite time of year because of the color.
Thanks for a beautiful display of flowers to enjoy and remind us that Spring is not far off.

3. Hello ladies,
I strolled into Homegoods today, and I fell in love. I just love that place. I am in desperate need of a desk for my office. Please help me locate a nice dark desk with a hutch. Thanks

4. It doesn’t seem like Spring is around the corner today. StL is getting lots of ice and sleet.

I must admit I am a huge fan of the silk orchids, although they say that the real ones are easy to grow. It is fun to have the options.

Take care girls! Deb

5. Hi Ed,

We are so glad that you enjoyed your HomeGoods visit. As you can tell we are HUGE fans as well.

We don’t have access to inventory, nor do the stores all carry the same merchandise. My best suggestion would be for you to check out the stores in your area fairly often. New mechandise comes in regularly and we love the fact that you just might find that unique perfect item that is exactly what you have been looking for.

Our other suggestion is not to wait on a purchase thinking that you will go back later. The return policy is customer friendly and it is very possible that your store only received one piece of a specific item and it could very well be gone when you go back.

Enjoy your treasure hunting. You will be glad you took on the quest.

6. I cannot believe you guys really respond back!!!! I am soo glad. Thanks a lot Deb, for the prompt response. I love this interaction. I am a mess. Please give me some pointers on how to become an organized person. Things are all over the place. What can I read to lead me to that direction. I need organizational pointers ASAP.
Thanks

7. Hi Ed,

Interaction is one of the reasons why we are here. I am going to post on my not so organized self soon. One of the things that has helped me is having an extremely organized spouse. LOL When I am determined to try to couquer the clutter bug for myself, two sites that help are: http:organizedhome.com and http://www.homemadesimple.com Both of these websites are filled with great suggestions. I wish you the best with your efforts, I truly do understand the challenge.
