Couldn't put it away!

I love my mercury glass balls, pinecones and candleholders and the color red. A perfect opportunity to keep those things out after Christmas is a Valentine display. I used my tall glass vases that were bought at the dollar store and epoxied onto different bases, other romantic looking candlesticks, a silver easel, frames and the replicas of the places where my husband and I were married and the where my parents were married, to display the vintage Valentine cards that I had.
This filligree and jeweled ornament was purchased after Christmas


I loved this card, because although it is a Valentine, it had different colors, then what one would normally see for Valentine's Day.
