a Heartfelt welcome

or a heartfeltcrocheted welcome
yeah, I'm punny like that, watch out!

I decided to change up the door wreath again...wanted something Valentines'ish so I bought a $1 wreath at the $ store and wrapped it in red yarn...

lets pretend that I cleaned up my porch for this picture...that I don't have a bed frame leaning up against the side of my house and a battered old chair that I will someday refinish and make look really cool!...just be glad I'm not showing you the rest of the porch...SCARY...yeah, not lovely...and since this is a post in honor of love...valentines day...we just won't go there!

I crotched some hearts on a string...heart-strings....and let them dangle from the middle...was thinking of hand writing little love notes of pieces of paper and sticking them around the wreath...but I still haven't gotten around to doing that....(let me know if you want the heart crotchet pattern...very easy).

our entry way shelf...
and since we were pretending about the porch...lets pretend that I dusted before I decorated and took the pictures...
um...yeah...didn't happen...
the cute red mail box, vintage print clip board and 'I love You' milk vase (set of 3) were all from the $ section at Target...
wedding picture is from...our wedding...
and the pink Camilla's are from our tree...love the Camilla tree!

 and our heater...I like to decorate the top of our heater, since I don't have a mantel, and a mantel is over a fireplace...I figured the top of my heater was sort of like my mantel...a girl can dream right...
anyways...
my 'vintage' suitcases from Michaels years ago...
Beau's old teddy bear, not sure if it's vintage yet...
the ball of red yarn leftover from making the wreath...
one of the 'I love you' vases...
and the sweet tea valentine'ish towel is from my mother-in-law...

enjoy your month of love...
do you  have any decorations up for St. Valentine?  will you?
