Some days you just feel beat. After a fun, but crazy busy week at work, I’ve felt like doing nothing but crashing. And my cats, who play hard during the day, really know a thing or two about taking it easy. They remind me that once in a while, after a hard week, it’s okay to go to bed early or sleep in late. Just take it easy.
Yesterday, I was finding hearts everywhere!
This year I was a bit too busy for valentines, but I did find these fun ones I made a few years ago. I took around a pink paper heart around my yard and took photographs of it in the snow, in the tree branches, in the flower pot. Then I printed the photos and glued them to card stock and sent a little love of nature to all my valentines.
Did you make or receive any cute valentines this year?
In honor of this bright and sunny Valentine’s Day, I have rounded up some of my favorite love-related finds:
Lovebirds print by Geninne. I just can’t explain how cute birds are in knit hats.
I would love to make one for my front door!

Happy Valentine’s Day!
I just love seeing the magic that talented sewers and fashion designers create. I especially love salvaging a thrift store castoff and turning it into fashionista heaven. Over at Grosgrain she’s done it again. A big lipstick-red mumu has been transformed into a gorgeous cocktail dress – just in time for a cute Valentine party or special date. And best of all, she’s giving it away! Now that I’m all inspired, I wish I could put all my grad school work aside and break out that sewing machine.
