be my valentine......

I {{heart}} Valentine's day! It's one of my favorite holidays- for several reasons....I love the decorations, the candy, the Red Velvet Cake, the cards, the flowers, a special dinner together, pretty much everything about this special day! I especially love the excuse {not that I really need an excuse} to show those closest to me just how much I love them!

my mantel


I kept the clear cylander I had on my January mantel, but added some red felt hearts to the branches. I used a piece of baker's twine and an X & O tag to spruce up a simple white candle.

Although I'm trying to keep my mantels simple, I feel like this one needs a little something.....hmmmm, I may have to tweak it just a bit....

I saved this gift from Christmas....Red Velvet is the perfect scent for this month!
