Happy Valentine’s Day and welcome to Thursday Favorite Things! I am so happy to be joining Katherine at Katherine’s Corner and a wonderful group of blogging friends as a co-hostess for this fantastic weekly link party for bloggers and blog readers too! If you are looking to grow your blog, make new friends, and be inspired each week, this is the place to be. *Bloggers: If you would like a chance to be featured, please leave me a comment with the number of your link up. We can’t wait to see what you have to share this week! (If you missed last week’s party you can find it here.
To get the party started, let’s take a look at what I have been up to recently:
Easy to Love DIY Valentine Gnomes
One of my all time favorite Valentine’s Day crafts are these adorable DIY Valentine Gnomes. They are so inexpensive, easy to make, and easy to love!
Last Friday I joined 20+ bloggers for a fun Valentine’s Tablescape Hop. I was feeling a little under the weather, so I shared a round-up of Five Inspiring Valentine Tablescapes. They are truly stunning!
Five Inspiring Valentine Tablescapes
For this week’s Pin Away Wednesday series I shared highlights from my “Be My Valentine” Pinterest board. In addition to Valentine’s Day decor and collectibles, I love pinning romantic hearts, shabby chic vignettes, and pretty things to this lovely board. If you are a romantic at heart you will love this board!
Yesterday I joined the Thrifty Chicks for our February challenge: “Something You Love.” Since I love making wreaths I shared my latest DIY Neutral Farmhouse Heart Rag Wreath. Even though this wreath is perfect for Valentine’s Day, it can also be used year round since it is neutral. Be sure to check out the tutorial to see how easy it is to make a rag wreath!

HAPPY LOVE DAY, Amber! Your gnomes are frackin adorable! Omg. Hope you are well. Happily sharing two timely topics at yer shindig today: decluttering (at #63) and peaceful encouragement from nature (#64). It’s a joy to share them with your audience and in small ways, spread ripples of encouragement and hope. Thanks for hosting, and I wish you fierce grace and hidden peace on this February morn. p.s. I love collecting vintage Valentine’s and this year decorated a little tabletop winter tree with them. 🙂

February 14, 2019 at 12:33 pmHi Amber,
February 14, 2019 at 3:21 pmThank you so much for featuring my versatile little washboard this week. I really appreciate it! Yours is my favorite blog party and I can’t wait to see what’s new this week. I just need more hours in the day to keep up with all the great ideas shared here! This week I am #145 – chickens instead of washboards! Happy Valentine’s Day, Cheryl
Amber, I started with #150 on my Scottie dog, fuzzy funny Valentine who a week ago I almost lost — a story with a happy ending. Hubby and I are staying in today to care for Fibber McGee. #152 is Meet Me at the Eiffel Table Valentine, which will actually bee Pittsburgh tonight! And #153 is a birthday party tablescape for Abe and George.

Thanks again and I hope you have a wonderful Valentine's with your family,
