Then why not two?
You can see I used my vintage RC Cola crates and my ever present candle sticks. Though they never have an actual candle in them, they are huge favorite of mine and are always out somewhere in the house.
Then, I sort of figured if I stole the plate… that the little votive holder would be lonely, so I stole it too.
(that poor vignette is now dead)
The mantel needed the “sparkle” so it sacrificed itself.
So selfless!!
And there you have it.
My Valentine’s Day Mantel.
Hope you are not tired of the coffee filter wreath.
It goes with everything.
Best wreath I have ever made!
I’ll tell you what I am tired of…
That aqua wall!!!
Great in person. Love it. I do.
But… a real pain to take a decent photo of.
I think it’s on it’s last legs.
Well, I know it’s on it’s last legs.
(I have an inside source)
I’ll be showing you what I’ve got going on
over here… soon 😉

Thanks for sharing your adorable Valentine mantle with us, Shannon. So many cute details! I saw your post over at Mod Monday Mix party.
So pretty! I really need to get busy and make some decorations for Valentines Day. Keep inspiring!
So cute Shannon!!!
I missed this when I was looking through the linkies last night. Adorable. I just added it to my wrap up post and I also featured it on my FB page.

Such a darling mantel! Super cute details for Valentine’s day. (I’m especially loving the mini tree!)
It’s gorgeous! I LOVE your burlap banner, and the crates, and oh my… the Raggedy Ann is the best. Fabulous job! Have a great weekend!

I love, love, love your mantel…the crates, the plates, the glitter, the candlesticks with cookie cutters, the raggedy ann dolls, the colors…all of it!
Which island were you on when you went to Hawaii? I used to live there for several years. Your diy art, (everything you do is art, by the way), is fabulous! You are such an inspiration! I hope you have a wonderful weekend! Kelly x0x0
So cute, Shannon! Totally full of Valentiney lovey-dovey-ness! The pops of red against your aqua wall are stunning. Love, love… Yeah, you get the point… Wait! LOVE!!!!!
