Valentine’s Day Vignette

Not gonna lie– I was pretty lazy with my Valentine’s Day decorations this year.  I blame Christmas.  Christmas exhausts the decorating portion of my brain.

Seriously, I think I spent a total of 10 minutes on this vignette.  You won’t offend me if you say that it looks like I spent 10 minutes on it.  Well, maybe you will, so just keep that to yourself.


I also think this is a good time to tell you that I have an obsession.  An obsession with hobnail glass, especially milk glass.  Yep.  I love it.  If hobnail glass was a person we’d be best friends.  I love it so much I met a man in the parking lot of a McDonald’s to buy a turquoise hobnail cream and sugar set off of him.  Did our transaction resemble a drug deal?  Hmm, probably.  Did I care?  Heck no!  It’s Fenton, it’s rare, and now it’s mine.  All mine.  


I thought that Valentine’s Day would be the perfect opportunity to showcase my hobnail milk glass obsession collection.  So I rounded up all most of my milk glass and got to work.  I grabbed the manzanita branch from my Christmas centerpiece and slapped it in a milk glass vase.  Then I added the pink heart ornaments– a Hobby Lobby Valentine’s Day clearance find from last year.  I plopped some leftover artificial pink peonies from our wedding in the vases, and I threw some conversation hearts in the bowls.  I went the extra mile and added some tea lights for dramatic effect.



How did you decorate for Valentine’s Day this year?

  4. I think this looks really pretty and quite sweet. Perfect for V-Day. You have such great light in your home, too. Tons of natural light, which just makes everything prettier. 😉

    Loving the glass. I see it in antique stores a lot, but like most things, I don’t know what I’d do with it. Love this arrangement.
