Day Of Love

Valentine's Day is a special holiday for me.  Red and pink, hearts, chocolate, and LOVE...what a great day it is.  Here are a few lovelies that I have around my house.









And Now
These Three Remain:
Faith, Hope, and Love,
And The Greatest of
These is
Love


Have you decorated for Valentine's Day yet?

    Valentine's Day is special. All your decorations look LOVELY. Yesterday I hung a VALENTINE banner on the front door. But inside nothing yet? This is unsual for me. I think your beautiful tribute to the holiday was just the inspiration I needed to get the job done here. LOL Take care.

    Hi Sheri,
    I love your pretty Valentine decor. I also have the angel holding the heart in my collection and love it. I also just started to set out a few heart decorations.
    You have inspired me with your hearts.
    Hugs and blessings, Celestina Marie

    Dear Sheri Thank you for your sweet words and for thinking of me .
    Writing in my journal is something that helps me since my devorce in 1992 so for a long time now.....
    When I mentioned the matchboxes I meant the memories from longer ago .
    I love to write in my journal but also to write letters in my own language that's easy ! In english so much more difficult but I'm learning !Have a happy week !

    Hi Sheri!
    I am "chomping at the bit" as they say.... to get my Valentine's Day decorations out. It is my favorite, non-religious holiday and I love the sentiments behind the day.
    I wish every day was Valentine's day -- life is short and we don't take every day to appreciate our loved ones the way we make the effort to --- on Valentine's Day.
    Hopeless romantic I am!

    Thanks for sharing your little story about small worlds with me!
    THANKS so much!

    I did go downstairs to get my rubbermaid of hearts, but I seem to have misplaced more than I thought.
    My xmas stuff is all over the place down there. I haven't cleaned it up yet... maybe soon ; )
    I usually have hearts all year rond at the cottage. Not sure why, but i do. I'm looking around now, yup, lots of hearts, lol.
    I have a pink heart like yours hanging on your hutch.
    I love Valentine. Some don't, but I do. It seems it's one more step closer to Spring.
    Happy Thursday sweet Sheri

    Valentine's Day is a bright, cheerful bright right when we need it in the depths of February. And of course it involves chocolate, so what could be better. I enjoyed seeing all your pretty decorations. I need to get mine out!

    Beautiful pics and beautiful quotes. February is also the month my husband and I celebrate our wedding anniv. Twenty-seven this year. Seems surreal to me.
    Thanks for sharing, Sheri. I'm still picking up my jaw from the floor thinking of Jess's pizza. ;)

    Hi Sheri,

    Oh those Vday images are just sooo inviting! I have to tell you that it is one of my favorite times of the year - all those pinks, reds & whites just spell "happy & cheery" to me! :) Happy Sunday to you!!!

    I've never thought of Valentine's day as being a celebration to decorate for, but I think I may have to! I love the word "love" and have it written around my home in different rooms with wooden letters. I also collect hearts... I can't believe I haven't put it all together and gone bonkers with the decs over Feb 14th! Thank you for the inspiration! Em xx

    HI there! This reminds me I have some beautiful red hearts packed away in my closet. If we can see through the remodeling dust I might have to bring them out.

    Thank you for your very kind message ♥

    Have a lovely week!

    Sheri-

    No hummingbirds that I've seen yet! We do have them occasionally in other seasons though. They flit in and out every once in a while.

    No decorations up yet for Valentine's Day here, but I need to get to it! I need some cheerful red around.

    Enjoy the chocolate!
