I love a festive home! I love punches of color here & there {I have a hot pink laundry room, for goodness sake-- if that's not a love for color then I don't know what is}. I will look for any reason to spruce up the house & make it a little homier & fun! I come by it pretty honestly, as this is what my mom always did when I was growing up. I remember coming home after school to find the house all decked out for every single season & holiday! At Halloween time, our spiral staircase showcased a gigantic spooky spider web, & little orange lights twinkled along the bannisters! One Valentine's Day I came home to find that my bedroom had been remade into a heart haven! I had a new comforter, new sheets, new curtains, all splashed in tiny different colored hearts! I remember absolutely LOVING that my mom took the time to make the holidays special & I have carried it with me & want to do the same for my family!
So....with Valentine's Day just around the corner, Jett & I got busy gettin' festive! We grabbed a few supplies from Hobby Lobby {mostly just inexpensive paper & ribbon} & put it all together to add a little pizazz to our home!
The cutest thing is that this morning when Jett woke up & saw the garland banner hanging {he had gone to bed before I had time to hang it last night}, he pointed at it & jibber jabbered with a sweet little excited expression all over his face! It warmed my heart to know that he noticed it hanging there, & that he too, loves the little "touches" I place around our home!
{Pink tree is from Hobby Lobby. I got it after Christmas when all of their Christmas stuff was 60% off}
Now...where did I place my planner? I'm off to see how many days I've got until I can start on the next holiday!
