The Beatles Were Right

These photos were taken by our friends and favorite photographers, Lee and Cindy Reeves back in December. The Beatles were right, love is all you need. The Beatles Were Right They were meant to be included in our Christmas cards sent to friends and family all over the globe. A few days after this photo session occurred our lives were forever changed. When we looked at the images weeks later it was as if we no longer recognized the people in these pictures. The pain continued to ... View the Post

A Rose By Any Other Name Centerpiece

We currently have a delightful houseguest staying at Décor To Adore manor. I wanted to combine celebrating her birthday and Valentine’s day with one lovely tablescape. An ombre colored rose confection for the centerpiece came to mind. A Rose By Any Other Name Centerpiece. A Rose By Any Other Name Centerpiece I purchased 3 dozen roses at Fresh and Easy. They were marked down to $5 each. (Woo hoo!) I also bought a big slab of florist oasis from Hobby Lobby with a coupon. It must be oasis, ... View the Post

Romeo, Romeo… A Romantic Shadowbox Tutorial

I just finished a literary love story nestled within a shadowbox. A while ago my cousin “T” sent me this cigar box that she had purchased at a Philadelphia estate sale a few years ago and asked me to “Do something with it.” Inside the box was one lone cigar band. It was a really great turn of the century box. I loved this old label. Months went by. The horrid Romeo Y Julieta box taunted me day after day. Finally I decided to create a shadowbox with a very literal theme. Enter the ... View the Post

A Valentine Bon Bon Basket

Isn’t the Target $1 spot wonderful? A few weeks ago I spotted some tiny paper valentine baskets on the bottom shelf. My mind thought that they were cute but could possibly be made cuter. I transformed them into A Valentine Bon Bon Basket. A Valentine Bon Bon Basket I purchased two packages of the baskets, each a different design. I also found some darling paper cupcake liners that I planned on using to line the baskets. Once home I dug through my supplies and found crepe paper, tissue ... View the Post

Romantic Antique Lace Napkin Rings

My name is Laura and I am an antique lace scrap hoarder. Some of my precious bits are so small I wondered what I would ever do with the pieces other than admire them. Inspiration struck when I began planning my Valentine tablescape. I wanted romance and lace and lots of it! So Romantic Antique Lace Napkin Rings were created. Romantic Antique Lace Napkin Rings I began by tearing strips from an old cotton pillowcase and a well worn French linen tea towel. (Yes, it is ok to imagine yourself ... View the Post
