Spring Cleaning

Decided it was time to do a little bit of spring cleaning. I have refreshed the blog header into more of a spring vibe, rather than the previous winter one (even if the weather is not playing seasons nicely!).

I feel the need  to change things around at home and work and here.

For example, I change my open plan living room  twice a year. I am not talking about rearranging a bit of decor clutter. I mean  moving everything around. All the major furniture pieces etc.  Takes a whole day with the Husbands help (i.e to lift and to rewire etc). I have this summer winter division.

By the end of this month I am sure my open plan living room will have undergone this seasonal change. Keeps things fresh and allows a  more thorough clean twice a year. (I tend to vacuum around rather than move everything most of the year lol) I am sure I am not the only one out there that does this?!

I have to laugh because unfortunately I do the same thing with vacuuming.
Your blog looks beautiful by the way, so lovely!
Have a great weekend!

I'm also planning on a new summery header - that can be a project for next weekend. Your new one is lovely!

I love a bit of re-arranging to suit the season. It's the only time things get cleaned under...

I love the new blog header. I also enjoy a good spring clean. Today I have been cleaning my head off. Loads and loads of washing and going through the kids clothes and chucking stuff out. Excellent.
Are we going to see photos of the rearrange?

Very pretty - bravo. Rather than internal spring cleaning, today I did some (probably first time ever) weeding. Tiring but satisfying. It's that time of year, I think! J x

Hi,
The new banner is lovely, inspired by Spring...
sigh, I look outside and here it's raining and it's cold today. Fall is here for us,
have a good Sunday (or is it already Monday where you are?)

Such a sweet banner, I love how you processed it!! Pretty colors.
Nothing like a good spring clean, I have been moving my studio around this last week in preparation for the heat/sun coming in through the windows (which take up one entire wall) for summer. It gets quite hot in my studio so I move everything out of it's way! Thanks for stopping by too oxo
