Happy Weekend Everyone!!

Looks like we will be getting a little snow tomorrow for this pre-Valentine's Day weekend and since the Tall-One received a cord of wood in his stocking this Christmas, it's the perfect time to snuggle in tight with the one's you love, a cup of cocoa in hand, while lounging in front of a roaring fire.

Speaking of Love...

I will be putting the finishing touches on Spring and Silas's Save the Date, which will hopefully arrive at their guest's doorstep right on Valentine's Day!

Speaking of Valentine's Day...

The Monster and I will be creating at least 30 of them for his friends and teachers at school...

Last year, we came up with these beauties...

This year...well this year I can't tell you yet....

But if you can guess the theme...

I will personally send one to you!

(hint: it's what the Monster likes to do with the Tall One)

Happy Guessing!!!

Stay Safe, Make a Snow Angel and Have a Great Weekend!!

Happy Valentine's Day!!

Happy Weekend everyone!!!

The Monster and I will be busy this weekend making valentines, going to the movies and painting our own hearts in the snow!! 
We can't wait!!!!!

How will you be spending this Valentine's weekend??

Stay safe and warm!!

On a side note.. I just received the sweetest and most wonderful news yesterday. Apparently, Glitter, Glue and Fireflies has been nominated in the design category of the Lovelies Blog Awards. It's exactly like American Idol where viewers get to vote and pick their favorites to win. Honestly, I have to laugh as I am in a room full of Meryl Streeps of the blog world like Mrs. Lilien and Decor 8..I am the true underdog!! However, I am deeply honored just to be nominated and in the same room with some of the most talented and creative bloggers..
PS..If you skip over to the wedding category you will find two lovelies themselves..Sparkle and Hay and Lovely Little Details!

A little Martha love...

Dueling Designers...Part Huit...

The Dueling Designers are back once again and this time, the Lovely Miss Amy Graver of Elements Design, chose Pantone 196c in honor of a Valentines Day Party.

Miss Graver knocked it out of the park this time by creating a board filled with mood and emotion that evokes all that is romantic.

I can't believe that I am going to admit this but I really am not a huge fan of Valentine's Day. Maybe it's the pain of hearkening back to a day when you hoped and wished and prayed for a Valentine. It was like getting picked for kickball all over again..."please god, don't let me get picked last!!" 

I am very lucky now..I have a wonderful husband and three sons to be my permanent valentines...But it wasn't always like that..

In High School, my roommate ALWAYS received dozens upon dozens of roses EVERY Valentine's Day. Coming back to our room after class was like walking into a flower shop. It was unreal...

But one year, there were roses waiting for me...Really?!

Always a mystery, never a name but they always came....Even when I left for college..they followed me..

It took me a while to figure it out..It wasn't Prince Charming but rather an amazing friend..

So..Even though Valentine's Day isn't my favorite Holiday...It does make me think of one of my best friends...who never allowed me to give up hope...

 Happy Valentine's Day Colie!

This board's for you!!
