I'm loving the horizontal lines that are painted on the walls as well as the touches of deep pink!

A Valentine Treat
Today's recipe is so simple you hardly need a recipe! Kids will love this!
Jello hearts! My Mom use to make these for us when we were younger and they were always a hit.
To make these, all you need is some strawberry jello, a heart shaped cookie cutter and a 9"x13" pan. Prepare the jello according to the package then let set in the pan. After it's set, use the cookie cutter to cut the shapes. Carefully remove them with a spatula. Enjoy!
PS: In my browsing tonight I found this fabulous idea for chocolate dipped pretzels at Make & Takes. Go check it out!

Decorating with Red
Since Valentine's Day is only a week and a half away, I thought it would be fitting to feature the color red. Especially, how we can use it in decorating.
Red is actually my favorite color so I'm loving all the photos I found! I'll have to post some of my wedding pictures one day as red was my main color! (Along with ivory and chocolate brown)
My favorite way to use the color red is in accessories around my house. Since having an entire room painted in red can be a bit overwhelming, I appreciate smaller amounts of the color for a bit of drama. The following photos show a few ways to use accessories. In my home, I love to change the accessories for the seasons, a much less expensive alternative to replacing furniture or textiles!
Or create an edible centerpiece using strawberries or red apples.

Or, if you can, how about a red accent chair?
Some other ideas I use are: candles, cloth napkins or dish towels as a table runner, or red flowers.
Here's a really neat child's bedroom. Love the wallpaper!
