Happy Valentine's Day!
I know everyone has strong opinions about this day and they always seem to either people love it or hate it. However, enjoy doing something special for my loved ones and adding a little extra touches to our apartment during this time of year.
Valentine's Day is the first holiday after the big holiday season, so I love the excuse to do some seasonal decorating. Like I have said before, I really enjoy the transition of holidays and seasons. Today gives me a taste of color and gets me excited about Spring coming!
Here are the few accents I incorporated into our home this year.
This wreath is one that I use all year-round and just change the look by switching out the flowers or berries according to the season. For February and the end of winter, I went with a soft pink budding flower and kept it simple with just one side done. I really like how it is a nod to Valentine's day without being cheesy.
On the dining room table, I placed a large vase with the same budding flowers along with a willow tree statue. The runner is one that I recently made from scrap fabric. I really like how it turned out and that I can use it throught the Spring when I decorate for Easter!
(This runner was made using my new sewing machine from my in-laws and it worked beautifully! Thanks to Matt and Julie!)
This figure was an engagement present and brings an extra touch of love. :)
Here is another simple piece to bring in some Valentine decor. This wreath is on our coat closet and I like changing it out with little accents. This wooden heart was 50% off at Joann's and only cost 2 bucks!
Finally, I changed up our chalkboard on the coffee bar for the season as well! In our home, we love the Beatles so this saying was perfect for the month of love.
Hope you all are enjoying this holiday! Can't wait for Spring to be here in full bloom. Colorado has such beautiful seasons so stay tuned for some amazing spring colors to come!
