Valentine's Day Table

This post is definitely not my typical blog.  I have many loves and one of them is decorating.  Today I give you a glimpse of my latest obsession, my Valentine's table.  

I've never had Valentine decorations before and when I set out to find the perfect dishes I was surprised to discover how limited my choices would be.  Because of this challenge I have decided to pass along my findings so no one else has to suffer and search in vain.  

Luckily some of my Christmas dishes were able to pull double duty and assist in my quest.  The beaded chargers, Scarlett Dinner Plates, red Diamond Etched Goblets, and Apple Red Hemstitch Napkins were all purchased at Pier 1 for my Christmas table.  I added the Red Gingham Napkins, also from Pier 1 Imports, to compliment my Valentines theme.  The zebra and black ribbon used to tie the napkins was an after Christmas steal at 90% off from Hobby Lobby!  The red table runner was on clearance at Crate&Barrel and the darling heart shaped salad plates are a result of several trips to my beloved Hobby Lobby with my faithful 40% off coupons close at hand.  








Last but certainly not least is the centerpiece.  The GRAND BRASSERIE CAST ALUMINUM TRAY was a gift from my mother purchased at Restoration Hardware.  This was also part of my Christmas table but converted nicely for Valentine's Day.  The candles, rose petals, and red glitter hearts are from Hobby Lobby and the wicker hearts are from Pier 1 Imports.  If you are in search of the perfect Valentine's decor I wish you luck and would be happy to answer any questions you may have.  I pray your home is filled with love!
