The Husband and I each shared our picks for Valentine’s Day last year for both him and for her. We really liked searching through Etsy to find fun and unique gift ideas, so we decided to do it again this year! Here are my picks for Valentine’s Day gift ideas for her, and next week Husband will share picks for him.

Happy Tuesday, readers! Today we will continue the Valentine’s theme with a fabulous tutorial by Lia from Me and Mama Creations! She made this super adorable Valentine’s Day rosette ring and was gracious enough to share her craft with us. After you learn how to make this ring, you can grab a coupon to her Etsy shop!

Valentine’s Day is in less than a month! That means I have a few more Manicure Mondays to figure out how I want to wear my nails on February 14th. My first design is a mega simple one, that requires no skill and just a few coats of polish. Try my quick & easy Valentine’s Day nails if you’re in a rush or looking for something effortless!

Yesterday I shared a photo from my trip to Longwood Gardens last week. Husband and I took the day off to make the trip and check out the Christmas light displays before they were gone. Plus, I try to do something special every year on what would be Mom’s birthday, so this was the perfect thing!

I went on a trip to Longwood Gardens last week to check out the Christmas displays before they were over. I’ll share a recap tomorrow with lots of photos from my trip (it was so pretty!) but I’m sharing my fave pic today! I took this one in the Conservatory right after some of the plants were sprayed with water.

It’s finally starting to feel like Winter here- it was warm for so long that our pot of begonias only JUST kicked the bucket last week! As soon as the thermostat hit 35, Husband and I were yearning for comfort food. We decided a good recipe to make would be slow cooker chicken and dumplings! It came out great!
