valentine’s day decorations

I really love to decorate a little bit for every holiday.  It just feels so festive!  I don’t have too much for Valentine’s Day.  I picked up a few tea towels and a matching table runner at Target last year on clearance.  LOVE THEM!  Mine are similar to these, I guess they change them a little bit every year.  I just love the colors.  
And I still have this conversation heart wreath    and    this yarn heart garland that we made last year.  I’m so glad both of these babies made it through a whole year of storage unscathed.  
So, this year to add to our collection…. I made this. 
 I saw a few similar ones on Pinterest.  One that I saw only had the family member’s names on them.  And another one I ran across had only the conversation heart sayings on them.  
I really liked the idea of using our names, but also wanted that “conversation heart” feel, so I added sayings and our names.  🙂  Win. win.  I really like the way it turned out.  It looks nice in the hallway next to our calendar and family rules.  

What you need:

Wooden hearts (they are a dollar each and were 50 percent off – whoohoo)
Fun ribbon (I already had the sparkly pink – works perfectly)
Hot glue
Pastel paints
Pink alphabet stickers

I looked at real conversation hearts to get ideas and sayings.  I noticed a few things…..they are always printed with pink ink.  Always all caps.  Always sans serif.  I couldn’t find any nice pink stickers that were all caps AND straight.  So, I got the closest thing I could find.  It works.  🙂  And I like that I got a new Valentine’s decoration for 4 bucks!  And I got to be a little crafty.  
Have a great day.
