This week's Net Picks focuses on bright, cheery designs that call to Spring! Although we may not experience the dramatic change from winter to the rebirth of spring I can still appreciate what that change inspires!

First of all I’d like to say that Bonnie Christine was a great teacher. Not only was her information very valuable and helpful, she was very sweet and easy to listen to. Even though this is an online course, I feel it’s important, as a teacher, to come off as pleasant, genuine and happy to be sharing your knowledge.
