Hearts & Flowers

Our February meeting got everyone "in the Mood!" (ha) with Martha Jo's presentation on Hearts & Flowers.

She put together a beautiful table display of all things hearts & flowers and gave wonderful tips on bringing that Valentine's Day spirit into your home using simple things you probably already have.


A round mirror (bottom right) with roses glued to the bottom with a red-ribbon for a hanger is a simple idea and she demonstrated using lipstick to write a special message to your valentine!   Ooo-laaa-laaa!

 

Or check out the white paper doilies glued to form a holder for red flowers (bottom left).   Super-cute to hang on a door knob or cabinet.


 This simple flower was made using cupcake liners and some foam-board; so cute!
 
 

Martha also recommended a wonderful "Cheer Basket" to carry in your car for impromptu get-togethers with friends.   Include in the basket teacups, teabags, a candle, napkins, tablecloth and maybe a devotional book to share with a friend who might be in need of some warm fellowship.
 
Even the refreshments provided by Pat and Vickie  were all geared with "lovin" on the mind!  

Delicious mini cherry cheesecakes! 
 
We will be starting seeds at our next meeting in March; won't you join us??
