L-O-V-E

I went a little crazy this weekend buying lots of things to decorate with for Valentine's Day (you can see the craziness here). One of the things I bought were these L-O-V-E letters. I think they will look nice on our big window sill in the living room.

I am planning on decorating them with navy and white paint, maybe dots or stripes...I haven't decided yet! But so far, they just have their base coat of "sailing sky" - don't you just love that name?!


Well, that's all that is going on here! Stop on by Julia's check out even more desks from around the world :)

    Lovely colour but I can't help but envision swirls stamped or painted in white over that lovely blue - but hey, I am a swirly girlie :)

    Look forward to seeing them done. Happy WOYWW!

    'Sailing sky' makes me think of lying in long grass in the summer watching the swallows swooping over head!!

    I like the idea of non traditional Valentines decorating that you can keep out all year. Lovely goodies you scored at Michaels, I've been staying away from the craft stores as I got lots of new goodies for Christmas and birthday!

    Terrific letters and it would be spots for me ... love polka dots :) It's a lovely idea for a Valentine too. Sailing blue is a fab name for a colour - almost as good as the air-blue I read about in a poem. Hope your week is a good one. Elizabeth x #96

    I'm still trying to catch up on last week's visits, so I've popped by to say Hi to you first....

    Those are lovely letters - the ones we get over here are dull, and more three-dimensional, and never an interesting font. I've taken to making my own!

    I like the LOVE...please be sure to show them finished and in situ!

    Hi Katie
    Love your Love Letters and yes, the paint name is lovely. (That's a whole lot of 'love')
    Funny how bowling lets you see so many famous people - you'll have to keep a list going.
    Thanks for sharing and for commenting on my blog - Hugs, Neet xx

    Hi, it's me again. Thanks for dropping in on my blog, I, and Sorrel, appreciate it so much. Agree about the groomers, ours puts blue ribbons on the boys, a step too far I think.

    When you see paints with lovely names you just have to buy them don't you. This is a gorgeous blue. Your letters will look fantastic I'm sure. Don't forget to show us the finished result.
