Seeing as how I am obsessed with nests (obviously) and all things naturally beautiful, there really couldn't be a more perfect holiday for me than Easter.

I can't help but smile when admiring this still life, "Branch of Lemons", by Claude Monet. Its vibrant yellows and weightless quality says it all for spring. Whenever I find something so inspiring, it makes me think about how to incorporate the theme into my home. Planting lemon trees in old terra cotta pots, giving pops of yellow to my decor (via pillows, throws, flowers), or even attempting my own oil painting of a lemon branch are a few ideas this masterpiece creates. What a way to be inspired :)

While searching for inspirational, springtime decor ideas, I hit the jackpot! Not only does this photograph serve as the perfect segue from my last post on Sunburst Mirrors, but its fresh, bright, and natural look is exactly what I needed to be inspired. The detailed mantle is complete with sky high cherry blossoms, a large specimen of quartz crystal, and a gold sunburst mirror (of course). Time to find my own cherry blossoms and attempt to emulate this beautiful scene. Hope you enjoy :)

Below are the materials and step-by-step directions to make approximately 45 hearts.
