Debra is having a Vintage Valentine Party today! I have a few vignettes to share with you. First in my den where the sun was happily shining in, I put one of the heart boxes I decoupaged...
Then there is my sweet vintage book I love to use hoping to give Jim a hint...
I have it in my den where he can see it when he sits at the computer!
My displays are very subtle this year...
Just the way I like it...
I love the sweet faded roses on this old book!
Old sheet music is always a perfect, romantic touch...
I added a bit of pink to soften it all...
I love the Valentine tussie...I have two and got them off Etsy years ago...
Last Valentine's Day Jim and I went antiquing and he found this book for me...
I will always treasure it!!
There is another dove on my mantle too...
It is the perfect size to hold a little something special...
Hmmm...do you think he will get that hint?
Actually Jim has already given me the best gift ~ his strong hand to hold, his broad shoulder to lean on and his heart full of love. My little nest has been shaken up a bit lately. I have to have surgery next week. Open heart surgery. A small mass called a left atrial myxoma (or benign tumor) has been found and needs to be removed. So, next week I am heading into Boston to have it taken care of. I am lucky I live near a place that has some of the best hospitals and doctors in the world. I am also lucky the word benign was used. And I am very lucky to have the love and support of my family and friends. You have all been so wonderful and I thank you so much! I also know I could count on all of my blog friends for good thoughts and prayers!
Needless to say I will be taking a little blog break. However, before I go I will be back on Monday to share what I have so far in my den makeover which will be on hold for a bit. I hope you all have a wonderful weekend and thank you for listening!!
