"Love Your Home"

Happy Valentine's Day!  Thought I'd share a few ways to treat your home (and yourself) on this special day.  I know it's not Fab Five Friday, but here are my Top 5 ways to indulge your home. 

  1.  Wallflowers

  
                                     

                                   Bath and Body Works



  

Bath and Body Works

• I swear by Bath and Body Works wallflowers.  My secret for creating an aromatic dwelling:  multiple plug-ins with the same sent.  My fragrance of choice is Cinnamon and Clove Buds.  Guests always comment that it smells so good as soon as they walk in the door. 

2.  A Red Phone



Home Decorators

• Face it, we all need an "old school" phone for when the power goes out and the cordless is not an option.  This super chic twist on the classic is a great option for adding style with a utilitarian object.  

3.  "Red Velvet" Dining Chair 

Pier 1

• It seems lately I've been fixated on dining chairs.  Is it just me or are the choices getting better?  This red velvet option is so cute.  (Did I mention that I love Red Velvet cake too?)  I digress.  Even if you only used two as accents at the ends of the table, what a way to add drama.

4.  Inspirational Art

Kirkland's

• You'd have to have been under a rock not to have seen these "Keep Calm" signs popping up everywhere.  I really like this spin on the original.  Wonder why?  My favorite verse is Philippians 4:6.

5.  Magazine Subscription

• Lastly, I'm a bit of a magazine hoarder, and lately House Beautiful is tops with me.  The photography is spectacular and there's always so much to take in, not to mention they now have a digital version.  House Beautiful subscription = money well spent! 



So, on this day that celebrates LOVE, don't forget to show a little love to your home.  Happy Valentine's Day!
