So fun!

I've had so much fun decorating for Valentine's Day this year! I have been playing with my new toy and cutting both paper and vinyl.

This has been a bit of a work in progress. I'll do a little, then think of or find something else that I think will look good, and add it. So, these pictures are bits and pieces of what I've done so far. I guess that I had better get it finished soon or I will miss having it done for Valentine's Day.


I really love decorating this window in the entryway each holiday.


I took this picture as soon as I got the candy in the dishes... and it pretty much disappeared right afterwards.


I added some red tulle... love it's festiveness. The hearts started out as one long garland, but I decided I liked this look better.


I love these half pint milk bottles. One of them comes from a creamery in Nashville where my Dad worked right after he and Mom married. Yep, not only has my daddy milked the cows, but he has delivered the milk as well!


I found that awesome red and black candle on clearance, and had to have it. It is just so much fun. The white one started out plain, but I jazzed it up with some vinyl.


While the kids where at church activities this week and I was killing time, I found this awesome vase/pitcher at Michaels... on sale!


And this awesome frame at Hobby Lobby... on sale, too! I have a mini subway art piece that I am going to put in the frame, just haven't got it there yet. Also, notice the candy... had to go buy more candy this week, and it's almost gone, too.

Hope you're getting your home ready to celebrate!!

I love it. It's all so fun. I am sad to see the candy gone since I didn't get a piece. I am stealing your red dinner idea this year. Have a great day.
