Think Spring.....

As Lily (my vintage dress form), in her "Spring Apron", greets people down at The Red Dresser, I hope that she helps people "Think Spring"........ 
 
 
 I just looked ahead at the weather report and it looks like possible snow most days right up to Palm Sunday.  We can hope that spring-like weather will appear before Easter.  If not, we can add a little color with our Easter outfits - they'll be a nice contrast against the white snow.  :) A nice "Spring Apron" in the kitchen while fixing Easter Dinner wouldn't be bad, either.
 
I'm going to "Think Spring" - it just feels like it's time.

Spring Ahead......

We're suppose to "Spring Ahead" with our time early Sunday morning - set our clocks ahead by one hour.  That's telling me that Spring is near - at some point the snow will melt and things will begin to burst forth with new life and bring beautiful color into our world.  I'm looking forward to that.
 
That sounds like good timing for some Spring Aprons, too - bursting forth with bright colors.  With Easter coming at the end of the month  - brunches and dinners to cook, baking that needs to be done - how better to get into the celebration than to be found in the kitchen with a new Spring Apron.  :)


(the aprons look baby pink and blue in the pictures, but they really are coral and turquoise)

These aprons will be headed to The Red Dresser this afternoon.  One is coral and the other turquoise - both made of a narrow chevron fabric with layers of ruffles, pockets and a floral pin in coordinating fabrics.

I'm ready - let's "Spring Ahead"..............
