Hello sweet friends! Today kicks off the annual Spring Home Tours hop hosted by my dear friend Marty of A Stroll Thru Life. You can tour 30 homes over 5 days! Today I will be sharing A Touch Of Green Spring Home Tour. If you are coming over from Stonegable let me say, “Welcome!” Wasn’t Yvonne’s use of organic elements fabulous?
Dining Room
If this is your first visit to Storybook Cottage I am so happy you have come for a visit!
Let’s start the tour in our formal dining area.
As St. Patrick’s Day and Easter are so close together this year a color palette that would work for both was created.
Various shades of green are paired with neutrals and a pop of yellow cheer.
Natural antique linens with creamy Irish lace are such a pretty accent.
Classic spring elements found in the decor closet have been repurposed.
These bunnies were purchased when we lived in Germany 24 years ago.
Classic decor is timeless!
From this viewpoint you catch a glimpe of the living area.
Touch Of Green Spring Home Tour
To the immediate right, is the entry.
Cheery spring elements are grouped together on a tiered tray.
Gracie the doxie always adds a smile to the decor.
The furniture sports white slipcovers perfect for the warmer months.
You can see how the orange brick hearth was transformed with German Schmear HERE.
The mantel is fairly simple this year. A few antique wire baskets decorate the hearth area.
I’m thinking about creating a floral insert for the firebox or maybe even shells for the summer. You can see how the birch inset was made HERE.
Kitchen
The kitchen also carries over the neutral and green theme.
The white bunnies were a dollar spot find last year.
Paper mache eggs are simply decorated with scraps of lace, buttons and paper.
Next week a St. Patrick’s Day tablescape will be created on the kitchen table. This arrangement from a few years ago is still a Pinterest favorite.
I hope you have enjoyed this year’s spring home tour. You can tour this year’s spring garden with Gracie HERE.

Your home looks so pretty, Laura!
Thank you so much Stacey!
It looks lovely and springy, Laura! I love your natural-look bunnies. And the green. You are definitely ready to rock the season!
I rescued my bunnies before the mold people came but I still can’t find my dining table under all the china and other dishes I brought up from the basement before they came. I fear it will be a long time before they all get back down — working one pile at a time, fairly slow, but sure! I long to decorate again!
Hi Jeanie, I do hope that you get the entire process finished soon. It must be overwhelming at times! But it’s a good time to admire all of your treasures.
Gracie is the perfect decor accessory for any season! Love, love, love her! Your home looks so beautiful in all it’s bunny and green glory! Thanks so much for sharing your Spring decor ideas with us all!

Lovely spring home tour, Laura. I have a thing for bunnies so I really enjoyed seeing them scattered throughout your home.
Your spring decor is the sweetest. Perfect for Spring. Hugs and blessings to you.
Your home is simply delightful! I love all the different displays you have created for the Spring season!
Laura, the touches of green for spring are perfect for the season. I especially love your mantel and hearth decor and that beautiful centerpiece near the end of the post–gorgeous! Blessings, Cecilia @ My Thrift Store Addiction
Oh how fun, I love the soft greens and how you joined St. Patrick’s Day and Easter into such a beautiful vignette. Your home always looks so pretty and so inviting, Thanks so much for joining the tours again this season, I love visiting your home.
Laura, the house is just so beautiful, calming, welcoming and creative. Wish it was mine!

Such a beautiful tour Laura! Your German bunnies are amazing, I’d love to find some like those!!! And Gracie is absolutely adorable! Happy spring!
Love all of those bunnies!! Super cute for the new season!
Hi Laura, I’m hopping over from the Tuesday Turn About Party, your home looks beautiful! Everything’s so pretty here… It’s hard to pick a favorite thing, but If I had to pick a fave, it is the way you scrunched up the linen crochet lace edged runner around the bunny vignette that’s on your dining room buffet! So pretty! Happy Spring!

Oh,my, Laura. your home is spot on perfect decorated for your spring/Easter tour! I so enjoyed your classic ideas. Everything works so well together.
I am sooo sorry I have been absent for so long. Had a rough year with health and surgeries but I am trying to get back to reading my fav bloggers again. I have to do it in stages I guess. Thank you for your beautiful inspiration for spring. Just lovely. Big hugs. ♥
Love your touches of green throughout Laura! It looks lovely and bright for spring!
Love the bunnies and all the greenery! Love the view from the living room by the French doors to the dining room too! Simply stunning. And I can see why the last arrangement is still a Pinterest favorite – WOWZA! Happy Easter!
All your green decor is perfect for this time of year, Laura. I love the vignette on the buffet with a touch of bunnies. So nice to see your home dressed up for spring.
