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
Valentine Love Note Station




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...


And Hey...
Have you entered the
Give Away with EpicLinen?

EpicLinen is a young company from Provence 
where you will find clothing accessories, 
and lovely linens for your home.





And while you're in the party mood today,
please visit my other Friday Party Pals:


Hope you'll join in for the party today,
Come link up your inspiring posts, vintage or new.
Please have a link within your post to be featured.



Lots of Valentine Hugs and Kisses,
