Itty Bitty Valentine Touches

Hey everyone!  I just wanted to squeeze in a short little post before The Super Bowl gets into full swing.  I never do much in the way of Valentine decorating and probably even less this year, but thought I'd share the little bit that I did do.  My craft-sewing room really doesn't need any added color or fun-stuff to make it my absolute favorite room in the house, but it got just a bit of "Valentine Love," anyway.

See what I mean?  Quite a colorful and happy little room!
If you've been following my blog, you will notice that I have, once again rearranged some things, but I won't torture you with all that.


There's some Valentine love going on!

I've had this little wired stem thingy forever, but it was brown.  I just did a little hit or miss with some white chalk paint & popped it into a little mason jar.

I made a bunch of pompoms and crocheted some little hearts while I watched TV one night and......

Threaded them onto some white twine to make this little "swag of love!"

As long as this was in the pic, I'll share what my plans are for this Smash book.  The little tag at the top says "All About Fabric."  I have several sewing projects I want to complete this year, and this book will contain any measurements & info I need to finish existing projects and plans and ideas for ones that are still floating around in my head.


I've had these little red hearts for a few years & wasn't sure what I wanted to do with them, so for now, they are hanging out on the end of my thread holder -- I kind of like them right there!

The only other place to get some Valentine decor was right here on my little shelf and......
And chalkboard.  I almost always do something seasonal here.


I made the little cloth hearts a couple of years ago.  I really love turquoise combined with red.

So there you have it.  My itty bitty Valentine touches for 2015!  Now I'm off to watch the game.
Go PATRIOTS!  Seriously, it's only because Tom Brady is just so super-cute!

  10. Carol, your craft room is so full of wonderful and vibrant colour that must be a burst of energy for you every time you are in it. Your itty bitty Valentine touches are very pretty, and I especially like your sweet blackboard/shelf vignette, and like you, I am really loving turquoise and red together - what a pair, indeed!

    Wishing you a wonderful early weekend!
