There are no holidays in sight, it's too cold to decorate for spring, and decorating with the grays and browns of winter has gotten old. To cure the winter blahs that one gets in the in-between season, I pulled out my brightest spray paint colors and some old, very old, thrifted items.First I gave an old frame and a piece of scrap beadboard a fresh coat of bright orange.
Then I painted the legs of a stool with a creamy yellow and finished the top off with gray.
The beadboard is now the ideal spicy backdrop for an average woody wreath.
Faux ranunculus in a crusty pot resting on a silver tray are appropriate for this time of year. Fun Fact: Ranunculus flowers season is usually from January till May. The flowers look so pretty framed in orange with a bright yellow little bird that seems to be enjoying the scene.
Even though the flowers are fake I couldn't resist adding a cheery teal watering can into the vignette, along with an over-sized lantern to shed a little light in the crisp early evenings of this time of year.
I now have a bright, delightful, and perfect In-Between Season porch.

Hooray Gayle! Gayle is a very talented rug hooker and loooong-time reader of my blog. I'm so excited for her. Giving prizes is always fun but when it's someone I "kindda" know (we've never met in person but I saw her on TV), it makes it even more exciting!Thank you Diana from Thirty-One Gifts for hosting this giveaway.
