With the snow here in Edmonton seeming to be melting and staying away- it is finally beginning to feel like spring! On a recent shopping adventure, it became really evident that the bright and happy colours of spring are out in full force, with a bit of a twist! Spring always evokes the fresh greens and blues of nature, and this year, a citrus-y and bolder yellow-green is popping up- chartreuse!

These photos were snapped in Crate & Barrel while perusing their new collections, and this painting with a hint of that great yellow-green hue was perfect over a bold blue sofa.

This accent chair is fun and playful with great texture that catches the light and a dark espresso wood finish keeps the piece looking clean and modern. The throw pillow introduces a funky grey pattern, and could also be placed on a neutral sofa   >>>> adjacent to this chair to tie the pieces together.

Another great incarnation of the light and airy feeling of spring is the use of glass in your home decor. Allowing light to       <<<     penetrate, it plays with shadows and is an easy and affordable interest to any room.  Mix different heights and sizes of vases and bowls in earthy greens and blues to infuse a bit of the freshness to your home decor!
