Valentine Tree

This year I decorated my vintage pink bottle brush tree for Valentine's Day with  pastel pink & baby blue ornaments and just a touch of red.
I found my blingy ornaments at At Home  (formerly Garden Ridge) in the 75% off isle.   The big baby blue round ones were $2 and the rest were about $1 each.    
I didn't decorate my pink bottle brush tree last year,   but this is how it looked the year before when it was in the entry way.

I thought some  big diamond rings would be fun to use on the Valentine tree as lots of couples get engaged on Valentines Day.   When these rings are not on the tree,   I use them year round as napkin rings.   

Yes.....you do see some Christmas that is still out in the upper left corner of the photo....don't judge me...lol!

At the very top of the tree is a big blue ring that I will use as a napkin ring after Valentines Day  (also from At Home)  I bought all they had,  which was 5.      

I completed my Valentine vignette with a Love sign,  a couple of rose plates,  a wooden Be Mine sign,  and my cherub bust.  You've seen her many times,   I made her Valentine crown a couple of years ago from a party hat  that came from the Dollar Tree.

We are still working on the kitchen.....be back soon to show you the progress!
