Dreamy White & Rouge Inspiration Board

As everyone is gearing up to celebrate love this Valentine's Day. It only seems fitting to create another Valentine inspired board. I love this one.  The dazzling whites of this look are gleaming against the vibrant reds and blushes that are sprinkled in delicately. There is also the slightest hint of natural wood and linen that seem to add just the right amount of warmth and texture to this otherwise intense look.

 Here are some of the elements that were used in planning this board, use them to make this look your own:

Colors: White, Red, Blush, and Pale Pink

Elements: Lace, Organza Ribbon, Natural Linen, and Pale Natural Wood

 Flowers: Poppies, Tulips, Garden Roses, Peonies, Ranunculus, White Allium, Astrantia

 Fabric: Lace, Chiffon, Polyester

Favor Ideas: sugar cookie ingredients packaged in glass jar with heart shaped cookie cutter

Captivating Valentine Inspiration Board

When I was in elementary school my parents started a tradition that followed through to high school, they had flowers delivered to me every Valentine's Day. I remember waiting in anticipation, as I went to my classes, to hear that a delivery was waiting for me in the school office. The hope of what was to come was great: what kind of flower would it be, what color, would there be a balloon (or many balloons), and what would the card say. That tradition built a fond love of Valentine's Day which, of course, was later transferred to my husband.

 Valentine's Day is a day for dreamers, for the romantic, and for those who love to love.

Take that love of Valentines Day: the balloons, the flowers, the decorated boxes with little love notes slipped inside and turn it into something captivating. That was the inspiration, for me, behind this board. The idea is the same, but the elements are a little more sophisticated.
