Some people cosy up in winter and start thinking more about their homes but for me spring is when I want to play homes goddess. I happen to live with two house rabbits and in spring they are noticeably bouncier (and fluffier) too. This spring I bought them a new bed to chew - it's the Countrywide Fleece Cushion Dog Bed. Harrison Rabbit and Gloria Rabbit adore it and it's a lovely new addition to living room.  

Daffodils shout spring, and I always pick up a pounds-worth when I do a shop. Out comes my favourite hen vase and in go the daffs. Perfect. 

Next comes the half head of highlights - I go as blonde as I can manage in spring and feel all 'Marilyn'! Fabulous.

At work, allaboutyou.com has a wealth of spring themes to help keep me feeling uplifted. I adore our spring yellows home buys gallery and our spring bouquets.
