I love Valentine's Day. I've loved it since grade school. I always thought that making the container to bring your Valentines home in was the best art project of the year. If only I had known about garlands way back when. I would have strung my Valentines all over the house. Heck, I probably would have borrowed my brothers' Valentines and strung them up everywhere too. Can you imagine? These cute Valentines were from my Valentine swap. Oh...aren't they just so cute hanging all together!
Happy Pink Saturday. Happy Valentines weekend! Hope your days are filled with chocolate and love, lots and lots of love.
Oh Em Gee! This looks so cute! I loved making my Valentine Boxes and couldn't wait to take them to school to show them off. How sad that most kids today will never know the pure JOY that comes from creating a Valentine box. Don't you wish you had every Valentine you received in elementary school? Have a wonderful PINK Saturday and a Happy Valentines Day! Nan

Oh me too! I still have vivid memories of covering those boxes in white and pasting the red and pink hearts on them. I'm so very fond of this holiday. I love your garland! Too cute!
Happy V Day!

Wait one darn minute Betty... I didn't know you were diabetic and that you were having eye problems????
I'm soooooo sorry to hear this. But.. you LOVE your crafts sooo much. I know what your talking about, because one of the ladies in my mom's place just had that done to her eye. She's on her 6th zap. She's doing well actually. My mom has macular degeneration, but she's 92 and nothing can be done for her.
I pray you my dear friend, you know that ; )
Love You and Happy VD Betty.
Love ME

What a glorious collection of hearts! Love love love them! Just as good as your Christmas collection, but so different! You get to decorate twice a year - must try that.... Thank you so much for visiting and leaving a comment. Sorry I'm late, I was teaching yesterday (Saturday) and we've been out for Valentine's lunch today (Sunday) so only just started visiting! Happy Pink Weekend, and hugs from the UK.

Aren't you smart making a garland!!? Love all your Valentines, Betty. What a talented blog world we're in! Happy Valentine's Day to you. xoxo Nancy

Why didn't we know about garlands back then???? So cheerful! I remember the pitter-patter of my heart on Valentine's. There would always be one boy in the class that I would wonder if I would get a 'special' card from. Oh the suspense. LOL Happy Valentine's, Betty.

Happy Pink Saturday and Happy Valentine's Day, dear Betty. I'm still out visiting and enjoying all of the love.
I do love valentines, and it would be wonderful we had all of them we received years ago.♥
