Feel the Green

Spring really seems to drag its heels this time of year, doesn’t it? Especially when you live as far north of the equator as I do. Though these late winter days do feel as though they are stretching slightly longer, and the sun is creeping ever so slowly back up further in the sky each day. I’m finding myself dreaming of the green that will surely return soon, but never quite soon enough for my liking.

So I look for ways to trick my cabin-fevered soul into thinking things might *just* happen to start blooming tomorrow by really doubling down on the on shades of green I surround myself with this time of year.

A great way to beat the winter blues has been to greenify my bedroom a bit extra during those long dark nights.

With a few sold yards leftover off after hemming both of the curtains to a less comical length, I figured I could use some new Euro sham covers for my plan old white pillows. They make a perfect resting spot while I read books against my headboard while I pile myself under ALL THE BLANKETS and pretend spring is around the corner.

A few sprigs of greenery was also a good trick I started to help myself limp through winter in recent years.

The absolute best part of greening up the winter blues with the finds of thrift stores in Panama City Beach, FL has been that it’s also helping to keep our planet green, too.
