be mine...

I love Valentines Day. I'm totally NOT a pink-girlie-girl but... there's something so cute about all those little old-fashioned images of love. Remember when you were a kid and you decorated that recycled shoebox that would sit on the edge of your desk waiting for valentines from classmates? Sometimes even a tiny box of Sweethearts tucked inside? I loved that!

So of course I HAD to make a Valentine banner. We had a little class here this past week and some of my friends and I made this sweet banner using vintage images, red sparkly chenille stems, paper 'rick rack' and little white doilies. Love.

We tied a little silver glittered key onto the point of each flag with some red & white bakers twine. Double love.

Mine is actually on it's way to a friend. She's actually someone I haven't met in person, but I've met her through our blogs and with all the winter weather she's been having, I thought maybe a little California sunshine might be just what she needs. Hope she likes it!
