Bohemian chic spring home tour

I am so excited to be participating in Marty's spring home tour with a group of wonderful bloggers again this year.  If you are coming over from Laura's beautiful home at Inspiration for Moms, welcome! 

Sweet Saint Patrick's Day flowers for Balsam Mountain Preserve

I had the opportunity to add a little Irish flair at Balsam Mountain Preserve's Boarding House for the Saint Patrick's Day dinner tomorrow night.

Making Spring wreaths for an amazing house

I had the opportunity to make Spring wreaths for the *most* amazing house of friends at Balsam Mountain Preserve. 

Pretty Spring table

First, I have to thank you all for helping me out with my dying succulents! What great suggestions y'all had for me. I can't wait to get a few more and try again. 

Now, on to this pretty spring table. After the Valentine's Dinner at Balsam Mountain Preserve, I had 16 flower arrangements to do something with, so they sat on my back porch all week. Luckily, it was cold, so they kept beautifully. I could not let them be wasted, so after sending a large arrangement to the owner and one to my mom, I rearranged a few of them and set a table in my dining room. 

My succulents are begging for help.

 I love succulents. Even though they're "trendy" -- I still love them. And cacti. I have always had an affinity for cacti, and loved growing them when I went through my "Southwest" phase in the late 80s early 90s.
