Oh my friends, I am so excited for Spring that I literally ‘Wet My Plants”! lol!
(notice the wet cement?)
Hubby came home from work one day last week and was so excited to tell me that phrase so I could use it on my next post. He had seen it on a sign at our local nursery. Isn’t it nice when others are looking out for us?
Some of my favorite Spring bloomers. . .Ranunculus, Primroses, and Pansies.
I planted the urns by the garage with a pretty pink and white flowering Kale and some Snapdragons.
I’m thinking that these should last clear into Fall and I can just tuck some trailers in around the edge in May. Of course I will have to keep pinching the Snapdragons back and I will cut off any bloom that comes up out of the Kale.
Now let’s see what else has got me excited for Spring. It rained yesterday, so naturally the umbrella came out. I made it a couple years ago.
Sweet little English Daisies planted in an urn are peeking out from a wire cloche.
I dyed the egg shells with Rit Dye the same time I was dying coffee filters for the wreath hanging on my door.
Pretty faux blooms spill over the edge of the umbrella. They almost look real, don’t you think?
I dipped stacks of the coffee filters in the dye. Afterwards I just threw them in the dryer and they came out in different shades of aqua.
I painted the rustic wooden eggs years ago. The dot theme is carried out with the ribbon on the umbrella.
Both the chair and the moss basket were thrift finds. I recently painted the chair yellow.
When I came home from a get away with friends my daughter Kylee had done the chalkboard art. I love it!
A touch of green grass in a vintage wicker basket. The duck was bought in Salzburg years ago.
Hyacinths planted in a metal pitcher will be transplanted into the garden for next year when spent.
Yup, I’m excited for Spring!
You can see where we have to build up the lawn where we redid our sidewalk that had settled.
Hope Spring has come your way!
hugs,
Jann

Love all the spring flowers and décor around your home! It looks so pretty! Yes - I think everyone is glad to see Spring arriving! I love the pussywillow wreath too, did you make it?
Jann
Your Spring flowers and décor look great.
I'd love to try the flowering kale!
Your front porch is beautiful all decked out for Spring! I love seeing those pretty flowers. It's still too cold for us to have flowers, but Spring is certainly on its way!
It sure looks like your about ready for spring and Easter too, Jann. I love all your spring touches on your front porch. We are never able to decorate outside for Easter here and usually not for spring until later in April. But inside is ready. We have to have signs of spring somewhere to cheer us up with all the snow we're still getting. :) Pamela
I am so glad you Wet Your Plants! I wish that we were getting ready to plant here. In this area of the country we can't plant outside until after Memorial Day-end of May/First of June. xo Diana
Loved this post. Everything has its special touch!! You are amazing, my friend.
Jann!Spring really has sprung for you there - lucky duck!
It's getting warmer here but not quite like yours!
Your projects and plantings look absolutely wonderful, my friend.
Hugs.

Everything is so beautiful and Springy~ You are one talented and gifted lady! Love it all....especially your umbrella! Hugs and blessings, Cindy
All your spring décor is beautiful!! Can't wait to start mine....today is supposed to be near 60 but we still have snow on the ground!

What a lovely and welcoming porch!
Jann I love all of this and I am so making one of these umbrellas next year for spring!! You did such a great job with all your spring touches as always! PINNED!!!!
Cynthia
What a perfectly "springy" porch. Love the umbrella on the window. You have inspired me to get out and decorate my petite porch....well, I will as soon as it stops raining :-)
Hugs,
❤️Ana
Love the blue spring wreath. You create loveliness!
Everything looks so lovely.
You got to love it when Spring is in the air.
Have a lovely week.
Denise
everything looks so filled with spring. We are still cold and rainy here...but it is getting a little warmer every day. Spring comes later up here in New England and slower still on the coast.
Oh my goodness you had me laughing..I almost wet my pants and these days it isn't hard for me to do lol...Your porch is so pretty and I love all your handmade things..I am really crushing on your blue coffee filter wreath!
I love those English daisies! My favorite "new" thing was dying the egg shells and letting them tumble from the basket. So many creative ideas here in one post, I am wetting my plants! (You may get tired of that!)
Yes, spring is here for us too. I'm at work in the garden and replanting urns as well. Lost a lot in our severe freezing temps this winter. The English daisy is a new plant for me. It's sweet! I'll have to look for this one. Thanks for hosting.
Jann, Your Spring porch is so welcoming. I absolutely love the coffee filter wreath and had no idea you could dry them in the dryer - how cool... Love all your pops of color in your flowers - I may get to plant some here this week. The temps are staying fairly steady and I am so ready... Cathy
I love all your wonderful spring creations! I love that you have an extra door to decorate, that's fun!
Jenna
Happy to see Spring bursting out at your place - It is still mostly cold and yucky here. Moe time to gather ideas! I love the bright color of your wreath. I have never made a coffee filter wreath but after seeing this one I don't thing I will hold out much longer. Love her plant choices also. Happy Spring!
