{Project Home} A Valentine's Day "Mantel"

{Disclaimer!} for those of you who follow our family blog, From A to Sneed, you've likely seen this before! But with all the lovely Valentine's projects, decor, and mantels out there, and all the fun link-up parties on the horizon, I wanted to share this here on A Night Owl.

Now, get used to these shelves! Since we don't have a fireplace or mantel in our home, I hung these shelves as a way to display fun things for holidays and events, without having to spread it all over the house. They're so much fun!


The Valentines subway art I downloaded for *FREE* from eighteen25. The red hearts are a box and lid from the dollar section from Target.



The "Love Will Find A Way" sign and XOXO blocks are also from the dollar section at Target. Then I simply framed some heart-shaped doilies (also from Target) on pink paper in a simple red frame.


I then had some "Picnik" fun (RIP, I need to get better at photoshop apparently!) and updated a picture of my boys with hearts to fit a fancy red frame, and placed a small jar of candy hearts on the side.


I took those same doilies that I framed, glued the letters for "LOVE" to the doilies, and hung with some red and white bakers twine.


I love how it all turned out. The lovely colors and happy theme make me smile each day!

  1. I found you on Tip Junkie. Would you please share this with my readers for our Fun Stuff Fridays Valentine's Linky Party? I think it would be a great fit. http://www.toysinthedryer.com/2012/02/14-days-of-valentines-fun-stuff-fridays.html
