A Simple Spring Entry
Hi, friends! Today I am so excited to be sharing my spring entry! This is my first official spring post this year, and I am thrilled to be saying good bye to winter and hello to warmer temperatures! 🙂

I thought this post would be the perfect excuse to share some updates we’ve made to our entry so far!
To be honest, our entryway has kind of perplexed me since we moved in last fall. Since we have a mudroom that we enter when we come in through the garage, the actual entry space near the front door is pretty small, and it is also an unconventional shape.
It took me a while to find a piece that was the right dimensions for this spot, so when we first moved in I used a dresser that used to be in our boys’ room.
It worked fine, but I really wanted something that wasn’t quite as deep and that looked more like an entry piece rather than something I grabbed from the bedroom and stuck in the entry. 🙂
After searching for a few months (and actually buying a piece and returning it because it didn’t look right!) I finally stumbled upon this little cutie at Joss and Main/Wayfair, and I knew that it would be perfect.
I always seem to crave color in the spring (probably because winters in Pittsburgh are so long and dreary!), so I was excited to add some colorful elements to this space to get it ready for the new season!
I found the round mirror in the Hobby Lobby clearance section, and I couldn’t snatch it up fast enough! It sort of reminded me of this entry mirror…
…that I fell in love with during my visit to the HGTV dream home last year, but it was aqua– SO ME!
I knew I wanted to bring in some floral elements for spring, but since I have a black thumb, faux florals were going to have to do. 🙂 I also have found myself gravitating toward birds this spring, so a few of those snuck their way into the entry decor as well. The mini bird bath is the perfect spot to hold my keys so I don’t lose them! (Not that I lose them often or anything… 😉 )
I’ve been starting up a little collection of aqua glass recently because I can’t get enough of it, and these two pieces were the perfect additions to my stash!
I promise that this little watering can just hopped into my cart at Michael’s. I had no choice. Aqua items just seem to do that with me. That’s what I’m telling Donnie anyway. 🙂
And finally, I added one of my most favorite pillows to up the coziness factor. It was in our bedroom in our last house, but I think it was the perfect colorful addition to our entry here!

I just love the delicate blues and florals! I’m ready to put our Michigan winter behind me and start decorating for spring! Thank you for the inspiration!

Abby — Anyone who gets through Michael’s without something “hopping into their basket” is a miracle worker. I always go for a color of paint or some yarn and come out with 2 or 3 things that stowed away in my cart… HAHA. It happens at Target, too. And IKEA. Okay — Now that the confessional is over, I love the aqua glass! I have a similar obsession with blue glass. Colored glass in general is just so pretty!
I’m so excited for Spring. It will be so nice to see the magical flowers in my yard that come out every year even though I literally do nothing to keep them alive (I’m trying to learn!). The weather has been crazy warm this year!
Lol! So true, Megan! Glad it’s not just me! 🙂 Happy Wednesday!

I agree! 🙂 Thanks so much, Randi! Hope you’re having a wonderful week!

Such a gorgeous tour Abby! Love the pops of aqua and pink and that floral pillow is to die for!
Aw, thanks so much, Carissa! <3

Thanks so much, Kathleen! LOVE that color blue… my fav! 🙂 Hope you’re having a wonderful week!

Great job! This entryway screams spring and sunniness. I’m wishing it would all come a bit sooner. I actually though that you may have done a DIY on your entryway mirror because it looked so similar to the one from the hgtv tour. Great find. Decorative mirrors are a go to in nearly every room for me. They bring in a sense of light and airiness.
I agree, Charlotte! I’m pretty sure I shrieked when I saw it at Hobby Lobby! 🙂 Thanks for your kind words! Happy Friday eve!

That’s a great look for spring Abby! Thanks for sharing 🙂

Aqua color styling looks so fresh and cool! I think it will look great at all seasons.
Thanks so much, Alina! My favorite color! 🙂

So SO pretty Abby! Feeling inspired. I’m an aqua girl too. Great job!
Aw, thank you! <3

Looking at the other pics at the end of the blog, I like yours the best. The others make me feel jumbled and tense. Yours I so light and airy. So clutter-free. It makes me relax and feel peaceful.
Aw, thank you, Linda! You’re too sweet! Have a wonderful week!

Another gorgeous space, Abby!! Can you come to my house? 🙂
Lol! I’d love to, Sarah! 🙂 Thank you!
