Hello sweet friends. This last day of January is so cold. We are in the midst of a major ice storm this week and I am happy to not venture out. I’ve been puttering around the house creating some pretty vignettes. Today I am sharing a Romantic Antique Valentine Tiered Tray.
I LOVE tiered trays! They are such a fun opportunity to showcase collections or seasonal decor.
I made my own tiered tray from two metal baskets a few years ago.
This collection of spring décor was fun to create too.
Romantic Antique Valentine Tiered Tray
For Valentine’s Day I wanted something very romantic in feel. With a way to incorporate my own collection of a few Victorian Valentines. For inspiration I perused Pinterest and tried a few key words in the search bar but everything was very MODERN in feel. Cute, but modern.
So, I just started collecting small things from around the house that I felt would go together.
I had found the book and dashing figurine awhile back at an estate sale. I paid $5 for both.
The tiny frame, potted plant, and small red roses all came from Michaels.

You can find the tutorial for the Pearl Hearts here.
I wound a bit of lace onto old wooden spools.
Grandma Mary’s pearls were also layered in.
The pink china lady lifts up to hold trinkets and secrets.
I hope you enjoyed my idea of the perfect Valentine tiered tray.
I’ll be back on Friday.

What a beautiful way to collect a whole bunch of stuff in one spot and pull it together so it’s not just everywhere! Lovely, Laura. I really do appreciate all the sweet touches and, of course, the pretty pearls!
I love it! It is so, so sweet!
Laura, I smiled when I saw the man was on one tier and the woman on the other. I thought that was a charming touch because it leaves the story open to the viewer to determine. Are they going in opposite directions or are they looking for each other?
Laura, I pretty much wasted my day. I wish I had pulled out my valentine things and been creative. That will be my goal for tomorrow. Just trying to stay warm, not getting out. Stay safe and Happy February.
so beautiful Laura, I love all the wonderful small romantic items. I’m sharing this post at All About Home this evening. Thanks so much for always coming by to share your wonderful inspiration!
