Celebration...simply bringing it back.


 Since I got married I've been Really bad at celebrating any holidays.
I figured there must be an easy and inexpensive way to do something little.
 So I decided to make some simple decorations starting with Valentines.
 Kevin provided a beaker for some candy and I painted a little Valentine watercolor for the mantle.





 I used some felt that I already had to make a little heart-shaped garland.  In total it only took about 20 minutes to make.
I got this little beauty of a candy dish at D.I. for $.75, there used to be more candy in it, turns out Kevin kind of digs cinnamon candy.

I have felt nice and Valentines-y all month with very little effort, so wahoo for simple holiday decor.

    I always want to decorate and celebrate each holiday. :) Way to go on taking action. I need to just start little too and make each holiday feel festive.

    Brooke, I think possibly the biggest hurdle for me is realizing that I don't have to go "all out" for everything and that a little is ok...
