My Valentine Mantel and living room

I am loving red!

Works well in this room, I think. I would not want it all year round, but for the month or so, I do enjoy it.

 How about taking some plain pine cones and embellishing a bit with cinnamon candy..looks really cute.

 This smells really good, bad thing is I yearn for a cupcake

 I really love decorating with scrabble

love to you and your loved ones!

Thanks for stopping by, and for your sweet gracious comments.

I will be joining Kim for her Boring to Better Party, because adding red certainly makes it less boring.

What is a girl to do when it is between Winter, and Valentines day? 

She does a little bit of a transition to get ahead start.

I really wanted to make a Winter wreath.  Monday while at Walmart I saw everything was on clearance and thought "Oh what can I do"?

I bought these little silver wreath ornaments for 25 cents each, the green large wreath for $2.00. I already had the roses, strawberries and spray snow.  So here is what I came up with.

Started with making some winter tags to add to the wreath

Jus t a few red hearts around so far.

 Essentially this wreath cost me less than $5.00 to make.

So that is what a girl is to do, start decorating for Valentines day early, and add the winter theme to it.
