Here we are in the pretty dreary days of winter with the possibility of six more weeks ahead of us, however, we have the opportunity to add some sparkle and cheeriness to our homes, thanks to Valentine’s Day, just around the corner!

I’ve added just a few touches here and there. It’s nothing grand, but enough to change things up a bit in the entry way, living room and kitchen.

A few years ago, I found a wooden “X” and “O” marked way down at Hobby Lobby and realized they’d be perfect for Valentine’s Day! The heart banner came from Target a few years ago.
