Bloom Where You Are Planted This March

Spring flowers in bloom

March is a month of stepping into a new season, fresh starts, and a little hint of luck. As Spring starts to peak around the corner, it’s the perfect time to refresh your home, your table, and even your mindset to allow yourself to bloom where you’re planted.  

This month is especially exciting because I'm introducing two stunning new temp-tations patterns that are inspired by this season’s colorful flowers: Pink Hydrangea and Indigo Blooms. The Pink Hydrangea collection was designed based on customer feedback and features watercolor touches, hammered detailing, and is stunning on its own or layered in with your temp-tations favorites.  

The Indigo Blooms collection offers an English garden feel with white and blue botanical details that anchor each piece. It's timeless for everyday use or festive gatherings and has charm that makes every meal feel special. I’ll be sharing more on these collections later in the blog, so keep reading to see how you can style them for your table this spring. 

With St. Patrick’s Day offering a touch of good fortune and spring bringing a sense of growth with brighter days ahead, March is the time to embrace what you have and make it flourish. Read on to see what’s inspiring me this month - from my favorite March recipe to spring outfit ideas and what's filling my cup.

Indigo Blooms is one of my all-time favorite new patterns - whimsical, soft, and romantic. The multiple shades of blue botanical details against the crisp white stoneware brings an English garden vibe to your table, making everyday meals feel extra special.

Moments with Mom

Looking through old albums, I came across these photos of my mom and me, and they stopped me in my tracks. When I was little, the years felt so slow…and now I’d do anything to go back to those moments. Not because of regret, but because of gratitude. 

 My mom always said she wasn’t meant to be my friend when I was young, you don’t need another friend, you need a parent.” And she was right. She gave me guidance, boundaries, and unconditional love first…and because of that, today we share an incredible closeness built on trust and respect. 

Funny how time works. The slow years shape you, and one day you realize they were everything.

Stay tuned for next month's blog! I’ll be sharing more of what I’m cooking, wearing, and loving, and I can’t wait to bring you along.

XO, Tara
