Beating The Drearies

I don't know what it's like where you are, but I haven't seen the sun here lately.

It's been cold, grey and dreary with snow or rain forever it seems.

I need some light and a little bit of green.

So, I made my own.

I turned on the lights, lit some candles and added some green touches to my kitchen as I cleaned.

I burn lots of candles around here.

I've been saving this one for a dreary day and today is that day.

I stuffed some moss in the bottom of this wire candle holder to add a little green.

Yay, some green and some light!

I'm not so fond of cleaning the kitchen, but by switching up a couple of things, it makes it not so much of a chore.

Okay so you've seen the light, now I'll show you some more green.

I love this old army bag.

I switched out the red utensils for some green ones.

I added a few fresh linens with green touches.

And some old ceramic pieces.

I also brought back some of the plants that I had relocated during the holidays and now everything looks brighter and fresher. Taking photos as I go along makes it seem fun, so thanks for putting up with all the pics.

I wonder, does anyone else out there take photos as they clean?

It works for me.

Thanks for visiting. See ya soon.
