Be Inspired #126: Celebrating Love

Happy Valentine's Day!

I'm sending you a little note today
 just to let you all know how much you are loved and appreciated.


In keeping with the day,
 I wanted to highlight some of the links that shared a romantic,
 sweet, and loving theme. 

I "fell in love" with this wonderful vintage window
 and Valentine's Day Mantel from Bella's Rose Cottage.



This sweet lace confection started out as a felted cuff bracelet,
 but after some contemplation, became a romantic
Needle Case from Kadee Willow.




Jamie from Better With Age
created this fun Valentine-y Heart Banner,
and just look who made a cameo appearance!



Jeanette from Creating a Life encouraged her kiddos to
express their feelings and creativity with this




Marissa from Becoming Kindred, with her girls, created a 
Woodland Valentine Mantel in their Dining Room.
LOVE that moss heart!



I just had to share this precious image of one of the latest creations
 from our talented friend Rosemary, from Villa Barnes,
Birdie Crowns

...can it get any cuter?


I've heard that it takes months to perfect 
these yummy looking Chocolate Macaroons.
Jennifer from Town and Country Living
shares the scoop on her first batch.


My mouth is watering just looking at these...
