Spring Bucket List 2017

I never knew I'd be making a Spring bucket list someday but I believe the most traumatic experiences put you in touch with the most unique aspects of your personality. I was on a very challenging trip, away from home, let's just say it was a 'not-too-pleasant' adventure. There was chaos, panic, and fast-paced madness that induced an emotional wreckage of nerves. Now that I am back, I intend to enjoy the slowness of things. I can even sit and watch the grass grow - I trust myself on that one. 
March 20, 2017 - June 20, 2017

I actually bought lemons - as if life has not been giving me enough - because somewhere in my mind I want to make some lemony dessert. 
Are those monks in the photo? I got it from Google Images. They sure do look like monks. Anyway ... I do have plans to visit the Cherry Blossoms (Japan's Yoshino trees) this year unless they plan to shed early.
I am not an outdoorsy person. I am such an indoors-y person that I was thinking of making an artificial little garden somewhere inside the house! Imagine! But I do wish to sit outdoors this Spring and have my chai. 
My wardrobe needs emergency attention! Hijabs (scarves) need to be color-sorted, clothes need to be color and occasion sorted - go figure! Warm stuff needs to be transferred to the stow away closet for next winter. Phew! 
I like putting up little ensembles of the season in different areas of the house. It creates a welcoming, seasonal feel and keeps depressing vibes away. It gives me an opportunity to create little artsy wonders. 
I'm digging up the floral prints and scooping out some classy jewelry pieces fit for Spring. 
What are your Spring plans? Let me know in Comments below.

  1. YAY YOU ARE BACK, ABBIE! I've missed you so much. I'm looking forward to spring too, although I can't say I have any Spring goals. Maybe, I'll clean? LOL

    1. I love you yar! I am coming back to read your awesomeness! Haha, 'maybe' you'll clean. I have created enough biohazard in my closet and before I am kicked out of the shared bedroom I better move.

    2. I am so glad you are back! I don't mind surface cleaning, I do it all the time. But the kind of cleaning I hate is that deep cleaning that is done in Spring. Moving furniture, getting on your knees. UGH. Any ideas where you'll be moving? ;)

  2. Sipping tea in the garden is an amazing feel, especially I love to have the cuppa in my backyard watching my birds flying around. Summer just started here but I already stored some floral prints in my spring summer collection. Nice colorful post. I love that spring decor idea. It's cute. :)

    1. Hey Meera! Thanks for visiting! You have birds too? That's fascinating. I am so lazy I can't be trusted to keep birds for pets! I hope to find photos of them on your blog.
