The Valentine Ornaments Have Arrived!

Yesterday, I received my box full of Valentine sweetness from Natalea. The ornament swap was great fun and this group of 10 girls made some really pretty Valentine Ornaments. Here is my ornament that I gave you a sneak peak of in an earlier post. Lots of gold glitter, pink tulle, birds, crowns, buttons, ruffled crepe paper, oh my!

The box that came was filled with little boxes and bags and decorated tags from each of the ornament designers. I decided to hang the ornaments where I could see them the most often...in my kitchen window.
I covered a tension rod with tulle and hung each ornament from the rod. They are so sweet to look at. The girls did a fantastic job. Here are some close ups.
Natalea, thanks again for the invitation to join in your Valentine Swap! I will enjoy these ornaments for years to come. I hope you all enjoyed my new Valentine window.
Hugs and Kisses,
Tammy

Tammy, those are so pretty and I love that you hung them from the kitchen window. I didn't do a Valentine swap this year because I had too much on my plate so to speak but maybe next year. Have a super great week. xo Lynn
