Oh happy day! It’s spring home tour day, and what could be better than the fact that spring is just around the corner? I don’t know about you, but I experience an immediate mood boost as soon as the weather begins to warm and the grass begins to green.
I’m thrilled to be participating in the “Hello Spring” Home tour organized by the lovely Carrie, from Lovely Etc. She invited a fun group of bloggers to get together and invite you in for our spring home tours! Be sure to check out the lineup and a chance to enter a $400 giveaway at the bottom of this post! Whoot!
I actually began decorating for spring by un-decorating… I took all of my usual decor off of the hutch in the dining room and left only the window frame and antique sign. I’m quite happy with the simplicity of it all. Sometimes simple is best, no?
I made this easy eucalyptus centerpiece and arranged my pretty dishes all around it. The result is a cheerful table that looks good enough to eat at. (Ironically, we never eat here. We always eat at the kitchen island.) 😉
This is my recently finished (well not really finished, but finished for now) modern farmhouse kitchen. I painted allllll of my oak cabinets this winter, and it was quite a feat.
I’m so happy to be done and to be starting spring with a fresh, bright new space!
Moving on into the living room, more sprigs and greenery announce that spring is here. I honestly haven’t really done that much to decorate for spring this year. Just some springy plants (all fake) here and there. 😉
Truthfully, I feel a little bit like a slacker. I have no Easter bunnies out, no cute little decorated eggs…I should probably step up my game a little bit. 😉
We’ll end our tour with a little bit of dog cuteness. This little girl drives me a nuts sometimes, but she sure is cute in pictures…
As I mentioned above, I’m taking part of the “Hello Spring” Home Tour + $400 Giveaway with some fantastic bloggers! Check out all of the tours, and enter for your chance to win some $$$ below!

This is all absolutely gorgeous! I loved every little aspect. I enjoyed the fact that it wasn’t overly done, but very simple. It made it that much more beautiful.
Thanks so much, Brooke! 🙂

April your home is beautiful!!! Love your kitchen especially the stools! Your tablescape is full of spring vibes too! Great tour and beautiful home. Pinning and sharing!
Thank you, Stephanie! 🙂
Love those barstools! Seriously though, you have a perfectly fresh and welcoming house. Love it.
Thank you, Ashley! I love them too! 😉
You have such a beautiful home April! That kitchen of yours is stunning! and all the small touches of spring is perfectly done.
Thank you so much, Deb! xo
It’s funny that you said maybe you better step up your game with the eggs and bunnies. Actually, what I love about your spring house tour is that it doesn’t have all that stuff but it doesn’t need it! It’s perfectly beautiful just as it is. Can I ask what paint color you have on the walls in your family room?
Thank you so much, Valerie! It’s the first time I actually feel the same way. My house is finally at a point where maybe I just kind of like it the way it is, and maybe I don’t feel the need to add all of the extra stuff. You’ve kind of just said how I feel! Ha! The paint color is “Vapor Trails” by Benjamin Moore. xo 🙂
Hello April,
I am enjoying the beautiful pictires of projects and I’m so glad I signed up for your emails. However, your posts are difficult to see because of the large teal coored rectangle that says “recycle more.” It takes up a full 1/6th of the screen, blocking your post. The little adds I can “x” out of but not this one. It’s blocking this comment box as I speak and I can’t see everything that I am typing. Hope it can be fixed! Thank you so much!
Thank you for the feedback, Lori! I don’t see that, but I will pass what you’ve shared with me along to my ad agency. I appreciate it! xo
Wow, your home is so cozy and inviting. Digging your style too!!! Well done!
It’s beautiful! I love your dining room and i can only imagine how long it took to paint those cabinets in the kitchen. Totally worth it though!
So lovely! Your photographs are stunning, as always, and your home looks so fresh and crisp and homey for spring. Amazing styling, friend!!
Looks great! I love the blue and white dishes….and of course your adorable pup 🙂
Such a beautiful tour April! Your entire house just feels so bright and cheerful! Thank you for linking up to our Pretty Project Party this month 🙂
Thank you, Sarah!
So pretty!
Pinning and sharing on the blog today… I can’t wait to see what you link up this week!
XO
Breathtaking! Love it all.
Hello, I love your design aesthetic. So chic and welcoming at the same time. Can I ask where you got the frame with the flower/burst design in the center (on your mantel)? Thank you~
Thank you so much! That Dahlia Mirror is from Wayfair! 🙂
