Forcing Spring and My Toile Find






I know, I know I am shoving spring in your face, but the weather has been wonderful here. I feel for all of you in the midwest and east that are dealing with the ice and snow. But I can't help myself. 

I found these paperwhites in Home Depot the other day and just had to buy them. I had found the perfect metal planter for $5.00 the other day and just had to do something with it. So, yes I am forcing spring. 

This is the toile valance that I had found on my great adventure. There are tabs that it hangs from but it would hang to low if I hung it that way, so I ran the rod through another part of the curtain and it looks better.

Sure like your toile valance. I never did get some bulbs to force. Last trip to HD, I forgot to look for them. Be sure to take pictures when yours bloom. You are not forcing Spring, just making Winter a little more pleasant.

I'm forcing one lonely amaryllis. I got a late start on bulbs this year so only got the one. It's doing pretty good right now but I'm sure with my brown thumb I can change that....lol.

Thanks for visiting me. I didn't think I could knit socks either but I am and it's not near as hard as I thought it would be. You really should give it a try. I'm having a blast!!!!
