Officially, the first day of North American Spring 2012 is March 20--but hey, it's okay to start celebrating now.
Even if it is dark and chilly, you can make a subtle wardrobe shift, freshen up a room with a pop of color, or generally lighten your mood with a fun accessory.
Banish winter blahs, let the sunshine in, and surprise yourself with a bright splash of spring. Here's a happy list of colorful, handmade things to answer your dreams of sunny days.
Dahlia Earrings
Still swaddled in sweaters? Lighten up with a bright burst of color! These fashion forward, eco-conscious flower disk earrings from THINKNOW are made from reclaimed wood veneer, recycled mat board, and silver paper generated from wind power.
Tropical Flower Tote Bag
You will be ready the moment the sun peeks through the clouds with a pretty sunbreak bag by Sweetnature Designs. Perfect size for a magazine, a pair of sunglasses, and a water bottle--this tote will wait for you pleasantly, looking decorative, until you can dart out to catch some rays.
Tandem Bicycle Pillow
Did your love-hate relationship with the furniture deepen this winter? Do you have a cruel desk chair? A ridiculous loveseat? A sofa that swallows all regret? Throw a pillow at the problem. Specifically, this keep-calm-and-cycle-on bicycle print on linen pillow by Sweetnature Designs.
Turquoise Scarf with Red Branches
Add a stretch of clear sky to your wardrobe with this brilliant handsewn gauze scarf by Sweetnature Designs. Like the promise of spring, this design reminds us of Eastern Redbuds swelling into bloom. Few accessories transition seasons as well as a lightweight cotton scarf. Wear it twisted and tucked into your winter woolens now, and later, in warmer weather lightly over your shoulders.
