The red house was a special Thrift Store find so I’ll show you a quick before photo. When I bought it, I put it on top of a FOLK magazine with an old hand painted toy truck!

Hi Miss Lavender Dreams,

Please tell Wendy I need a "spring" picture of her for my Blog. Maybe you can help and take her picture.

No pressure, but spring is just around the corner - (hint).

Hugs,
Prudence ♥

You know I'm loving all your Valentine decor. I recognize a few of those goodies. I'm so glad you found a little red house too. I know it was on your thrifting list!

Valentine hugs!

You surely have a lot of lovely bits and pieces to display. I've just had a go at my first Valentines tree so perhaps in a few years I might have acquired a better selection. I realise I have a lot to catch up with when I see other blogs! That's why I'm so enjoying having my world widened. Thank you. Joan

Linda @ A La Carte said...

Diane said...

Such sweet decorations! Love that little red house and all of the Valentines. Hope your Valentine's Day is as special as your post!

Della said...

I have a few hearts, and a really sweet Valentine! Your lanai is so pretty and ready for lots of love!

Elizabeth said...

very pretty! I have not decorated any for Valentines Day yet, guess I better hurry and get to it!

Anonymous said...

Oh, I'd love to visit with you and spend time in your lanai, Diane. Love all your Valentine goodies. I have to catch up this week with a few more reds and hearts. I seemed to have gone in another direction this year with Somewhere in Time and the Message from the Sea flip-flops. Speaking of those flip-flops, a little seagull told me YOU are the winner of one. ;) Somehow the sea knows those who truly love it. ;)

I have your forwarding info and I should mail those out to you this Saturday, if not sooner.
Happy Valentine's, my friend.
XOXO's!
