Cupid is at it again...

After a rainy and dreary January, I had to get some fun, bright Valentine's decorations up. My garland from last year disappeared, so I had Kayti help me make some more. I still want to do something to hang from the mantel, but I don't think it's going to happen any time soon. I had fun making a few new things for this year, though.

We made this banner during Stamp Club this month, and I knew it would be perfect in the entryway

The full view of the mantel

Candy! And Kayti made the "artwork" in the frame

Candles, and fun fabrics

I saw this idea, or one similar to it, on pinterest, and had to make my own version. It is all stitched... the lines on the sewing machine, the lettering and heart by hand

Kayti made the fun heart chains

L-O-V-E blocks... made from a 2x6

More heart chains, hanging in the dining room
What fun decorations are in your house this year? What are your plans for Valentine's Day? We will have our traditional family Red Dinner. The kids have requested lasagna this year. Happy Heart Day!

That ornate black frame is to.die.for!! I have never seen the paper chains done with hearts, love them. I love making the heart cinnamon rolls for heart day breakfast and we all plan to go out to the movies that night... THE VOW for Shawn and I , and a less lovey dovey movie for the kids, grin.

So cute, Kim. I don't have any Valentine's decorations. I guess we just don't live each other that much at our house. (Just kidding. )
