8 ways to create a romantic valentines dinner for your man

Last year for Valentine’s Day (our first Valentine’s as home owners) I put together a sweet, romantic dinner for two here at home. I LOVE creating themed tablescapes so today I’m sharing 8 ways to create a romantic Valentine’s Day dinner for two! I had to create last year’s Valentine’s Day tablescape with things we already had on hand because we are just starting out and I haven’t yet collected all the things seasoned home owners have. I’m enjoying this phase though- the putting a life together piece by piece (on a budget) and making due with what we have. I thought it would be fun to show you what I put together from my little treasure hunt through the house. This is one of my first tablescapes and the … Continue Reading →

Either frame them for some inexpensive holiday decor for yourself next year, or frame several of them for gifts … Continue Reading →

I love Vintage things and Shabby Chic or Cottage Decor, so I decided to “Make” a few Vintage looking Christmas gifts this year for some of the people on my list. It was so simple and so inexpensive to do, yet makes an impressive gift that looks like you spent much more. There are only 2 things you need to do: Hunt for 5×7 Antique picture frames Hunt for Vintage Christmas Cards In my case, I didn’t have to do much hunting, because the things I found are not real antiques, just brand new vintage looking items. It literally took me all of about 5 minutes to find and put together my gifts. However, if you are a person who enjoys garage sale hunting, or antique mall … Continue Reading →
