For the love of LOVE!


      With Valentine's Day around the corner, it seems like the town has literally been painted red! Stores everywhere seem to be sporting Valentine themed decor from cheesy "Be Mine" heart shaped ballons to exotic drapes of gorgeous red roses. The cynics maybe rolling their eyes over and over and the romantics maybe sighing all day long, but the Valentine's Day decor doesn't necessarily mean red balloons and pink streamers. It could be so much more just by being a little less! The truth is we all need love and a touch of cupid might just be what we need to turn our "houses" into "homes".
     Here's a few ideas on how your homes could be a tad bit more 'love'ly:
     Quotes of the heart are great reminders of the beauty of life and can be added into many aspects of decor.

Instead of the heart take a hold of them arrows. They make for rustic additions to home decor. They can also be easily diyed into the home from fabric painted pillow covers to wooden arrow hangings to a simple wall decal.

And lastly the queen of Valentine's Day symbols-the heart itself! Personally I would prefer this symbol to be subtly added on mugs or fridge magnets. But if the idea is close to your heart then by all means go big with it!

Using one of the most quoted Beatles' song title, my arguement is simple: "All you need is Love"!
