Valentine’s Day Decor

The following post contains affiliate links. Read my full disclosure here.

Valentine’s Day is right around the corner. I have to admit, my decor went up right after Christmas went down. It sounds crazy but I really just kept it simple. I mean real simple this year. After all the time it took to put away Christmas decor, I was tired and done. Then I went to the store and saw all the cute pinks and reds flooding the shelves. I just couldn’t resist. I am a sucker for pink. I knew I had to keep it easy while adding some pink and red to the house.

I made a bunch of fun banners and garland last year for Valentines. I started by getting those out and placing them around the house. I always love a banner across the mantel for holidays. I have a secret for hanging them. Clear mini command hooks. It works like a charm with no mess or damage.  For lighter banners, I also use clear tape. It just depends on how heavy the banner is and if it will stay put. I put the rest of the garland and banners in the entry. I still love my Whimzical Woods sign. I love it even more with some touches of pink. I found the cute glitter heart banner (across the entry table) at Home Goods for $3. Speaking of this entry table, it is on sale right now! I got it from World Market and I have loved it ever since day one. It is so long and versatile. The price can not be beaten for a table this size. I found the XO at Target for $5 and the pink potted sequin heart at Michael’s for $4 (with a coupon).

The Target dollar spot had these cute hand towels for $3. And that is about as far as I got. This pregnancy has had me sick most days. So, I was pretty happy to get this much done. Besides that, I am really giddy to share my spring home tour with you the begging of March. There are some really talented ladies I have teamed up with to bring you an amazing week of home tours. Don’t worry, I won’t keep it this simple for the spring tour. 🙂

Valentines Decor

Valentines Day is so fun! I think in the past I haven’t really put much effort into Valentines decorations. Really I would just do enough to make my kids happy. I mean let’s be real. It’s right after Christmas and it is hard to think about decorating for another holiday when you have Christmas to put away.  It all happens so fast. This is year was a little different.2016-01-12-07-56-50-1-1

I actually wanted to decorate for Valentines. I had so many creative ideas about what I wanted to do for Valentines. This is probably because we are living in a temporary home while we build our house. I didn’t really decorate for Christmas because we were at families houses to enjoy all of their decor. Not having my own house to decorate is making me itch to get into our house this summer and get to decorating. So after making all those cute Valentines garlands from Michaels; I put together a small little Valentines area in our temporary home.

I love all the hand written signs in wood frames. I have seen them all over Etsy for $100-$300. WOW! I was eyeing a few for the new house but that wasn’t going to happen anytime soon. Well, I went to Hobby Lobby to get the gold letters for my chipboard banner. You can’t go into Hobby Lobby without looking at the entire store. Well, I found this awesome wood frame sign that screamed Valentines to me. It was on the clearance aisle for $20. WHAT!? It looked like some of the pricey ones I had seen for way more. I snatched it up and ran. 🙂2016-01-12-07-56-21-1-1-1

I’m excited to use all these pieces in our new home next year. For now, this will be our Valentines decor.

Cake Stand

Target dollar spot. Enough said. 🙂 Ok, I walked into Target and saw these cute scalloped cake stands and snatched two up asap. $5, say what? Now if I could just find that black and white striped pitcher/vase from the dollar spot everybody else seems to have, I would be set. So I love the shape of the cake stand but red just wasn’t going to work for me. 1. I wanted to use this for more than just Valentines. 2. My valentines decor is mostly pink and gold this year, no red. I know, but I just wasn’t feeling red this year. So I decided to bust out my trusty spray paint and get busy. I know that painting them will make them not usable for food. That didn’t matter because they would be mostly decorative. If I want to use them for food then I will use doilies or some type of liner first on the stand.

You know the drill by now. Kill primer first. I’m serious this is unlike any other primer I have used. It coats the object so well that it almost looks like it’s already painted. Truth be told, I have left a few items only primed around my house. It’s a flat white finish and I really liked it for a few things. Next, grab some Krylon spray paint. Here is a video of the way I like to spray paint. Go check it out. It will change your life.

Now these cake stands can be used all year long. I’m thinking they will look awesome in the top glass cabinets on display in the new house. My kids had such a blast making these valentines cupcakes. Naturally, I had to display them on my cute cake stand. Again, there are cupcake liners so they are not directly on the painted stand. Walmart also had this cute glitter heart confetti for $0.98. This year Valentines Day is simple because we are in transition while waiting for our house to be built. Can’t wait to see these stands in action this summer in our new house.
