Spring Craft Shows in Ohio

By Mercie Hallow

The weather is getting warmer and people are starting to shed off their thick jackets. The days are longer while trees and flowers are starting to show the first signs of life. Yes, spring time is almost here. I can see our quaint little ice cream stand by the corner opening up, after months of closing down due to the weather. It is a cute sight as children in our neighborhood starts to line-up and buy their favorite strawberry ice cream and melon popsicles. Ah, spring. It is indeed again a start of a new and exciting season.

Spring time is a time where people come out of their shells and explore their surroundings. It is also a time where flowers bloom and there are colors everywhere. It is also a time for Fairs, Festivals and Craft Shows to emerge in our neighborhood. Spring time is like an alert where people suddenly rise up from a long period of hibernation. Along with these changes in peoples lifestyle at spring they also have inkling to buy and shop for new items.

A sudden urge to redecorate your home is not new in spring since the colors of flowers serve as inspiration to create a delightful spring color concept. A living room is a great area to paint with citrus colors and redecorate using cheap and affordable furniture pieces. Bargain items from flea markets are very appropriate if you are designing on a budget. Decorating in a budget is a piece of cake as there are excellent ways to do so; you just have to use your imagination in a creative manner.

Celebrate the spring season by redecorating your home and giving new life and identity to every nook and spaces. Give that old armoire a new style by hand painting wooden knobs bought from a flea market. Be inspired and transform a broken chair from a flea market by giving it a fresh coat of spring colored paint and repair it through simple carpentry methods. Give a sofa a new life with beautiful cheap floral fabrics and matching pillows.

Have a look at your nearest craft fair in Ohio and look for furniture pieces and accessories that are wonderful additions to your spring room renovation project. - 20760
