As January ended & February began I realized that my mood was being greatly effected by the lack of sun here in Michigan this winter. I had never really noticed this in me before, but there was one day last week where I just started crying for no reason & I just felt depressed, but the next day when the sun came out it washed all that away & I felt like a new person. I’m not a warm weather person, but I realized that the lack of sun had an effect on my mood. To combat this I ridded our whole farmhouse of winter decor & brought just a teeny tiny bit of spring into parts of it…
We got these sweet little faux herb planters in at the shop & I knew I had to have some to bring life to our dining room. I started with a tablecloth that I folded up to make it a runner from Magnolia Home. On top of that I put a rustic terrarium that I found on one of my picking adventures. I don’t think it’s old, but I do not know where it’s originally from. I did add some that I love at the bottom of this post. If you are looking for some potted greenery I got you covered [HERE]. I filled the terrarium with some of the potted herbs & left some around the terrarium as well. Jut a subtle and easy way to bring spring in just a tiny bit in February.
I know I’m not the only one who’s mood is effected in the long winter months, & I have to tell you that by bringing in some spring into our farmhouse it really brightened my mood a lot. You should try it! What do you do to keep your spirits up in the winter? I would love to hear from you in the comments below, on Facebook, & on Instagram.
