It's getting to that time of year here on the west coast where the crocus are just peeking out of the earth and buds are appearing on the trees. One of my favourite times. The idea of forcing a few branches has been on my mind lately as I long for warmer weather and new things.
Style at Home's March issue has inspired me even more with these beautiful photo's of blossoms against beautiful dark blue backgrounds. (The magazine is available online
here).

The crocus are appearing on this side of the pond as well, Jan! Hurrah for the first signs of spring!
Love the flowers pics - so ready for spring :)
Beautiful post! I plan to try my luck with the video. *fingers crossed*. The husband says I have more of a brown thumb than green, but the plants in my studio still live, and I am SO determined to prove him wrong!!!
I really like this imagery. I'm really into deep hues with a punch of color at the moment. Ab fab.
