Thanks ladies! Karen, I have to agree - my DH is pretty romantic and I get flowers quite often throughout the year - even on non-holidays! Prosperity, my colleagues at work do appreciate when it is my coffee week and the extras I do for them. I enjoy it and it is fun to have another table I can set! Luvs, the faux snow comes in packages labelled as such and is found in quite a few local stores around Christmas time. Kathleen, your snow is GONE??!! We will have ours for a long time yet - good thing we like the winter activites like skiing. I am anxious to get out my St. Pat's stuff too! Jane, not sure how "clever" I am at making the winter decor into Valentine decor - more like "lazy"!! Susan, I can't imagine winter with no snow! Sometimes, when I have to snowblow the driveway so many times, I think I might like to try it for awhile! Mo, everytime I go skiing, I wish I had my camera - it is so beautiful up there, especially on the sunny days which we seem to get a lot of lately. DD

Thanks, OA .... I don't know how many yrs now I've had that vine tree ... somewhere in the 10 yr vicinity at least. Anyway, I first saw a 'vine tree' @ a great Fall craft show in a nearby town that I go to every year. Some gal had a half dozen or so on display ... & I think her price was about $100 ... way too much for me to spend @that time. So, anyway, I dreamed of making a vine tree from our woods on a tomato cage or something, but it never happened. Then on a day trip with a couple of my best friends, we walked into a specialty gift shop & low & behold, here stood this vine tree ... for sale!! The owner said they used it in their displays but it was so big to store so they were just keeping their smaller one (probably about a 2') ...anyway, that vine tree went home with me & I've been decorating it for Fall, Christmas & Valentine's ever since. I love it & it's still going strong & I got it @a bargain price I thought was reasonable. ;-) ~~Jeanne S p.s. I think Jane & Party have both made their own!

DG...everything is so lovely! You have so many pretty decorations, especially the vintage valentines. I don't think I could keep ANY chocolate candy lasting till VDay if it were out for me to see everyday..that takes some will power. Your hoosier is decorated beautifully and the added garland hearts are a nice touch. The vignettes on your island are beautifully displayed and my favorite is the cloche too..it's lovely. I don't usually decorate for VDay..just a few things here and there, but after seeing all your lovely decorations, ...I'm inspired. jane

Jeanne, you are so on top of things and I Love All of it! Dollbaby is Adorable in her Valentine jacket. Her tray scape is beautiful. Buffet and vine tree, gorgeous as always! And Yes, your pictures are top notch! Thanks for getting me Motivated. Will see what I can get to and try to join in on Some Valentine decor here. Punk
