I think the pendant lamp in the 4th photo is so sweet. These things always look nice in photos…I’m afraid if I attempted it myself though, it would look more crafty-don’t than crafty chic…. :)

Very cool Valentine’s card. My dad was a librarian and this takes me right back. When I was little I used to draw the “Date Due” grid in all my books.
