Spring at Jaye's House...

Spring has arrived at the Parsons' Home!

My Easter buffet...











The lone ceramic cotton tail on the mantle...




New Springtime guest towels in the hall bath...







Whimsical Easter bunny boxes on the guest room nightstand...








A fresh Freesia bouquet from my husband (gotta love TJs)...






Tulips in full bloom in the backyard...




 


The wisteria over the patio is beginning to bloom...






Other buds a-bloom outside...





Our mini vineyard, "Vinny", has even begun to grow...



And, of course, evidence of spring time spruce-up projects in motion...
We're planning to paint the house this spring, and we're going dark!
After several test swatches and trials, we've decided upon Benjamin Moore's "Kendall Charcoal" with crisp white trim!






The "Clearasil" covered window trim will be glad to have the cosmetic lift, I'm sure!


We're also planning to replace the old deck. It's looking pretty shabby, and not the least bit chic!



So that's what's happening in my neck of the woods this season!
What's going on over at your place?

  1. I know it's a bit late but thanks for sharing this spring update, Jaye. This kind of season is definitely the time for a fresh, new look. Although, I would suggest that you install screens on your windows. Since it's spring time, we can expect pollen dust to scatter everywhere. It would be harmful to your health, especially if you're suffering from allergic rhinitis.

  2. Hi! We too are looking for dark grays for our new home. Happily, in my search I ran across your blog. Do you recall what the two colors above the Kendall charcoal are (on the first paint swatch photo)?
