I have one more Valentine project to share with you. I updated my door basket from Christmas and turned it into a Valentine display.
This basket has been on our front door since Christmas and looks a bit weathered, but I left it as is and just added some Valentine hearts. I think it looks kind of like a FTD bouquet wannabe but I still like it.
This is how it looked at Christmas. We have a small overhang on the front, but it rains here so much that the basket does look a little roughed up compared to before. I wanted to repurpose it for Valentine's day.
I cut out a few hearts and stamped them with my french script stamp. I made a small banner for the front and added some heart picks to the rest of the basket. I thought the Christmas and Valentine picks worked well together. The bow was made from a strip of the basket.
I like the contrast of the white and the red hearts. This was so easy to put together. Everything was already done, all I had to add were the hearts. I love a quick project.
Red hearts and berries go well together. Hubs thought it looked really cute too.
I love the little white hearts as well. So now I have a red Valentine door and pink hearts on my mantel. Wishing you a sweet Valentine's day!
Thanks for visiting.

Well, this just turned out adorable! I love the fact that you repurposed a Chrismtas item instead of going out and buying something new! Perfect! Thank you for sharing with us at TTF and Happy Valentine's Day!

I love it!! It may look weathered to you, but to me it looks perfect! And I love a simple and fun transition from Christmas to Valentine's Day always. I did some of that too.
Blessings!
