happy february!


I really love this month.  It goes back to when I was a child.  My mom would always buy us Valentine's Day candy {she rarely bought us candy} and a little gift.  Our goodies would be sitting at our spot at the table Valentine's Day morning.  It was just a random little gift in the middle of a long Wisconsin winter when no holidays or gift giving times were coming for a while and I always looked forward to it.  

I know Valentine's Day is a bit cheesy but I love it.  The hearts and the candy and the mushy cards and the red and pink...none of this sugary sweetness really gels with my personality but I cannot get enough of it :).

2. Heart cookies from Busken Bakery in Cincinnati.  If you ever go to Cincinnati, get a cookie at Busken...they are the best.
4. Gold heart stickers from we love citrus - I think these would be perfect all year long.
5. I love this Victorian Valentine {by Vintage Mermaid on Etsy}.  Victorian Valentine's are the cutest.
6. Julie Ann Art has such sweet and funny cards.  I bought this one.  It's my favorite.
7. This simple wood heart diy is perfect.
8. Another handmade card seller that I love is Rowhouse 14.  This heart one is totally my style.
9. These XO earrings from Epheriell are just too cute.


Speaking of hearts - all the heart studs in the {Acute} Etsy shop are 20% off until Valentine's Day!  The price is already marked - no need for a coupon code.  If you order a pair by next Friday, you will have them by the 14th :).

  2. Thank you for including my card! <3 Those stickers are fun and I like that wooden heart as well. Valentines season is one of my favorites too. My mom used to do the same thing for my sister and I which I always thought was so sweet. She still did it when I was in college and would send me a big box full of Valentine's treats plus a few fun things. It was always the perfect pick me up in the middle of winter.

  4. It's the same with me - I love the holiday, but I'm not a fan of all the neon pinks and sugary reds. That being said, what else is there to look forward to in February? Which is why I find myself putting up decorations today for Valentine's Day.

    I found your blog from the hop, and I'm so excited to be your newest fan and follower! Let's be blog friends?

  8. I get really excited about Valentines, just because I like all the red, pink and hearts. Everytime I actually try and organise something with my boyfriend it does wrong though xo
