Quick Valentine Vignette

I did a quick Valentine vignette on the kitchen counter this morning.  It started with a gorgeous tiered plate stand that belonged to my mother.  I added a cloche to the top of it....
Then,  I put some faux cherries under the cloche...

 made some paper 'cupcakes'   (just put shredded paper in a cupcake holder)   and added some candy garland.

I had so much fun making paper 'cupcakes' that I made some for my new cupcake holder....


I got this beauty the other day at HL ...80% off...

49.99..you're kidding , right????   9.99, now that's more like it!

I had this card holder out for Valentines cards and decided to use it to display these vintage pot holders.

Have a Happy Valentines Day!

  4. What a pretty vignette! I especially love the vintage pot holders. I think they are what originally brought me to your blog. I have lots of plain doilies and have been making dishclothes and towels for gifts, but I think I will have to visit ravelry for some vintage potholder patterns and do some just for me. I often buy out all the cotton yarn at a local thrift stor so I have lots of off white- my favorite, but I really like the crisp freshness of your whites accenting the colors.
