I’m a simple gal when it comes to Valentine’s day, I do not request for much, except for maybe some chocolate covered strawberries, and I am not much on decorating for it either.
Decorating for this holiday, is especially hard for me since I am not a fan of the color red or the combination of red and pink. No offense to all those that love the color red! I am just about my neutrals, as you can see throughout my blog. Even for Christmas, I keep the red to the minimum.
This being said…it is just too hard for me to buy decor for this Holiday without it clashing with my decorations or looking a little….cheesy.
Okay I said it…Valentine’s day is cheesy!
Most of the decorations they sell in the stores look like they should be in a Kindergarten classroom. Which is probably why my son would appreciate me hanging cardboard hearts on the walls and some window sticky’s…I just can’t force myself to buy them.
So, this year I had to come up with something so that the kids got in the spirit of V’day…and the decorations would work with my decor. Luckily, Michael’s craft store had just the products I was looking for.

Thanks B!
I am definitely not a huge fan of Valentines Decor either, so I LOVE this! And especially how it brings in some natural elements- one of my favorite things to do. Beautiful!
Thanks so much…can’t go wrong with natural elements.
I’m not a huge red and pink decorating fan either, but this wreath is just my style. Simply beautiful!
Thanks so much Jamie! Love you style : )
I’m a super fan of neutral decor throughout the year and this totally rocks it! Just love that hint of green, like a reminder that Spring is right around the corner!
So pretty! I’m a big fan of subtle Valentine’s decor – all that red and pink stuff is just too much for me! Loving the moss as an alternative 🙂
I adore this! like a LOT! I love working with moss on projects and this is perfect! I am with erica, I dont really care to do the bright red and pink but things like this totally works in my home! I would love it if you stopped over and linked up at Totally Terrific Tuesday! 🙂 http://www.liverandomlysimple.com

I totally agree with most Valentine decorations being tacky!! Your wreath is the opposite of tacky though…it’s gorgeous!!
