Living Room Valentine Tree, 2017

Welcome!!
Today I want to share one of the Valentine's Day Trees in the Living Room......

I decided to keep up the Tree and platform in the Living Room....

This is how it was decorated for Christmas.......
And this is how it looks now.........
Decorated for Valentine's Day and American Heart Month.......
I stripped the Tree down to just the lights and started over from there......

I topped it off with a bow made out of red velvet ribbon with gold backing........
There are streamers of ribbon on the Tree......
 I decorated this Tree with lots of heart ornaments and cherub ornaments......
 I used 2 different types of beaded garlands........
An ivory one with roses embossed on it and a gold and crystal one.......
All different kinds of heart onraments.......
Gold and red glittered roses ornaments bought at Big Lot's last year......
I also added a red glittered heart string garland........
Some vintage style paper ornaments.......
Some heart ornaments that I made......
Gold cherub ornaments..........
 Vintage style Valentine tags laced in gold framed ornaments........
Wrapped around the Tree is a red heart wired garland.......
This Tree will stay decorated like this for the rest of February because February is American Heart Month......
I also decorated underneath the Tree on the Platform......
On the left of the Tree is a pedestal with a vase of red velvet roses and gold leaves.......
Underneath the pedestal is a Bearington Bear and a Bearington Squirrel.......
2 of the candy heart boxes that I embellished a few years ago.......
A Love sign........

I placed a runner made out of Valentine fabric in the front od f the platform and scattered red and gold ornaments about the platform.......
Over to the center......
Another Bearington Bear and more embellished heart boxes.......
A cherub sits in front of the bear with more bears on each side......
And another embellished heart box in front........
Over on the other side, sitting on a bench........
More Bearington Bears and a dapper looking snow man.......
On the side of the platform is another candy heart box that I filled with red velvet roses......
Vintage style Valentine cards are scattered about the platform......
I will be sharing how this Tree looks at night in a future post........

It is still very much Winter here in NEPA!!

They were originally calling for this on Wednesday, Feb. 8th into Feb. 9th........

Then it changed to this......
And we ended with this.....7 inches!!!
Here is what it looked like around 6:15am on Thursday morning.......
Look at the bird bath!!
And a bird house.......
I love the solar lights......
And Joe went out to play........
Looking down the side walk......
After he shoveled.......
And knocking the snow off the awning in the back yard......
 I don't think we will be seeing any signs of Spring around here soon!

In my next post, I will be sharing the rest of the Living Room, including 2 more Trees........
  So I hope you will come by and visit  again!!

And thanks to those who took the time out of their busy day to spend a little bit of time with me!!

  5. Wow, that is a lot of snow, but it sure looks pretty. We've had very little snow only a couple ice storms this year . . I'd much rather have the snow. Your red Valentine's Tree is stunning! I love stopping by to see your decorated trees :) Take care of you and Joe!

  9. I just can't imagine the amount of ornaments you have, these are so pretty and love the vintage images and look of it, those teddy bears are way too cute, my favorite are the hearts filled with roses!! Wow that is something the amount of snow you got, we didn't get more than a few dustings this year which is really out of the norm, but we did get our share of rain.

  10. You have a lot of very different and interesting decorative items. I have to admit, I would love to see your storage system since that's always something I'm working on. Organizational tips for those of us who enjoy decorating?

  13. Debbie, I love all of the different hearts on your Valentine tree. The snow photos are so pretty--you have your own winter wonderland! Thank you for sharing @Vintage Charm!

  14. Debbie, I had a friend who used to keep her tree in her family room up all year long. She had once been a teacher and use to decorating for each holiday, she simply did it on her tree. It was always so delightful to see. Yours screams victorian, how exquisite! You got snow, I got 80 degrees! It should be snowing here :) thanks for partying at TADA!

  15. I could look at your decor all day! The weather is crazy. I'm in Illinois and it's supposed to be close to 80 tomorrow! Thank you for sharing with us at Funtastic Friday, Debbie!
