Rossetti - Sancta Lilias 1974
First day of spring 20th march thought this Dante Gabriel Rossetti painting represents today perfectly. Daffodils are the  flowers of Wales and the flower of Spring, A time to throw away bad habbits and have a cleanse, spirtually and literally. find new idea's for around the house and within your life style, even try and re-make something old that you dont want to throw away and turn it into something new!
Or buy something new like some flowers and put into an old vintage vase, there are alot of vintage fairs around this time of the year. Add something special to your home this month along with a special memory!
