~Valentine Tree~

So I have really been missing the Christmas trees since I took them down. I keep telling hubby the house seems bare and sad now. Definitely ready for a make-over to brighten things up just waiting for spring, better weather, more money, etc. etc. etc....anyway in the mean time I decided to put one tree back up. Don't panic, it's just a small one. Since I don't have a lot of decorations for Valentines Day I decided to make a few fabric hearts and decorate the tree with them. This was a quick and fun project and I think it turned out cute. I love having the lights plugged in at night. I'm thinking I may keep this tree up all year and change the decorations for each holiday or season.
Have a great day everyone and thanks for stopping by:) ~Hugs~ Denise

Happy New Year!!! I hope you have all had a wonderful Christmas and are looking forward to the new year!! We had a great Christmas season filled with family and friends. Spending time together as a family has been the best and I must admit I was a little sad to send the kids back to school today. I have been putting away the Christmas decorations and the house looks a little bare now. I'm thinking a shopping trip is in order:) Any way, I wanted to share a picture of the quilt that I made this year for my sweet daughter in law Kaylee:
Here she is Christmas morning after opening her quilt. (I think she likes it!)
I'm now ready to start some new projects. Like always I have a list of home improvements that I want to do as well as sewing and craft projects. 2013 promises to be another busy year! I'm excited to get started! I want to wish all of my blogging friends a very HAPPY NEW YEAR! I will be visiting your blogs often. You always inspire me and for that I say THANK YOU! See you all soon, ~Hugs~ Denise
