Keep Calm and Love On

Last year I went crazy with Valentine decorations.  I've done a few thing this year, but I don't have room to do too much...but I couldn't pass up this cute printable.  I found the vase at Michaels on sale for $1.09 and the flowers at the dollar store.  

Hanging doilies

I recently decided that my dining room need more pizzaz with my decorations.  Enter 3-d hanging doilies.  I think they are lovely.  

 They add just the right touch, don't you think?

Our Mailboxes

I saw a cute idea on pintrest.  I already had some plans cooking in my head, and then they were elevated :)  I got these cute tin mailboxes a few years back at Target.  We've used them on Valentines Day for the girls little treats and cards.  but I wanted them spruced up.  Enter my idea, and pintrest. 

Here is how sad and lonely it looks plain. 

Add just a bit of vinyl, and a cute little stand...

I also switched the lids with the boxes to get two tones.  I added their initial to the front.

with lots of hugs and kisses.

They are now ready for the cuteness that is Valentines Day.

Valentine Bags

The thing I loved the most about these bags is the ability to change them out for every occasion.  But two years later, I still only have a Halloween theme...until NOW.  Yay, now they have cute Valentine bags as well.  

With coordinating paper on the sides and back too add intrest.

Sweet bows.

Close up of the name.  I used the font on my Nursery Rhyme cartridge.  I wanted to do the letters in glitter white, but I didn't have enough and "had" to finish right then.

It'a all ready for her school party with all her Valentines :)

Do not disturb

Another sign for another wedding!  This time I embossed two of the tags to add dimension.
