Valentine's Day Garland

 With great inspiration from Pottery Barn Kids it was easy to welcome
Valentine’s Day
  

The paper garland has been one of my favorites.
I like the sweet and fun way it dresses up the room.
I made mailbags for Boo and K-Bear a couple years ago before I learned how to sew. 
I know the girls would appreciate an upgrade from the paper one I made.
I'll also be using the PB Kids' Valentine's mailbag as a guide for a future project.  


I'm not a scrapbooker but I love the paper. I like how versatile it is and love the varieties you can find. I found the paper used to create the garland in Tuesday Morning’s Clearance section last year.   

I'll also be using this playful paper for the girls' Valentines this year.
  

Valentine Garland

I used three different size hearts to give it a little twist of my own.  
I also wanted to incorporate some other colors.
I love reds and pinks but wanted to be thoughtful of my husband. 


He never complains but I know he enjoys the break from the pink.  


l hope to have the Valentine Heart Barrettes from The Purl Bee finished soon.
