I am a Victorian Soul, who lives in a small townhouse that was built in the mid 1970's, not a huge Mega Mansion!! I just recently lost my Hubby Joe, who was a Retired Letter Carrier. I worked night shift as an RN on a Hospital based Rehabilitation( Physical Medicine) Unit for 37 years before I had Knee Replacement Surgery and officially Retired in 2019 after 41 years working in Direct Patient Care ... I am so glad that we retired at 62 years of age and got to spend that time together before he passed....I still do love Retirement!!!!

I DABBLE IN A BIT OF THIS AND THAT!!!!

Dining Room Tree and Valentine Decor, Part 2, 2016

Welcome to Part 2 of my Dining Room Valentine Decorations!!

In Part 1, I shared how I decorated the Dining Room Buffet........
Click HERE if you missed that post.......

Today, I am sharing my Dining Room Valentine Tree along with a few other decorations in the Dining Room........
I stripped down the Tree after Christmas, leaving the lights, baby's breath and white fluffy garland on the Tree........
I forgot to take a photo of the Tree with the clear and pink rose lights that I added........
You can see how they light up in this photo......
 I love to use bows as toppers for my Trees and I made this one out of a pink and gold shimmery ribbon.......
   I also tucked a few pink heart picks into the top of the Tree......
  I added pink beaded garland.......
 I decorated the Tree with lots of Heart ornaments, angel ( cupid  like) ornaments, white roses tucked in the Tree and 3 tea pot ornaments that hold photos of my Dad with each of my sons when they were babies and one of my Mom........
Some close ups........
A heart that I made.....
This is the last time that this particular Tree will grace this corner in the Dining Room........
I am giving the Living Room Tree to my son Jim and our daughter in love, Danielle and then this Tree will be used in the Living Room starting next Fall when I decorate it for Autumn.....

I bought a new 7 foot pencil thin Tree for this corner in the Dining Room and it will make it's debut next Christmas!!
At the base of the Tree is a Tree Skirt that I made and a candy Heart Box that I embellished......
 Next to the Tree is a table......
 I placed a Heart box in the crystal bowl.......
 Over in the other corner by the Kitchen......
 The top of the Curio......
A pretty Heart.......
Another Heart.....
The pink rose swag is here all the time......
On top of the other Curio.......
I brought back down my Thomas Kinkade Pink Ladies after putting them in the Craft Room for Christmas.......
A few heart picks added to the flowers in the crystal vase.....
The top of the Hutch.........
Victorian and Pink Ladies......
Heart boxes that I embellished.......
Hanging on one of the windows, dividing the Living Room and the Dining Room.......
A cute plaque.......
I left out this wreath after Christmas that I made..........
And I always decorate the chandy!!
I hung pink hearts and vintage looking Valentine tags that I embellished........
There are also some gold hearts hanging in the center of the chandy.......
And that is how I decorated the Dining Room for Valentine's Day!!!!

I leave up my Valentine's Day and Winter Decorations until the end of February because February is Heart Month as deemed by the American Heart Association!!

I am still not done sharing my Valentine's decorations.....

In my next post, I will share a few Valentine touches in the Kitchen.........
  And I still have to show you the Powder Room decorated for Winter and Valentine's Day!!
 This is what it looked like here in NEPA after a few inches of snow fell early in the morning a few days ago......
 And with temps. in the single digits and wind chill factors as low as -20 degrees, we still are in the Winter Season here!!


 I hope you will come by and visit  again!!
