Here's a decorating tip I should have shared weeks ago... when you're taking down your Christmas decorations, sort your ornaments by color. I keep my red and green stuff out to use for the next couple holidays. If you horde apothecary jars like I do- you'll never need anything else........ Here's what my dining room table will look like for the month!
Try to imagine crown molding, white linen drapes on the window, and the wall full of framed b&w photos!
The chandelier is same as always.
The dress form is a favorite from my collection, adorned with ribbon, and sparkly hearts attached with super cute magnets.
The pink ceiling tile is my own design as well as the red chalkboard.
The letters that spell out LOVE I made a couple years ago, they're just propped up on the chalkboard with my super cute magnets for support.
The card on the chalkboard is my own design (using SU).
The apothecary jars are filled with red Christmas ball ornaments, more sparkly hearts and my everyday red pears.
The table is covered with a normal white tablecloth and a scrap piece of red silk fabric.
This whole look cost me less than $5 and took about ten minutes to throw together. I bought the sparkly hearts last week from JoAnn's (on sale 40% off) and one box of red shatterproof ornaments from WalMart during the post-Christmas clearance sale.
I sure hope that sparked some ideas!
Now tell me, how do you decorate for Valentine's Day?

too cute! I'm glad I finally got you some of your jars back so you could decorate!
A great design...and I can definitely picture some crown molding and white drapes over the windows.
I think decorating for the holidays is always a great festive way to change the overall feel of your home every now and again.
Great job.
