Since my last blog post was all about the month-to-month baby milestone blankets, I thought why not make a Part Deux: Spring Edition!

I like to add personality and get creative with the month markers (the item you use to circle the number of month you baby is), the sky is the limit on what you can use, and I personally like to throw in relevant items... like mini pumpkins in the Fall, ornaments for Christmas, or candy hearts for February.
Although I've seen some darling month markers for sale, I think it's unnecessary to spend money on them when you can easily find things around your house to use. From front door wreaths to vintage picture frames, I've found all kind of fun things laying around to use each month.
I went through my house and picked out a few items to show you how gorgeous common items can be to mark your month on your milestone blanket. All of the items were things I already owned, and almost all were less than $15.
