Putting together this Valentine's Day Mantel was so much fun. My hubby took me to the Goodwill Saturday morning to see what we could find for my mantel. We found the sweet ceramic red hearts tower, the two red hearts piece, and those precious little teddy bears holding the red love heart! What a score, huh? I made both frames. The first frame, I spray painted Ballet Pink. Then on a piece of pink scrap paper, I made a heart from glue and some glitter I won from the P K Glitz Blog.
This frame, I also spray painted Ballet Pink. I made these rosettes from some of Alie's old baby blankets and glued them onto the frame and added one of my favorite pictures of my own sweet Valentine!
I then tied some twine on to my little mason jar candles and created a heart tag from the same scrap paper. I tied a bow of tulle around the white vase of my flower.
I made this "Be Mine" garland from the same scrap paper and then wrote "Be Mine" in glue and dusted the glue with the P K Glitz glitter.
Remember my Paper Rosette Hearts? I hung them on the wall just above the mantel.
And....VIOLA! My Super Sweet Valentine's Day Mantel!
