Valentine's Day Bar Cart & Heart Scewer DIY

As I've discussed before, I love being able to decorate my apartment as feminine as I want (like my gallery wall here). This bachelorette pad thing is something I try to take total advantage of because I know I won't be able to do it forever. This year, I'm feeling especially excited for Valentine's Day, and it shows! Over the weekend I added some fun, easy, lovey-dovey updates to my bar cart:

I made the little heart shaped straw toppers / drink skewers simply by cutting hearts out of construction paper and then gluing a toothpick in between 2 hearts. I think they are adorable! My XOXO pillow from Chapters Indigo (on major sale!) is also looking great with this theme! And I can't forget about my adorable 'Cherry on Top' cards by Ashley Brooke Designs. I had this one on my inspiration board and one day I opened it and found a hidden little love note from M. inside! He's so sweet.

Do you decorate for Valentine's Day?

Happy Valentine's Day

Hugs and Kisses to all of my wonderful blogging friends out there. Metaphorical kisses of course, it's flu season you crazy love birds.
Today's  Valentine's Day inspired house is an oldie but a goodie, and I couldn't resist sharing it in case some of you hadn't seen it before!

 I mean, it's definitely over the top, but I'm a little bit (a lot) in love with that dining room.
Maybe it will be my Valentine since the boy is miles away? Who am I kidding...the room is even further! Also, don't worry..this is a show house, so no one actually lives in it year round.
Wishing you all a day of happiness, love and smooches (real ones).
