Changing Decorations

Not long after we got married I bought a shelf to hang in our bathroom. It's a fairly big shelf and I thought it would look nice in there and take up quite a bit of room on the wall. And it does look nice. However, I have never found anything to put on it. I've tried different things but nothing seemed to look quite right. I'm pretty sure it drives my husband crazy :)

Last Christmas I did put some of my snowmen on the shelf. They looked cute in there and my husband was so happy that there was something on it. So, I got the idea to decorate the shelf for the different holidays/seasons.

Like with many of my ideas I have not gotten too far. After Christmas I only decorated for Valentine's Day. So, this year I am going to try again and see if I get a little further :)

I put some of my snowmen on the shelf again this Christmas, and I even added a couple of winter pictures of the two of us. I decided to leave them out through January. 

But today I took down the snowmen and unpacked the few valentine things that I had bought last year. 

I have a small, heart-shaped box that I bought at Micheal's.


I bought this at Pier One. To be honest, I don't love it because I am not really a feather person. But I didn't find much last year. I guess I wasn't looking in the right places.


I also bought these two cookie cutters from Micheal's.


I did change the two pictures of us from winter pictures to something that looked more like Valentine's Day. One was taken on our honeymoon.


And the other one is from a friend's wedding. 


So, this is what it looks like all put together.


I think I'll have to look for some more valentine things this year. I also need to start getting decorations for the next holiday :)
