VALENTINE LOVE ON THE MANTEL


There's a hodge podge of Valentine love on our mantel.


Most of the cards are vintage, but there are a few reproductions in the mix.


Every year, when I pull out the tiny cards, I remember the Valentine boxes we decorated in school.


School Valentine parties were fun, but I had recurring nightmares of opening my box and finding only one card -- and it was from the teacher!



I can imagine the excitement of receiving one of the vintage "moving eyes" cards in the days before high tech.


It's hard to believe any of these "action" cards survived all the moving back-and-forth they must have inspired in their recipients.





I'm having a problem with my camera, and I can't get clear images. Guess I'm going to have to break down and take it in for repairs.



So glad you visited us today.
