25 DIY Valentine Banner Ideas

Happy Tuesday beautiful ladies! I hope your Monday went by without a hitch. Today I was looking through some of my saved things on Facebook and while looking for a specific recipe, I actually came across these adorable DIY Valentine Banners and thought I would share with all of you since we are in the month of LOVE. :) The original post that I saved it from can be found here on How Does She's blog. I left her post just as she had it to make it easier for you. I forgot I actually had these ideas saved and hope I remember so I can make some of them next year.  Of course, you can convert these into any banner that you want it to be, it doesn't have to be just for Valentine's Day.

Another Weekend Project Off My List:

Happy Monday my friends! Hope you had an awesome weekend!  Ours was great but very busy.  I was able to tackle another project and mark it off my on-going list.  My kids and husband were all gone to work among other things, so in between running the kids here and there, I decided to get the ugly sliding mirror doors out of my living room once and for all. 

                                    Here they are before in all of their glory:

  

 Taping off the doors for safety purposes before taking them down:

 After taking the doors off (already 100% better)

 Spackling:

During the painting:

                                                        And afterwards:

 And refilled with our coats, games, ski stuff and extra blankets:

So what do you think?  Better?  I think it's 100% better!  And so nice to finally get it done.  But now the hard part is trying to decide what to put up there in place of the doors.  I want something that is going to blend in and look very nice with our living room.  Any suggestions?  My husband wants to hang some sort of nice curtain and curtain rod up there - but I'm not sure how that would look.  I would like to have some nice doors to hang back up but not sure what, if anything, would look good there. 

Well... I'm running extremely late this morning, so I've got to run.  Thanks for stopping by to say hello and please let me know you were here.  I'd love to hear your thoughts and opinions on the closet if you get a chance.

Lots of love and hugs,
