Valentine’s Mantel

I’ve enjoyed sharing three Valentine’s crafts over the past two weeks and am excited to share my finished mantel. 




The red candles have a cherry scent that is quite pleasant. I usually find candles a bit strong, but these are quite pleasant.

All of the vases are vintage with the exception of the glass votives and the small silver votive.

I usually don’t usually do a themed mantel for Valentine’s Day but am quite enjoying this.

The big day will be here before we know it.  I have a feeling that there won’t be much celebrating on Valentine’s Day for us.  I’m on the tennis court until 6 pm and then Mr. SP is in two tennis contracts starting at 6 pm and won’t be finished until 9 pm.  By then I’ll be passed out on the sofa!  Our celebration just might take place on February 13. 

What about you?  Do you have big Valentine plans?

Your mantel looks fantastic! I love the hearts that you made! And all the candles look so romantic!

Good luck on the 14th. I wouldn't be up to celebrating that evening either!!

I think all the pink and red looks lovely. Very cheerful. We don't really celebrate Valentine's Day...although we probably should. A dinner out would be nice!
