HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY

(Note:  This is a post from 2015 and blogger has moved it to 2017 without my knowledge.  I apologize for this mix-up!)

 
Happy Valentine's Day!

My sweetie already gave me my Godiva heart early and I ate all of my chocolates immediately!  I love these hearts and they come up with such great designs every year.  I've been collecting for a while, but my favorite ones still make me swoon when I get them out each year. 



Hope you have a love-filled day!

THE BOOK OF LOVE




 
-->
Happy Valentine’s Day 2013

I thought a book on the subject of  love  might be a nice feature today!    I  love  pop-up books and this one caught my fancy a few years ago while shopping with friends and we all bought one.

 
The book opens to a pop-up of a bouquet.


There are quotes.


There is some history.


There are ethnic traditions and this set of Eskimo vows.



The book goes well with my collection of 
-->hearts  from my -->sweetheart.
.


Can't wait to see this year's version.
They remind me of formal gowns a little bit.

Hope you have someone to hug today.
Thanks for reading, or just looking at pictures.
I'm sending all of you
hugs  and love  today!

Linking Up With

I'm So In Love With...

Maybe it is because I've always been a romantic-at-heart sort of person, but I love Valentine's Day 
In elementary school, I loved the art class time when we got to decorate a plain white sack to receive the cards we'd get from our classmates.

Early memories and those as an adult equal my heart overflowing with Valentine's Day love.  It is the reason I adore getting out my decorations for the day and I'll gladly share a few more of them with you (see Part 1 here)--my Valentine to you!  

First up is really a Christmas decoration that I only use at Valentine's.  Seems made for the occasion, don't you think?  It even says Happy Valentine's



Next is just a simple tabletop display with a small picture of my and my honey.




This is a magnetic frame I made and it changes spots in my home with my mood--right now in my guest bath off my kitchen.  Don't even know what that says about my mood, don't even think about it!  Just needed some color and flair in the space.




Changing directions...this is a friend's home and I thought this vignette was just wonderful--reflects her personality very well.



And finally, a beautiful store-front I spied and had to photograph for you.



I wish you amore with this Valentine's Day

Thanks for reading.
Just a note to anyone still reading.  I've added another way to Link Up with my blog, if you'd like.  It is the first item on the sidebar of my blog and does require you to set up an account with your email and a password--most of my readers don't follow with an account and that is PERFECTLY fine with me.  I love that you read my words and look at my pictures and find it enjoyable.  I hope to always make you glad you stopped by.
