Ways to get into the spring spirit


Spring is one of my favorite times! I love to open my window for the first time since September, and watching the sun come out earlier and going down later. But currently, we're all stuck inside, so most of the spring things we're used to doing like going for long walks in the sunshine with our friends, or celebrating Easter with our family, we are unable to do. So this list will hopefully get you into the spirit of spring!

1. Do Some Baking
From cookies to cakes baking is one of my favorite ways to get into the spring spirit. You can make some sugar cookies and decorate them with pastel icing, or bake a lemon or carrot cake with cream cheese frosting and decorate them with eggies my favorite Easter treat!


 2. Craft

 This one is super fun! You can felt or knit. Last year my mom and I found a pattern to knit little egg decorations, it was so cute! If you have styrofoam eggs you can felt on them with pretty egg designs, you could also actually dye some eggs and put them out around your room! You can also needle-felt some Waldorf inspired fairies, which I really enjoy doing!

3.Wear Bright Colors

 This one might not be for everyone but I find that wearing bright lighter pastels makes me happy!  This is also a good time to go through your closet and get rid of any clothes that don't fit you or you just don't like, I especially enjoy the Kon Marie method, in which to keep only what sparks joy! You can also put away any of your winter clothes and take out your summer clothes!

4. Read Spring Classics

 There are so many books that we have read since I was a baby, that we still own and I still enjoy reading. Books like Peter Rabit or other Beatrix Potter books, some Brambly Hedge, all of these books are so sweet and I really enjoy reading them.

5.Clean Your Bedroom

We've all been staying in our bedroom more than we usually do, so it's probably starting to look a little messy, this is a perfect time to do a good spring clean! I did this last week and really enjoyed it, I know cleaning is, not for everyone, but it will make your space a lot better. I took down my curtains and cleaned all my sheets blankets, my pillow covers... everything! I moved my bed aside to vacuum, and the amount of dust...ew! I also took that time to go through all my stuff under my bed, and I have to say it feels a lot lighter in there!

 6. Get Outside

 If you have a backyard or a trail nearby with fewer people, go and take a walk it will not only feel good to have the sun on your face, but it will also get you moving!

7. Get in Touch With Relatives And Old Friends

 Now is a good time to catch up with all those people you want to! Whether it's your great grandparents or your old neighbor, it's always good to talk!

Mermaid swimming

Image
This past weekend I went swimming with my mermaid buddy Viktoria from Superior Mermaids! But we didn't just swim we mermaid swam! Viktoria had taught me how to mermaid swim a couple of years ago and she's an amazing teacher here's her link   https://superiormermaids.wordpress.com/ I chose to wear my blue tang tail (I also have a clownfish) and Viktoria wore her monarch butterfly! If you wanna buy a tail here is the link for where I get my tails  www.finfunmermaid.com but there are many other brands. Viktoria and I did a lot of swimming and practiced are somersaults, tail flaps, bubble ring and laps. There are many different swimming styles to do with a tail!  Mermaid tails are so much fun! They are way faster then normal swimming plus you feel so magical in them! You can also swim in the lake or ocean with your tails, but it's FAR too cold for this mermaid to be swimming outside right now. There were also many little magical children awing over our tails! A li...

What I've been up to!

Hey! How are you? I am good and have been keeping busy and safe! So I just thought I'd let you know what I’ve been up to! For starters I’ve started a bullet journal! I have been debating it for a while, and finally decided to just do it. The theme I used for May was colourful flowers! Inspired by Amanda RachLee’s bullet journal setups! I have a habit tracker with things like Journal, Vitamins, and Reading! I also have a Mood Tracker, so each day I colour in a flower with a colour from the mood chart, red is the saddest and yellow is the happiest! There is also a weekly spread in which each morning I write down what I want to get done that day! Overall I highly recommend starting one, it’s the perfect way to add creativity to your planning! I have also been working on my felting business. I was originally planning on opening an Etsy store. This time last year I was getting ready for my first ever craft sale. But because of Covid 19, this year it was cancelled. So I thought to ...
