Happy Valentine’s Day!

Happy Valentine’s Day friends!  Any fun and exciting plans?  Ryan has been feeling under the weather lately, so we’re going to be postponing Valentine’s Day celebrations until he gets better.  Looks like I’ll be making tacos tonight, staying in, taking care of the hubs, and snuggling with little Soph… still not a bad night!

Here’s a shot from our engagement session last year in Laguna Beach.  I loved our sign from Brandy at Baybee Dahl Boutique, and it works out perfectly for today!

Sweet Valentine’s Day Board

Guess what?  One of my favorite holidays is upon us … Valentine’s Day!  With just under a month left, I put together a little inspiration board of Sweet and Saucy’s cakes and sweet treats  featured on Style Me Pretty.  I’m pretty sure that I’ll be visiting the new Sweet and Saucy Shop soon, which opened up in Newport Beach last year (yay!).  All of Melody’s creations are so beautiful and I can’t wait to see what she comes up with this year.

I love those chocolate covered heart rice krispie treats!  Look for more Valetine’s posts and DIY projects in the next few weeks.

Valentine’s Day Decor

So I’m well aware that Valentine’s Day is over BUT I had to share with you all some of the pictures from my Valentine’s Party.

I used the cutest Love Sweet Love printables from The Sweetest Occasion.  Love the cupcake toppers and Love Sweet Love sign 🙂

I also printed out a little heart banner and straw flags from The Sweetest Occasion.

The Sweetest Occasion

I added a little glitter to mine and used red baker’s twine to tie up the hearts.

Love these!

And last but not least, my little Valentine’s tree with the cutest heart ornaments from JoyAnna.

Time to put away the Valentine’s Day decor and get ready for Easter!

Crafting: Heart Garland

Good morning friends!  Valentine’s Day is right around the corner and I’ve been doing some decorating with heart garland that’s super easy and fun to make!

via Oh!Crafts

I started with punching out some hearts using Martha Stewart’s heart punch. 

You can use paint chips as shown above, or in my case, card stock.  A sewing machine (which I don’t have but want!) works good with this craft as well.  I just used a needle and thread and threaded the cut out hearts until I had my desired length.  They came out really cute!

And here’s my little Valentine’s Day tree 🙂

Once I finish up all the decorating, I’ll post more pictures!  Happy crafting!
