It's funny, I've never really been a huge Valentines Day person. Steve and I have never done anything crazy, to be honest I don't even think we've gone out to a romantic dinner once in the nine years we've been together, except for the first year. We are so lame!
But this year I've gotten into the V-day spirit and have been making little decorations here and there, which I'll share later. Today I wanted to share some of my favorite Valentines Day
things from around the web.

this amazing felt flower garland from my friend Lena over at
Root and Blossom. I am seriously in love with this and will be making it as soon as I can get to the fabric store (tomorrow?!). I think it's an adorable non-heart way to decorate for Valentines Day (even thought I love hearts). But also, I think it will be an adorable little decoration for our baby girls space after V-day is over.

this hilarious card from etsy shop
Emily McDowell Illustrations. It's a sad but true fact that a few nights a week Steve and I are exhausted and climb into bed early to zone out on our phones 'together'. I know he'd get a kick out of this card :)

this sweet paper heart garland. It would be easy to make if only I had a heart punch...maybe I'll be looking for that tomorrow too?

this heart cake. I saw this on pinterest a while ago and thought it would be fun to try making a heart cake. Valentines day is the perfect excuse!
Do you decorate for Valentines Day? Feel free to share any Valentines related blog posts in the the comment section so I can visit!
Ha! Alex and I never go out for Valentine's Day either. Everything is too crowded. We just like to cook dinner together and cozy up on the couch.
ReplyDeleteAlso, I love that rose garland - so sweet for a little girl's nursery space! ;)
Thanks for the share Whitney! Super flattered!
ReplyDeleteLovely tips for Valentines day. You dont need a heart punch. Just cut the hearts out of a colored paper. I did that last year, had red and pink one, and glued a string to the hearts to make a garland and it really looked lovely. The kids loved that :-)
ReplyDeleteah! I love all of these!! I would've spends all my time (were I to make a heart cake) filing down edges until my heart sized cake was the size of a cupcake... and it'd probably still be uneven. BRILLIANT! I love that garland too. so so sweet. That'd be sweet in a little nursery any time of year. great post!
ReplyDeleteLena! I love that garland! It is SOO sweet.
ReplyDeleteAre you planning on making the heart cake? Looks super cute! I wrote a post today about toddler meals and linked back to your site, hope that's alright! How are you feeling? How are shared room plans coming along?
ReplyDeleteSo true, everything is crazy crowded! We usually just do our usual evening together and say 'happy valentines day' haha
ReplyDeleteisn't it amazing?!!
ReplyDeleteI am in love so I had to share it! You did amazing!
ReplyDeletegood idea Lucie! Thank you!
ReplyDeletehaha if I do get around to making it I'm sure it will be uneven but oh well. I am dying over the garland and plan on making it to use in baby girls side of the nursery for sure. So perfect!
ReplyDeleteI want to make the heart cake, but we're trying not to eat too many sweets so hmmm. We'll see ;)
ReplyDeleteThat's totally fine that you linked back, thank you! I've been feeling good, just tired at 7pm after Riggs goes to bed, so do I! haha not much time for blogging lol.
