I don't do a lot of "Valentines" decor at my house...but this playful little vignette sort of fell into place the other day.
I bought this little True Value truck on a little getaway over Christmas break...do you love it? I do :)
The "John 3:16" sign was(yet again) made by my talented friend and booth buddy Joan...
Stacked books, pop bottles and bowling pins for "trees".
I can't wait to use this truck for napkins when it's done here...
A closer look.
Am I too old to play with toys??
Did you see the one on my WINTER MANTEL?
Hope everyone is having a great week!!
I need to stop "playing" around and start getting ready for JMS Trunk Show on Feb. 1st!!
Interested? More details here...
My name isn't on the list because I joined in at the last minute...which is why I have so MUCH to do!!
I'll check in here and there to show you what I'm up to :)

I love it when things just fall into place! Trucks are so much fun to "play with" around the house and in vignettes!
ReplyDeleteMaybe I'll get to the show on the 1st!
Keep warm!

I always love your vignettes but this one with the bowling pins and the springs around the bottles, not to mention the toy truck, is awesome! I think I need a little toy truck now, too! :)

ReplyDeleteThe toy trucks can get a little addictive! Good luck at the show. Once again, I wish I lived closer. It seems like all the cool shows are in Minnesota or Wisconsin!
