Valentine’s Day DIY Garland!

No comments yet

Valentine’s Day will be here soon!  Whether you love to go all out with the pink and red, cute cupids and hearts galore…or you’re on the simpler side, this DIY could be for you!  My Valentine decor has become more minimal over the years but I still love to recognize this sweet & heartfelt holiday. So today I’d love to share this easy project that was inspired by a box of “bowl filler”.  You might ask “why not just dump it in a bowl?” and that’s a perfectly fine question.  Truth is, you absolutely could do that for a simple & still darling decoration.  But I want to share how you can transform the filler into a fun garland…and it only requires a couple supplies you might have on hand!  Let’s welcome Happy Hearts Day with some easy creativity…

Healthy Halloween snacks are often an anomaly.  Cookies, candy and limitless creative confections for the holiday are readily available…and darn cute too!  But sometimes a healthier nibble is preferred to offset the sugar intake for the month!  So today I’m sharing the easiest idea you can serve as an appetizer or even an after-school snack!  An unlikely vessel makes it whimsical for the holiday and just the right size too.  A bar cart staple will help you create Halloween “shooters”…that anyone can enjoy!

Autumn tones are lovely for easing into the fall holidays!  Halloween is coming at us faster each year…and if you like to plan ahead it can be exciting to see all the color and spooky cuteness.  But if you love to savor the seasons, you can still get in on the fun in a more subtle way. You don’t have to go all orange & black to celebrate the holiday.  If you enjoy a more neutral palette I’d like to share some softer, sophisticated table ideas for your seasonal festivities!  Colors that can work throughout the entire season will help you tweak your decor from late summer right up to the Thanksgiving feast!  So let’s get some early “spooky” on and…
