My Valentine Decor

When I moved into my new home 11 months ago, I found a small wall space near my front door that I thought would be the perfect place to decorate for seasonal or holiday celebrations.  Well now I know that I sorely lack decorating talent!  My attempts at making this space fun and festive have turned out to be boring and sparse!
NEW GOAL FOR 2011-get some decorating inspiration and know-how!
(Oh, really my list of self-improvement needs is turning into a novel!)
Here are a few shots of my current Valentine inspired table.  Rather boring...

My coffee filter wreath
You can find the tutorial on how to make this here:

Have I mentioned my addiction to Hershey Kisses? My most favorite candy ever!

That is a picture of my husband and I taken about 100 (really 12) years ago.



You can find the instructions on making this cute frame here:

This is is a piece of ribbon wrapped around the lamp shade and secured with a brooch I've had forever.



It really is a bit of a snooze fest isn't it...
I'm going to improve greatly for St. Patrick's Day! 
Green here I come!
