Mini fabric hearts

John and I celebrate our anniversary on February 7th each year. Since Valentine's Day is on the 14th, I decided a few years back to celebrate  A Week In Love  with my husband. It's been a fun tradition of ours now - we do a little something special each day for one another. Nothing big or fancy, but it's nice having little daily reminders of how much we love each other. :)

With the advent of Pinterest this year, I've had a slew of new ideas, lol! (if you care to follow me on Pinterest, you can find me right here.) This was one that I found awhile ago:


I fell in love with those little fabric hearts, so I dug through my fabric scraps and pulled out some red and white pieces and made a whole bunch.


For now they reside in a couple glass vases on our bookshelf, but I plan to pin little messages to some of them and leave them scattered around for my husband to find one day during the week. :)

This year we'll be including the kids in our celebration, and it's been fun thinking up cute little things for them. I have some tutorials and printables in the works that I'll be sharing in the coming weeks, so stay tuned!
