I totally wanted to do a linky party with pictures of everyone’s Christmas decorations that are still up.
We could show our wreaths and our garlands and our red bows and our random ornaments hung from chandeliers.
Wouldn’t that be fun?
But then I realized that I would be the only one there.
Because you are amazing.
And so much more organized than me.
And you took down your wreaths in December…..and moved onto decorating for Spring…..because it’s umm…March.
So let’s have a Spring Fling linky party instead!
Let’s start with some fun projects my incredibly talented friends (people who would never have a Christmas wreath in sight) have been sharing over the last few weeks.
Here’s a recap of all the ideas, recipes, crafts and home decor created just for Spring!
Heather’s Bird’s Nest Cupcakes in Mason Jars are absolutely amazing.
Vanessa‘s daffodils can brighten both a table and a mantel made me smile.
What a great centerpiece for a Spring table.
Mary Beth, of Cupcakes and Crinolines created this beautiful Lemon and Blueberry Butter Cake!
Jennifer, of Dear Lillie, put together this incredible Spring Tablescape.
Wait until you see the tulips!
Kristin, of My Uncommon Slice of Suburbia, made a welcome Spring sign.
Kristin, of Simply Klassic Home, added color and whimsy with this Easy and Frugal Spring Centerpiece!

Shannon from Fox Hollow Cottage repurposed a pillow sham for this sweet Spring Mantel.

Debbie from Debbiedoos put together a round-up of 10 Fabulous Spring/Summer Crafts.

Heather from Setting for Four gave us some great ideas on How to Decorate a Mantel for Spring.


Maryann from Domestically Speaking made a Blue and Green Spring Wreath from hydrangeas and burlap.

Courtney from French Country Cottage has the most incredible photography and inspired me with her classic Spring Blossoms.

Jennifer Rizzo of the Jennifer Rizzo Blog (who I just spent the weekend with in Chicago) made this fun Easter rabbit with her kids.

But enough about us!
We all want to see YOUR Spring projects!
And the best part?
When you link up your projects…..they show up on ALL 13 blogs!
So let’s get started! I can’t wait to see all your fun projects!
And thanks so much for joining the Spring Thing Blog Hop and Linky Party!
PS Round Two is HERE!!!!!!
And my project is up today!
And you know I think you’re amazing. 🙂
So f you have a second…..go over to the East Coast Creative Blog and vote for your favorite project (which I’m crossing my fingers is mine)!
But it’s anonymous.
You won’t know which one is mine. And the bottom three go home.
Yikes!

Now do you see why I’m nervous and telling you you’re amazing and shaking in my anonymous shoes.
So here goes nothing…..just click here and vote.
Fingers crossed.
You aren't alone I just took my decrepit Christmas wreath off the door yesterday, and I haven't begun to decorate for Spring yet! I'll be looking through the links for some inspiration, now if I could just find a little extra time there too.....
I have been voting, hope I have been geting it right! And....I bought egg-shaped doilies at the dollar store...they would look so cute on the canning jars with twine! (which I also have!!!!!( Horray for an after school project today. Boo for having to leave to go in 20 minutes :(
My bonus room is still full of Christmas things to put away...waiting for the "attic man" to re-organize the attic...Loved this Spring Thing Party!!
Wow, what an array of inspiration. So fun checking them all out on this gloomy NC morning. I never remember to link up to parties, so I was excited to see this one, but alas is the place to link up hanging somewhere on the door next to my Christmas wreathe? It seems to have disappeared. (And yes, hosting Tasty Tuesday link up myself, I know this has happened to me too often. It could be my wifi?)
Found it on another site, so it must have been my wifi or lack of morning coffee. :)
Oh boy! I can't wait to see all the "spring inspired" treats!!
Thanks so much for hosting ladies!! Looking forward to browsing through all the links!!
I vote for your idea for leftover Christmas decorations. Us underachievers need support, too.
Whew, so glad I'm not the only one who still has a pile of Christmas hanging around! I'm hiding mine inside a lampshade in the hallway, does that even make sense?!! And I'm dying over your project, yes we can SO tell which one is yours!!! You're a clever one, missy :)
Ok, let's be honest here...while my decorations are down, yesterday I just realized two boxes are still sitting out in my lower level family room! Oh, the shame! Guess I haven't been in a hurrying because it's still snowing here...another 4"! Yikes! I voted for you, or what I thought was you! Good luck! ;)
Oh this is so fun! I'm so inspired to get creative.
thank you Kariann and all the ladies for hosting this Spring Fling. It's icy, slushy, sleety and cold here today so all of these links are such a breath of Spring air. xoxoox
We are having a blizzard today so my holiday ice skate wreath on the mud room door unfortunately still screams Winter just like everything else in the view from my windows. Bliss
What a great party! Thanks so much for hosting! Life to the full, Melissa
Thank you all so much for hosting such a fun party! Looking forward to browsing all the links!
I could have joined you with the leftover Christmas decor - wreath on my front door ;) Party for two?! Heading over to vote - wonder if I'll be able to guess which one is yours this time?
I just found a Santa flying above my laundy room door. He has to go to the attic. He can be greatful for his tropical vacation in my attic over the summer. Going to go vote.
Love all these spring things to check out! Miserable out here, with another storm on the way. Ice pellets! yikes, glad I don't have to drive in it. On my way to vote, then will check out some of these links! Thanks for hosting! Debbie :)

My snowmen are still on display, although I took down my "Please snow,I'm a teacher" sign last week. But I hear a big storm is coming our way, so those snowmen will look right at home tomorrow. Love your site!
Thanks for the lovely features and for hosting, & God bless!
Well, let me first say that the Spring Thing is amazing, it will take me a few days to get through all the links. I also voted, it was tough, so many amazing knock offs. Hope you make it through another round! Patty/BC
It was lovely to meet you at the Midwest Meet Up. I just voted in TCWS and looked for the "bigger than Pottery Barn" entry. I think I know which delightful project you did. Fingers crossed for you! Michele PS We'll be driving through Kentucky this weekend, so I'll be looking for treasures on the side of the road. Hooray!

Putting away my ornaments this week. I shoved them all in one big box and stashed them in a corner of my dining room. And talk about being popular....I was link 632. Girl, you got some friends. And I'm not waiting 3 days to link anymore.
I laughed sO danged hard~ not AT you but WITH you--'cause I was determined to beat "Spring" ~ by a whole. 2. days! Even the real. LL. kid's-tree. was sTill. uP. Yikes. In mY defense--the snow keeps coming~just like it's still winter. Catherine
