Preparing for V-Day…

Standard

We’re approaching the first weekend of February…where has the time gone?  I feel like we were just celebrating New Years!  But alas, time marches on…which means that all too sappy & sweet holiday otherwise known as Valentine’s Day is just around the corner! 

I really do enjoy V-Day even though I’m usually single for it!  I wish I could still hand out hand-written valentines & candy to my coworkers like we used to do back in elementary school! 

So in honor of the impending holiday I decided to do a little round-up of Valentine’s Day/Love-themed tidbits from around the web to get us all in the mood:

Sweet collaboration of True Love in Pictures…*sigh*

I adore this simple, but chic print!

I’m obsessed with this love song…and the way he looks at his wife as he sings it!

Must try making this “gem” of a DIY valentine.

Would you care to receive any of these gifts for V-Day (if you’re a woman)?

Such a beautiful idea…love letters to your future spouse.

Guide to aphrodisiacs and some recipes to boot!

A few winter date ideas…that won’t break the bank!

Spark some romance with these DIY Valentine luminaries.

Some decoration inspiration for V-Day!

Ok, ok, I’m done…wouldn’t want you to gag from all this mushy love stuff!!

Hope you all have a great Friday!

Lights Will Guide You…

Standard

And the tears come streaming down your face
When you lose something you can’t replace
When you love someone but it goes to waste
Could it be worse?
 
Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you
~Coldplay, “Fix You”
 

Coldplay frontman Chris Martin wrote this powerful song for his wife Gwenyth Paltrow after she lost her father!  I hope one day I can give a gift with that kind of strength, support & love to my friends & family!
