It's February so I have a few Valentine's Day decorations around the house. I always enjoy using these vintage pieces from my in-laws.
Years ago, my mother-in-law shared these delicate, intricate paper valentines and I treasure them! I believe they had belonged to her mother and aunt and were in with some vintage postcards she also provided me.
Aren't they beautiful? I display them in different spots and vary the vignettes each year. This time I decided to spotlight them on my long shelf, which my dad handcrafted for me back about 30 years ago.
I bought this paper heart garland from Current a long time ago and thought it was in keeping with the authentic paper pieces.
I received this Victorian book ages ago and tucked it in on the shelf. In addition to lovely artwork, it contains little stories, poems, verses and I will leave you with one...
Fresh as the flowers, may all you pleasures be!
