Valentine’s Day Vignette {2012}

/ /

Hey, hey! I hope y’all had a lovely weekend!  We spent part of it in Franklin, Tennessee {one of our favorite places} at a small conference.  We were inspired and encouraged. Actually, I think my entire mindset was changed, but it’s going to take awhile to process it all.

Anyway, I thought the Valentine’s Day Vignette that I put together on my beloved apple green desk would be a perfect way to start the week.  I never thought that my desk would be so versatile when I painted it, but it is and I adore it!

I used some of the pieces and parts from last year’s Valentine’s Day display, but I threw in a pop of yellow in tulips.  Something about the green, yellow and pink together is just stunning, don’t you think?

I created this Ballard Design’s Knock-off Silhouette Vase with a profile shot of my little man.  It is one of my favorite pieces.  And pink boas make everything a bit softer and more romantic for this time of year. 🙂  I snagged this one last year at Hobby Lobby for 50% off.

This is what you see when you come to my front door.  It makes me smile…big. 😀

Did you do any Valentine’s Day decorating, baking or planning this weekend?

  3. Wow! Let’s start with the desk – AMAZING! Paint is a miraculous thing. I love the shots of yellow you added to your V-day display. Not the typical red/pink overdose that everyone else is doing. Love it.

  6. I know this is about a Valentine’s vignette, but lets talk about that desk. I seriously just painted a piece of furniture and after debating between green and a burnt orange I went with the orange. You are making think I made the wrong choice. LOVE the desk!

  7. i am in love with that desk & THAT color!!!
    and that town is one of my fav places of all time! I moved to Nashville after I graduated college for 2 years and my job, church, & fav shopping were all in Franklin!! and my husband and i had our engagement pictures taken there even after I had moved to SC. HA!! anyhow, it holds a sweet place in my heart. anyhow- great vignette! would love to see it thru all the seasons of the year!

  8. I LOVE it all Myra!!! I want a green desk like that!!! (Sad thing is my mom had an antique sewing machine desk I could have had and we basically gave it away free on a garage sale 🙁 Oh well… I would LOVE those shutters, too! I love your style Myra… you and your blog are a blessing to me!

    1. btw, haven’t started Valentine’s day decor or baking yet. I still have alllll our snowman out and snowy lil’ village collection out. ha! All I’ve done so far is get juice boxes and will make a message “ORANGE you glad we’re friends” for our son’s class for V’tines day 🙂
