Spring is finally here and I’m very excited for this season. I usually don’t get too excited because its usually also allergy season, but this year the trees around our neighborhood have tons of little white flowers on them and they really reminded me of how beautiful spring can be.

NOTE: This post was written a while ago and my allergies have been so bad, lol. Also I’ve been busy with school and life these past few weeks, but I am still working on posts. I want to make sure I’m posting content that I’m happy with and super excited to share!

Today I wanted to do something a little different and post a guide to spring, this is basically like a bucket list/mood board for spring and it was super fun to make so I hope you enjoy it. I will say that this is not my original idea, I saw this on the SHE-THE-SPY blog. I thought it was so cute and I wanted to recreate it in my own style!

Spring bucket list

This is my actual bucket list and I’m honestly so excited to complete it! As I said I’m usually not a big fan, but I’m trying to look on the bright side. Soak up some sun and look for rainbows when it rains. Stop and smell the roses, ya know.

✧ Take photos in a bluebonnet field

✧ Dance in the rain

✧ Put flowers in your hair

✧ Have a picnic with your best friends (social distanced 😉

✧ Perfect the art of the messy bun 

✧ Visit a butterfly garden 

✧ Catch a butterfly 

✧ Paint flowers

Stationary

I’m a total stationary addict, so I just had to have this section in this post!

Bon Voyage Sticker Pack

This sticker pack is so adorable and will add a pop of color to anything! It includes three assorted sheets and a total of 128 stickers.

Potted Plant stickers

These houseplant stickers are equally adorable. They even have a little bit of dimension to them.

Tombow Pastel Dual Brush Pens

I have these and I absolutely love them! The colors are bright and fun, plus I haven’t had any problems with the tip feathering. They write so smoothly and they can actually be used as watercolor paints!

Scotch 15pk Expressions Washi Tape

I love washi tape and this is so cute! The patterns and colors are so vibrant and fun! I want to reach out a grab a few through the screen for my journal.

The Avenue Paper Pad by Recollections™, 12″ x 12″

This paper pad is perfect for scrapbooking and journaling anytime of the year! Even so, there’s something about these designs and colors, that makes me think of Spring!

A7 Paper Bag Envelopes

And these Kraft paper envelopes could add a little bit of spice to any letter. Send a few to your friends and family and decorate the envelope too!

Jewelry

I didn’t mean for all of these to be from urban outfitters, but I found so many cute, affordable ones on their website. These jewelry pieces are fun and will add a little bling to any outfit. These jewelry pieces are also all under $30, I think that that is a somewhat reasonable price. Ive never actually shopped here before, but all these pieces have good reviews and they look so aesthetically pleasing! You don’t need to buy these though I’m just here to bring you a little inspiration for this season of the year.

Enamel post earring set

These studs will add a little bling and color to any outfit! This set comes with 3 studs which look like lemons 🍋 , flowers 🌸, and butterflies 🦋.

Delicate butterfly layer necklace

This layered necklace looks so aesthetically pleasing. The delicate chain balances out the butterfly one so well.

Peace and love ring set

This peace and love ring set will spark joy every time you look down at your fingers ✨.

Zodiac charm layering necklace set

These necklace sets would make a perfect birthday gift. The necklaces themselves are gorgeous, but can we talk about that packaging?! I love learning more about my zodiac sign, its really interesting to see if your description matches you!

Aria stone ring set

This ring set has stones of of green and blue tones with a soft gold finish. They also come in a silver and blush pink finish. You could wear a few of these rings together, wear them by themselves, mix and match them with other rings, they’re pretty versatile.

Hazel mixed earring set

These earrings have a little more bling than the first one. The pastels and rose gold finish work so well together and would compliment any outfit.

Butterfly clips

These butterfly clips recently came back into style. People have found so many fun ways to style these adorable throwback hair clips.

Evie rhinestone charm necklace

This delicate necklace has dainty star and moon charms around the necklace. It gives me very magical, celestial vibes. This necklace would be great for any season of the year, but I’ve been seeing a lot of posts about a pink moon this spring!

P.S. This is actually my 2nd time posting this, the first time I was pretty rushed and just wanted to post it because it was taking forever to edit and perfect it. Then I felt kinda bad, because I had already worked hard on this post for so long and that wasn’t how I wanted to feel when I finally let it go into the internet. Then, I completely edited and refined the post and I’m really happy with how it turned out. I feel so great that this is finally out and I can’t wait to get started on my next post!

I hope that you can find some inspiration and enjoy this season. In spite of allergies, visit a flower field, put flowers in your hair, and have a picnic with your best friends and family or with yourself. Spring only lasts so long, so have fun even if it isn’t your favorite. I hope you are all staying safe and staying positive ❤️ ✨.
