Blooming Into Spring: What I’m Doing This Season

Spring is here, and with it comes a sense of renewal, possibility, and soft moments that feel like a fresh start. I’m excited to share my Spring Bucket List — a mix of simple pleasures, adventures, and slow living that will help me make the most of this golden time.

Spring Bucket List:

1. Press Wildflowers into a Journal
Instead of just admiring flowers this spring, I want to preserve a few of my favorites. I’ll be collecting and pressing wildflowers into my journal.

2. Picnic with Friends at Sunset
There’s something so special about golden hour shared with good company. I’m planning a sunset picnic with friends—cozy blankets, fresh fruit, maybe some sparkling lemonade, and long chats as the sky turns pink.

3. Take a Weekend Getaway to a Nearby City
There’s something refreshing about getting away to somewhere new, even if it’s just a few hours away. Whether it’s a city I’ve never explored or a favorite place with new eyes, a change of scenery always brings new inspiration.

4. Create a Spring-Inspired Photography Series
This season is full of soft light and new blooms, which makes it perfect for capturing moments. I’m planning to create a small photography project centered around spring.

5. Explore Local Farmers’ Markets
There’s nothing like fresh spring produce, so I’m going to take the time to visit local farmers’ markets and discover seasonal treats I’ve never tried before.

6. Try a New Recipe Using Seasonal Ingredients
Spring brings such vibrant produce! I’m looking forward to experimenting with new recipes using fresh herbs, berries, and vegetables that are in season.

7. Start a Morning Journal Practice
This spring, I want to begin a daily habit of morning journaling—a quiet moment with pen and paper before the world fully wakes up. A way to clear my mind, set intentions, and stay grounded in the season.

8. Spring Clean and Reorganize My Space
Spring cleaning isn’t just for your home—it’s about clearing mental space too. I’m going to take some time to refresh my room and closet, creating a more peaceful environment.

9. Visit a Flower Farm or Strawberry Field

There’s something so nostalgic and joyful about walking through rows of blooms or picking fresh strawberries under the sun. This spring, I’m hoping to visit a local flower farm—or maybe even a strawberry field. 

10. Curate a Spring Playlist

Music has a way of capturing a season’s mood, and I’m creating a playlist that feels like soft sunlight, blooming flowers, and windows down on a slow drive. I’ll be adding songs that make me feel light, grounded, and inspired.

As everything starts to come back to life this season, I’m reminding myself that it’s okay to move slowly. This list isn’t about doing it all—it’s about choosing the little things that bring joy, spark inspiration, and help me feel more present.

Here’s to slower mornings, fresh air, and making time for the things that feel good.

What’s on your spring list? I’d really love to hear.

With love,
Camille
