Spring Blooms in The Pages of BHG

Leave it to Stephen Orr, flower fanatic and garden guru, to brighten our gray February days with a beautiful March issue of Better Homes and Gardens.  It’s easy to fall in love with color and we’re especially fond of springtime hues like pinks, yellows, purples and blues.  And nothing gets our spring fever going than flowering bulbs that we can grow inside while Old Man Winter overstays his welcome.

Stores like Terrain and Trader Joe’s are bursting with potted bulbs which you can transplant into pretty vases and vessels.  Line them up on a windowsill or down the middle of your dining room table and dream of spring days to come.

And while you’re getting your hands dirty, why not try a craft project?  We think these DIY marbleized terracotta pots are charming when paired with daffodils and would make great Easter presents for family and friends.

How are you counting down the days ’til spring?
