A Neutral Nod to Cupid and St. Valentine

I have tubs of pinks and reds

 for St. Valentine's Day decorating, 

but this year I went almost all white/neutral...

just a touch, just a subtle nod to cupid and his Day of Love.

Here is my beloved metal and glass chippy terrarium box

 I keep out year round and just change up what's inside.

 Sometimes it contains pinecones, champagne corks, little herbs,  decorative glass or shells....today it is filled with cute mini

 Frenchie heart-shaped linen pillows.

Sometimes it can be as easy as placing cut wooden hearts

 inside a favorite container.

I found these wooden hearts at GW last year

 and was saving to do some Valentine craftingwith them.....

put them away and forgot all about them...

so they're doing the job in their cute raw state this time!

I like it so much I may just keep it that way. : - )

It's still completely deeply snowy outside
 so I have kept back a few winter's pine cones in my decor -

here's a few tiny ones inside a vintage porcelain
 cherub "shell" vessel along with a little angel heart.

My sweet tea society sister-friend Mary D

 gave me these sweet cherub porcelain containers.

(She's too good to me, seriously.)

They're quite romantic and "French inspired!"

Last year I shared how Cupid stamped French triple-milled soaps

on a plate can look - simply delightful - but it is an old pic because I

used them right up - and cannot find new ones anywhere!

As always, your visit is appreciated.
