I started with a

 clearance  priced, 

craft store,  dark, all wood frame &

a little Annie Sloan Chalk Paint…in

French Linen.  Next, I  had a

 chalkboard cut to fit here

and…

Voila! 

Our new oversized, 

 gorgeous gray chalk board, 

just in time for,


Valentine’s Day. 

Decided to pull together

 a simple,

Valentine’s Day side table to- go-with.

 I  really crave, fresh,  fun colors this time of year.

As you can see my crush on

blush  continues so,

I went with a blush, cream & gold

color palette.  Love this

gold & cream CHEVRON paper runner by

Cake Kitchen Papers.  It comes in a 50-foot roll and you

simply cut it to fit! Especially like it, teamed up with 

that new lattice pattern tray, I picked up at

Target & primrose pots,

dressed up in inexpensive

craft store, scalloped

white cardstock containers.

Couldn’t resist the white

ranunculus, adore ranunculus! You?

Couldn’t resist these  either…

little raspberry & almond macaroons resting

on a gold tray, individually wrapped, of course.

And did you see what is 

underfoot???

an all wool,  Flokati rug! 

Phyllis,  from the beautiful blog

Henhurst Interiors, featured it

in a post and I fell in love.

Don’t you just want to run 

your toes through it?! Check it out here!

It’s  a great deal too! Be sure to bring a

World Market coupon for extra savings! 

Ahhh….

It’s the season of  l~o~v~e.

I’m getting

ready…

are you?
