SPRING SPRING SPRING!!!!!!!!!!

20th of March at 11:02 GMT (make an alarm)

Here are some ideas how you can celebrate this best day of the year and the upcoming season. Hope you have a ball.



  • Spring cleaning (clean everything! behind, under, the tops of the wardrobes, wash your curtains and windows, rugs and carpets, air your linen and put away your winter blankets and color sheets, covers and pillowcases-making space for the spring colors and decorations) 
  • Give it a spin for your spring cloths, sheets and what you may use. Put scented water in your iron and iron away. 
  • Give it a go to some creative organizing. (clean you closet from the winter cloths, things that are worn off and might not have the use for the next winter, give it away. In Malta, there is an ASPCA second hand shop, drop it there. Get post-it papers, 7 of them and make a week plan. Get yourself a recipe book and start collecting your favorite recipes and documenting dinner and tea parties. Also get a garden journal.)
  • Buy lavender and lay it around the house. Hang it in the kitchen, put some on the night stand and don't forget a bouquet for the bathroom. They are pretty and relaxing.
  • Make a big spring bouquet for your dinning table. 
  • Grow your own Easter basket grass 
  • Make and hang a bird feeder
  • Research and plant flowers that attract butterflies
  • Plant a herb garden 
  • Listen to spring music.
  • Take a spring equinox walk (when the Sun crosses directly over Earth's equator and the day and the night are equal length)
  • Have a picnic  
  • Make spring rolls
  • Make a fruit cake
  • Do some art in pastel colors
  • Make a kite and go fly it
  • Paint your drive way
  • You and your family make a spring flag, hung it and decide on the spring anthem. 
  • Make your own sunshine (round your kids and let them paint the biggest, most colorful suns and hang them high up on the east walls of the bedrooms)
  • Get a new spring purse, and a dress and shoes.
  • Send some sunshine to someone. (make a box and fill it with sunshine: a poem, yellow lollipop, yellow flowers, a painting of a sun, a little bottle of vanilla scented oil, pick yellow macaroons, yellow socks, a yellow scented candle, a jar with a book with a yellow color, a yellow scarf, yellow earrings, yellow nail polish or yellow eye shadow, a lemon, a yellow mug, a poster with a spring theme and an invitation to a spring dancing party or a spring tea party where you'd be drinking 'sun tea'. If a yellow is a dull colour for you, do it in pink, and green, and red and orange,whichever reminds you of spring) 
  • Read/ study al' fresco
  • Hunt for rainbows
  • Paint your nails in spring colors, you've got 20 of them
  • Celebrate Sundays with ice cream
  • Organize a dance party 
  • Write letters to friends and family that live far away
  • Volunteer 
  • Start your exercise for the beach babe body 
  • Rent bikes/ bicycles and go for a ride
  • Make your own ice-tea (cook a lot of your favorite tea, let it cool, bottle it and put in the fridge over night)
  • Do some spring photography
  • Hand wash your car


Wishing you the best Spring yet, eventful, colorful, happy, filled with ideas and quality times with friends and family. A prosperous and fertile season!
