It’s becoming something of an annual tradition to attend the yearly orchid show at the Chicago Botanic Garden. The show always runs in February and March, which is the perfect time to escape to the indoor greenhouses for a little warmth and color. With a fairly open calendar this time of year, we always fit in a visit to the orchid show.
In an effort to keep myself accountable, I’m sharing monthly progress updates for my 2019 goals.
I know that it may not look like spring outside yet. But I’m ready to share some spring mantel inspiration with you today. Once we’ve flipped the calendar to March, I’m ready to pack up the last winter decor pieces and switch over to spring. Soft pastels and fresh greenery are a refreshing change of pace after months of gray. I’ve focused on spring mantel inspiration that isn’t Easter themed, so you can display it all season and switch in holiday elements as you like. Happy spring decorating!
I’m excited to kick off my 2019 reads today! Let’s get right into it with the books I read the past couple of months.
Yep, it’s month 23 of my braces as an adult journey. Actually, I’m just a couple of weeks shy of two full years. Spoiler alert: it will be two years before I have my braces off and well past it before I’m “done” – new impressions, retainer fitting, etc. I reached an officially #overit point back in December. I don’t really have words to express where I’m at right now.
