Country Sampler

Hop TO IT!

-

Bring spring into your kitchen with a vibrant variety of seasonal colors, outdoor elements and whimsical decor.

PATTERN PLAY.

Introduce a variety of prints and patterns in bold colors by way of signs, linens, bows and dishware. Gingham, trellis, toile and floral motifs fit the bill and are one of the easiest ways to breathe new life into a room just emerging from winter hibernatio­n.

BASKETS OF BLOOMS.

Stuff seasonal flowers and greenery into similar-sized woven baskets, and then hang the baskets from a pot rack to create an elevated kitchen garden.

CUTE CHARACTERS.

Bunny and chick figurines are decorating staples at this time of year, so make a point to incorporat­e a few of these endearing creatures into your arrangemen­ts. Or, create a larger theme by displaying signage, porcelain figurines, cloth and papier-mâché dolls, and printed linens featuring your favorite springtime critters.
