Sickly Sweet Valentines



I love these valentines from the Martha Stewart website. I'm a big fan of using doilies in general. Last Thursday I used a bunch as stencils to to complete this art piece. the contrasting geometrical shapes they make are so pretty and antique-y, yet still modern.

I love Valentines. No other day allows you to be so whimsical, capricous, or charming. and no other holiday involves as much handmade, heartfelt crafts, notes, and letters. Perfect. It may just be my favorite holiday- apart from Halloween of course.

If you're in the mood for more lovey-dovey cute overload, hop on over to Le Love, this great blog FILLED with super romantic pictures and heart-flutteringly romantic vignettes. I've wasted a good fifteen minutes everyday scrolling through, sighing. This will melt your heart. (Like the Jenny Lewis song?)
