As If You Thought We Were Done For The Day…

We can’t stop posting HEARTS for you lovely ladies & gents!!!!

Jen is cranking out all of these amazing heartsy, Valentinesy creations… and we LOVE sharing them with you! We’ll surely share more heartsy, lovey crafts & tutorials after today, since we see the entire month of February as the month of L-O-V-E… but today is just a very special day for hearts :)

Below we’ve featured a floral burlap heart that screams, “SPRING LOVE!”… How fresh and vibrant!?… below the featured floral burlap photo is a gallery of the entire burlap heart collection designed by Jennifer (click to enlarge photos!)- Enjoy!. How romantic!

Hearts and Hearts and Hearts!

It’s V-day… and so there’s no such thing as posting TOO many heart photos! Hearts in all different shapes, sizes and materials is pretty much what got us so super excited for this month of LOVE! Enjoy these romantic, burlap hearts. Jennifer assigned a special filigree to each burlap heart, which makes every one stand out in its own special way. Whaddya think?! awesome, right?!

Spreading the LOVE

Just a very special hello during this very special February day!!! We hope your day is full of even more beauty than this striking floral heart that Jennifer hand crafted.

Doesn’t it just make you want to stop and smell the roses?! It is so full of life, energy and love. We Knew it would make you smile.

Write in and let us know how your Valentine’s Day is going! Let’s spread the love! Oh, and yes, That is a Barbara Strawser cluster of paintings in the back! We just can’t help ourselves!

Say LOVE with Glitter!

What makes us happier than glitter? …. and lots of it? These super cool dangling glitter hearts are one of our fave projects this February… They’re laser cut hearts (one  has been backed with red felt to add a pop of color), and they are sure to make your honey smile.

Michaels often has loads of them, and once they’re glittered they become so special. In order to get them glistening in glitter, just modpodge the surface and add your favorite glitters. For an extra special touch add a bow!!  When all was said and done, we couldn’t resist photographing our hearts in the city of LOVE!… (Eifell Tower curtesy of Ikea)
