I always say there’s only two season in Phoenix, Spring and Summer.
I grew up in Colorado with the snow and freezing temperatures so when we have “winter”
here in Phoenix, it’s not what I define as winter, it’s more like spring to me. Also, summer
in Colorado is definetly like spring in Phoenix. You still need sweatshirts on a summer night
where I grew up and it’s fabulous, just like Arizona in spring.
Anyway, that pretty much sums up what spring is like for me so to go with that long
description, ha ha, here’s some spring decor in my House of Goodwill.
The fireplace in the family got an update with some flowers and greenery. All winter long I
keep some long white antlers on the mantel and love the look. Changing the decor for
spring and summer makes me look forward to putting the antlers back up there when ‘fall’
comes around.
This week I stopped in to Home Goods with my mom and spotted this turquoise covered
cake stand. I debated for like two seconds when to buy it and just had to have it for the
kitchen island. My kitchen island is very large so I need substantial pieces to place on it.
This is very large and the color is the perfect accent for the white cabinetry.
I placed a vintage glass rabbit, from Goodwill, along with some moss and eggs, inside the
dome. I’m looking forward to putting cakes, sweets and decor on display!
Finally, here’s the kitchen table decor…for now.
I’ve had this set for years and noticed, when I pulled them out of the cabinet, one bowl was
missing! Of course, no one has said a word.
I love changing out the kitchen table centerpiece on a regular basis.
It requires minimal effort and keeps things fresh.
Let’s face it, I need decor to change or I get extremely bored!
Here’s to your Spring day wherever you are!

I live in Charlotte, NC. and my husband works for a NASCAR them. The last 5 weeks have been on the road. We traveled to Atlanta, Vegas, Phoenix and Fontana. I shopped at several of the Goodwill stores out west. I thought of you several times as the selection of milk glass in your city seems to be plentiful. I purchased a few pieces. I also purchased some HULL and McCOY. Beautiful country.

Your island looks so festive and creative! Your turquoise cake plate and milk glass reminded I had these piece in Michigan before we downsized to move to Colorado. So, I guess it’s off to Goodwill and Home Goods I go to replace them. Thanks for the reminder and lovely simple yet festive vignette.
