I don’t go wild with Valentine’s decorations but I do a few things to bring some pink and red into my home.
I made a bunch of these yarn hearts with my daughter Charlotte last year. We had fun and they were easy. Here’s a link if you’re interested. I hung them on my hideous fireplace with fishing line.
I found these antique silhouettes years ago at the Walnut Antiques Fair. I was holding them back thinking I wanted to change out the frames, but I think they look kinda sweet “as is” on my piano.
I also changed the candles in my hanging candelabra ($1 find at an estate sale) to pink.
“Asabelle” (Charlotte named her) got a warm but springy scarf (oh and those furry two have been keeping me on my toes lately too).
And food also makes for a fun decoration during February.
Sometimes holiday decorations make me feel like a frustrated grade school teacher, but changing up my home decor helps to brighten the long days of winter. Am I the only one who feels this way?
I am always so inspired by your simple, easy, yet creatively pulled together decorations. I love how you pull from different “hunts” for various items, then pull them together in your home without going over the top, avoiding the straight from the chain-stores look. This is not a skill I currently possess, so I am going to have Aliyah intern with you during her growing up years!
Monica, what a sweet comment. Thank you!
