pretty and pink

I don’t usually decorate for Valentine’s day.

But it’s my turn to host the dinner for our monthly Box Club group and since it’s so close to V-Day I couldn’t resist getting girly with my décor. Remember, I don’t have girls, so I never get to decorate with pink and frilly around my house.

So I’m loving it.

And along with the shabby chic tablescape I’ve got planned, I thought I’d add a few special touches in the dining room.

This banner was so simple I had to share it with you. And the best part is that it costs pennies to make because all you need is crepe paper and string. You can make it as full as you like, or with any colors you choose.

I also couldn’t resist hanging a few paper doilies from the chandelier.

Because what’s Valentine’s Day without lacy, heart shaped doilies?

Personally I think my glass of wine will taste better when I’ve got hearts dangling in my face.

I’ll post more photos of this room and my tablescape soon.

Bye for now,

xoxo
