Made with love....

 It's that time! It's so easy to do and really doesn't take that much time. Make your own special Valentines! They are so sweet and made with love! These Valentines I made with cut out card stock circles. I dipped them in left over coffee from the morning pot and baked them  for a few minutes at 350 degrees. I then cut out random circles of Valentine style papers{It can be pink and red with whatever images that could be romantic}. I folded the edges in a bit and glued a small dot on the back of the cicles and put them together. I used a pink seam binding for the ribbon but any style ribbon or string will do. These are darling and voila!  I hoped I inspired you to get out your papers and make your own! It's not too late!
Enjoy!

Pink-Nurturing Kindness

Ahhhh.. the color pink. My favorite. Pink symbolizes love,beauty, kindness and compasion. It heals grief and sadness,soothes difficulties in both romantic and family relationships. It gives selfworth, love and acceptance. It means I care. Not just for Valentine's Day but for everyday. So spread the pink and make yourself feel good. I purchased these pink hydrangas yesterday. They are so pretty. I placed them in my front foyer for everyone to see.{well anyone who walks in my foyer}.They make me feel good every time I walk by them!

Birds of a feather......

"That little bird has chosen his shelter. Above it are the stars and the deep heaven of worlds. Yet he is rocking himself to sleep without caring for tomorrow's lodging, calmly clinging to his little twig, and leaving God to think for him." - Martin Luther


So sweet..Enjoy !

The July Flower

 I've been away a bit. Taking advantage of the lazy,hazy ,hot and sticky and pretty much relaxing Summer days! I hope you all are too! We just received the back to school list in the mail today. Hard to believe it's already around the corner. Every Summer seems to breeze on by a bit faster as my children get older.

 Well I thought I would share The July flower today! Since we still are in July. It is the Double Stock Flower!
 The stock flower is often associated with beautiful symbolism. They are most commonly said to represent a contented and happy life; however, they are also thought to mean undying affection and love, as well as lasting beauty. Because of these symbols, stock flowers are often given as gifts as emblems of love, contentment and the wish for the recipient to be as happy and beautiful tomorrow as they are today. This information was found on Flowers.org.
 Wishing you all a happy July Day!

Mon Amour

Today is my 17th wedding Anniversary! Wow has time flown by!I remember the day we met so long ago.My husband is French and I met him on a cruise! Yes...It's a love boat story!So funny though...I didn't understand a word he said to me. I just would smile alot and and nod like I knew what he was saying when we first met.. It took awhile before I could understand him with his heavy accent. He still has a heavy accent and many people have a hard time figuring out what he's saying. Anyways It's a love story for sure and today marks our 17 years of marriage!He's a man I admire so much and I'm so lucky to share my life with him!Always and Forever!

He must of captured it along the way.To be young and carefree and kissing on a park bench.It's very sweet!Yes it's true we don't need Valentine's Day to show or love. It could be any day!
