is so easy is because <a href=\"http:\/\/www.michaels.com\/floral-and-decor\/seasonal-decor\/850042691\" target=\"_blank\">Michaels<\/a> did most of the work with these shadow boxes. \u00a0They come in a set of three different sizes and already have the hangers attached on the back (I very much applaud this convenience).<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter

was cut basswood board to the size of each box opening and painted them in a pinky peach and blue gray color (I used <a

pushed the the basswood to the back of each box and it held in, though if we wanted extra reinforcement we could add glue to the inside edges of the back of the\u00a0box\u00a0before pressing it in. \u00a0For the third box, I just left it open without a backing.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-11415\"

\/><\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;ve only got a couple weeks before it&#8217;s officially Spring, but I start saying it&#8217;s Spring once the weather warms up, which was a while ago for us here in west.\u00a0 We didn&#8217;t have much of a winter this year at all actually (my winter coat was lonely and sad)\u00a0but I\u00a0always look\u00a0forward to the changing seasons. \u00a0Is it feeling like Spring
