Getting Ready for Valentine's Day



This past weekend I took down and packed away all of our Christmas stuff!!
(or so I thought! I have a pile of things I found that need to be taken up to the attic now!)

It is very nice to have everything put away and back into place!!
But now it looks kind of bare!!
So I am pulling out the Valentine's Decorations in full force!!

I actually don't have any Valentine's Decorations so I will be making everything.
I have been seeing ALOT of cute things on blogs so i will be stealing using their ideas!!

This one, I acutally came up with by myself!! I am extremely surprised by that!!
I had some denim left over from my atempt at making Sean a denim shirt.
(That is STILL a work in progress!!)

The hearts were very simple.
I just cut a paper heart out and then traced it onto the denim.
Cut the hearts out.
Cut the letters and hearts out of material and stitched them on.
Sewed around them, leaving an opening to stuff them with poly-fil.
Sewed them closed.
and set them on my mantel!!
