Despite the fact that we haven’t yet hit the end of January, this balmy, rainy weather has me feeling all things spring. (What happened to winter??) It appears the folks at West Elm are on the same wavelength, as they’re hosting a “Spring Social” next Wednesday, February 6 from 6-8 p.m. at Mockingbird Station.

During the two hour event, you’ll be able to chat up a cadre of local florists, stylists, and tastemakers (including the immensely creative peeps from Bows + Arrows) as they dispense inspiring floral and gardening advice and ideas… Plus, while you’re there, you can peruse West Elm’s stellar new gardening collection (think brightly-hued water hoses, sculptural containers, heirloom seeds, and handsome garden tools).
