Farmhouse Style Spring Decorating

When I consider farmhouse style decorating for spring, I think of the simple

joys of this season, where new life can be seen throughout nature.

A rustic nest and a few eggs atop some weathered books...

Some whimsical baby birds and a bunny in the windowsill

(that will hopefully catch the kiddos' eyes and imagination...)

Some speckled eggs on Spanish moss under a little cloche...

Burlap eggs and baskets add some texture to these kitchen shelves.

My Dad brought us these beautiful hand-painted eggs (below) back from his travels in Europe. This is only part of our collection! Over the years, our three boys have had many Easter egg hunts with these eggs, as one hides them and the others search for them. The thrill of the hunt! (We flea marketing, yard-salers can relate! :)

The framed felt nest with felt eggs art was a gift from a sweet friend.
