Valentine Garland

For you see, each day I love you more
Today more than yesterday and less than tomorrow.
~Rosemonde Gerard


We have made a valentine garland found here via vlijtig.

I love this garland because at first glance it seems such a plain and simple garland made of hearts.  Yes, anyone could do that and probably will.

Yet this one is special because it has some sweet little cutouts, which allow light in, through and around.

Look at the interplay of light achieved when you hang it in just the right place, let it swirl in the breeze as you walk by, or even give it a gentle twirl.  Oh so pretty!

This one is for my little Valentine born just over 5 years ago - my precious Ess.  How she loves it hanging in her doorway.

  1. This is truly beautiful. Everything on here always is (you know I know that), but probably because of the new blog theme, it's all highlighted a bit better :) Loadsaluv
