Simply Suzanne's AT HOME: ranunculus

I crazy love Spring for all that it brings . . . mild weather, gorgeous flowers, and inspiration every where you turn.

Spring is a great excuse to buy EXTRA fresh flowers every week. They're like sunshine to me, and so often inspire my table settings and decor.

My Spring table this year is inspired by all natural elements . . .

patches of tall green grass,

hand-blown brown eggs stacked in a petite basket that was passed down to me by my sweet grandma,

small, white pitchers filled with pastel pink & PEACH ranunculus,

and one of my antique French bread boards.

I'm in love with its simplicity . . .

a soft color palette

all natural elements

and a collection of mismatch white dishes

I added a few fun and whimsical touches that I know our little ones and my niece and nephews will love . . .

a large golden egg

and bunny-shaped rose water sugar cookies tied with ribbon at every place setting.

I hope that this season's bounty finds it's way onto your table settings . . . and into your home, too!

Happy, Happy Spring!

This post is a great example of why I'm behind on sharing our daughters' candy themed birthday with you. I get side-tracked with posts like this one. Instead of finishing one of the many, many posts that I already have in my que, I get excited to share simple, beautiful things with you, like these flowers.

I love flowers. Love them. Love. Love. Love.

I buy fresh cut flowers every week, and have since I was in my mid-twenties when I visited our local Farmer's Market every Saturday for fresh produce . . . and, of course, flowers. It was always a special treat after a long, stressful week.

With Spring knocking on our door, the market is full of gorgeous flowers . . . so I might have bought a few more than normal this week. Oh boy, wait til you see the white & creme colored daffodils I bought. Sigh. Dreamy.

Somehow I talked myself into 'taking a break' from making party decorations (it's our youngest son's birthday this weekend), so that I could take photos of the pink ranunculus I bought yesterday.

They are so pretty, especially when the morning and afternoon light shine on them. Have you treated yourself to fresh cut flowers lately? I hope so!

Ok, back to making decorations.

Have a beautiful day! Enjoy!
