I kind of fall into that later category, not because I don't have reason to celebrate, but more so because my husband is so wonderful that I don't need a day to make him pay attention to me, treat me special or give me quality time: he's pretty stinking fantastic at doing that already. (Yes, cue the sickening awwww's). All that aside though, I still like to do some decorations for Valentine's day pretty much like all other holidays.
Voila! Valentine's Day wreath. I went with just the colors because well, there's a lot of hearts floating around during V-Day and I needed a little cheer without the heart shape.
The close up. I'll be honest, it was a bit time consuming. It took me about two nights to do this even with the aid of a circle cutter, but I'm pretty pleased with how it turned out. Especially since when I first began it I kept envisioning a wreath that looked like V-day just exploded everywhere. Thankfully it didn't end up like that.
I normally would try to explain to you how I managed to do this, but honestly, this site does a much better job than I would.
Whether you love, hate, or are indifferent towards Valentine's Day, you should definitely do something special for yourself or someone you love and enjoy it nonetheless!
How pretty... you're so creative! I hope you two will do something to celebrate the day even though you're fine examples of love every day. :)
