Finding love on Etsy

Valentine's Day is right around the corner!! :)  I'm trying to start planning ahead this year, because I was so behind with all holiday stuff last year. {I may even still post pictures of our house decorated for Christmas-who knows?!? And maybe I'll do it in April. That's my style.} Anyway, I've been obsessively checking out etsy lately, and they have so many creative gift ideas for Valentine's Day!!

maybe cheesy- but I say romantic :)

This would also be such a cute wedding gift for friends! With the city they met in or if they're moving to a different city as newlyweds.

This one I saw and couldn't help but think of my sweet friend, Anna. She's in the middle of planning her wedding, and this line is from her favorite poem (which I also love and I'm so glad she reminded me about!), and she's using it in different ways in her wedding. The poem is by e.e. cummings and is so beautiful.

I'm obsessed with all the cute things in this girl's shop!!!!  I especially like (and need) one of her address file boxes- but it didn't really go with the "love" theme :) This is such a cool alternative to a traditional guestbook!

What a perfect gift for a bff- it says "You are loved"

Don't forget about our furry loved ones! Especially if they have as much of a passion for food as Copper does :)

This specific item is already sold, but it was saved in my favorites for a long time- so I had to share it :)  I'm sure they could make another one like it if anyone is interested though. I just LOVE this.

This one is definitely my favorite of all though!  I love this phrase. Everyone else may read it differently, but to me,  it's a great reminder that we make the choice each day to love our spouse, family, friends, enemies. I love that it's such a definite statement- not based on feelings that may be strong one day and weak the next. It's a decision and a commitment. What a beautiful thought :) I love knowing that even on my very worst days, Nick makes the choice to love me- very cool. Hope you all have a wonderful, love-filled day!!
