This Valentine's vignette has been done with a few new items and with things I already had on hand! Let me know what you think.
I LOVE this piece of furniture. It belonged to my great grandparents. It's old but not sure how old. Their friend on an neighboring farm made it for them. It's not high-end or has a great finish on it but I just love it. I have been hesitant to refinish it because it is how it looked in my great grandma's house. I can remember it with all her knick knack's sitting on it. I have thought about refinishing it with a stain or painting it black and then distress it. Just don't know what to do because I want to make sure whatever I do is timeless because it's a piece I want to always have in my home.
The mirror I bought about 10 years ago at a little flea market in Brown Co., IN. It's old and looks old and I love it! I already had the wooden heart wreath.
The "Be Mine" wording came from the Dollar General store for $3
The white birdcage is a Goodwill find for $1.50. I already had the nest and eggs. The red candle pillars are the wickless candles. I got them on 90% off Christmas clearance at the Dollar Gernal store along with the Valentine's ribbon. The glass candlesticks were a wedding gift.
I just made this. Not my best work but it will do. I had the frame and love paper and white buttons. I just glued the buttons on the glass.
The white pleasant birds I have had for a few years. I love them! I believe I got them at a peddler/vendor mall. Their home has been in the kitchen but have now found a new home on my Valentine' Day vignette! Do you see something from my Winter vignette?
This subway print I got for free. So sorry but I can't remember where. (Hey, I'm new at this so give me a break! Ha ha!) I promise to do better next time!
And it wouldn't be complete without Willow Tree figures. Here is my lovely but small collection.
Happy Valentine's Day!
