Valentine's Mantle!


I got bit by the creativity bug one day this week and decided to decorate for Valentine's Day! I love how everything turned out and the best thing about it is that I only spent $2.50 on the whole thing! Everything I used I already had around the house besides the little white vases & I found them in the Target dollar bins for $2.50.


Heart Wreath: wreath form I've had since last year & awesome tissue fringe I also had in my craft closet!
Frame: frame from my bedroom, background is a red chevron treat bag that I had left over from Christmas, hearts cut out of pink vinyl with my Silhouette.
Rag Garland: leftover from last year!

Vases: $2.50 from Target, paper straws that I had from previous parties.
14 Sign: 2 pieces of wood that I got from one of my brother-in-law's projects, paint from previous projects, 14 stencil cut with my Silhouette. First I glued the 2 boards together & painted them white & let them dry.  Then I applied the stencil & painted the board pink. After it dried I removed the stencil and sanded it slightly to get the distressed look & that was all!
Candle Sticks: Stay on the mantle year long.
