Part of loving your life is creating a happy home for yourself. I love to use simple ideas that bring the maximum about of joy.
This heart garland is just right for creating a loving and subtle Valentine’s Day feel in your home.
Each heart is filled with the words from one of my recent favorite love letters from The Saturday Love Letter Series.
I chose this love letter because it is such a testament to living a happy life no matter the circumstances.
By being intentional about how I create a home filled with happiness, I am loving my life on purpose. I am using what I have from where I am to love my life as much as possible.
Join me, and let’s let love lead the way.
Dear friend,
Take my hand and let’s dance. Let’s dance through the rainy, windy days that make you feel like you might not be able to hold on. Let’s dance through the fields of flowers that bring so much joy. Let’s dance through the sunshine as it teaches us to shine our own light. No matter what life may look like for you right now, take my hand and let’s dance right on through it with smiles, tears, late night phone calls, a little too much wine, and each other. Each twirl you make you are living and learning the steps of life. With every shift and change this life gives you, it is, and always will be, your choice to dance or to hide. I choose to dance and I hope you take my hand, and join me.
xo,
Nicole Ahr
LOVE LETTER GARLAND HOW-TO:
What you will need: a printer, paper, glue, yarn or string, MT washi tape
Print out as many hearts as you think you will need.
Cut out the hearts.
Lay a row of hearts out with the love letter print facing downward
Lay your string or yarn along the center of the hearts (remember to leave a little extra string at the top to hang them with)
Use the glue to coat more hearts one at a time and place each heart printer side up on top of each heart. You are basically creating a little sandwich with your string. This will keep your hearts adhered to the string.
Hang your hearts from windows, doorways, along banisters, fireplace mantels, and anywhere you think might need a little love.
BONUS: I LOVE to use MT washi tape to hang things like this. This is not regular washi tape. It works so well and doesn’t leave any residue or take the paint off of your walls.
