And let's break it down....
1. Pistol Annies, Hell on Heels. You can go buy it here. Or anywhere else, I'm not the boss of you. I just love to buy things online and have them magically appear at my door. I love Miranda Lambert, I love the Pistol Annies. I'm not sure why I don't own this CD already. I'm hoping my husband remembers I desperately want it.
2-4. Pandora charms. I would love a couple more to add to my bracelet. And it's not quite the traditional Valentines jewelry present. A gold heart, a silver heart, and a football. Something sweet and something fun. But none of the creepy stories like the commercial with the Red Hot Love bead. Ug. Not cool guys. My Pandora bracelet is from Jared. And I can always say "He went to Jared"
5. Okay, this is more of a date night thing. My husband always buys me a book for Christmas. And he always does amazingly well. This year he bought me Safe Haven by Nicholas Sparks. He said he regretted buying it because it's getting ready to come out as a movie too and he knew I would make him go see it. I told him no it was okay. But now I totally want to go see it. So, if you or your sweetie likes chick flicks, go see Safe Haven for Valentines.
6-7. Apparently I really need a leopard print scarf. Animal print is my new(ish) addiction. I pinned both a black and a brown leopard print scarf in a matter of weeks. And scarves are always great in the winter. Good for keeping you warm and great for making shirts with a low neckline a little more work appropriate.
8. A manicure. I looooove getting my nails done. But I'm super cheap and am rarely willing to pay someone to actually do my nails for me. So I would love a gift certificate to a nail salon for a little pampering.
Here's the thing though guys, we don't do Valentines gifts at our house. I'm not really that into it. We will go to dinner and maybe a movie. But not on Valentines. Probably some time over the weekend because we both have a three-day weekend right after Valentines. So, what do you and your honey do for Valentines? Do you buy gifts? Does he bring you chocolates and flowers? Or do you do the non-traditional route like us and do a date day some other time?
I love it! I swear we're twins! A manicure sounds so nice but I never spend the money on it either.
ReplyDeleteRight!? It just seems like such a frivolous use of money when I could spend that money buying DIY supplies.
DeleteHi Mary! Found your blog from Crystal @ Rue House...I totally love your ♥-day list! Love the Pistol Annies. Need a mani and gotta go see Safe Haven! The book was great! And girl...I am so with you on that RED HOT LOVE BEAD!!! GROSS! ☺
ReplyDeleteAw, yay! Thanks! I know, that Pandora commercial totally freaks me out.
DeleteMary your V-day board looks fabulous! How did you put it together? It looks so well-designed. What program did you use?
ReplyDeleteCheers,
Gillian
Thanks Gillian! That is so sweet! I actually just did it in Microsoft Publisher. I'm not very fancy. It was pretty much just copying and pasting :)
DeleteI've never even tried that, but now I'll have to give it a try! Thanks for the tip (once again!).
ReplyDeleteNo problem! I like to do things the simplest way possible. And I'm not super tech savvy so I just work with what I've got. I used to do everything in Word so I feel like I've upgraded a little anyway. To upload it to the blog, I just save it as a jpeg.
DeleteGlad I could help :)
