Valentine's Mantle

Hurray for Valentine's Day!!!

My living room is all dressed up and ready for the BEST day of the year. Thank goodness FMG is amazing and tolerates my whimsical obsession with a day devoted to pink and lovies.


It's a little funky, a little sweet, a little mod and totally Casa G.


It couldn't truly be Casa G without a monogram. I can't NOT monogram something and this pink glitter was perfect! I guess the glitter is pretty standard, right?


This sweet little love bird is hanging out here - he usually lives in the dining room - for the season. Her mate is on the other end of the mantle.


This Valentine sign was reprieved from door duty to sit watch over the romance that is sure to ensue over the next few weeks. Nothing says it better, right?


Real flowers won't last and the faux-real gorgeous silk flowers I really wanted weren't in the budget... but a dollar store bouquet of sparkly hearts is!
 

More sparkly hearts in the apothecary jar. Just in case you might need one to cure what ails you. There is no problem a sparkly heart can't solve. (You think I jest? I'm serious. No problem.)


The other love bird  keeping watch!  I love the way the mercury-esque glass reflects the pink and red and adds a modern touch to the mantle.



Love, love, love it! Have (or will) you decorat(ed) for Valentine's Day? Don't let the sweetest day of the year go by unloved in your house!

  1. Did you make the monogrammed heart or did you just glitter it up? I am guessing it was with stencils and glue??
