A huge thank you to Rachel over at The Ponds Farmhouse for organizing this round-up! Get ready for some fabulous DIY projects.

Valentine’s Day Pillows

I love pillows and even have an entire closet dedicated to my pillow collection.

Please tell me I’m not alone!? 🙂

One of my favorite ways to decorate for seasonal holidays is by changing out my pillows. I have 3 darling Valentines’ Day inspired DIY pillows linked below that you can whip up in no time at all!

1.Felted Heart Pillows With Pockets for Love Notes

Ok so these felted heart pillows are actually mini pillows. I made them with my mom awhile back and still love them to this day! A simple sewing, or more like stitching project, that you can do in an afternoon.

And who can resist the precious little pocket on the front for a sweet note?

These are perfect for your sweetie, your kids or even a friend! I even just tossed a few in a bowl and they were instant Valentine’s Day décor!

Yes please. I love ticking stripe and I love this sweet pillow.

Can we all agree that wreaths are one of the best ways to decorate both indoors and outdoors for the holidays? I have never made a Valentine’s Day wreath but now I want to after seeing the two wreaths I am sharing below!

4. How To Make a Grapevine Heart Wreath

Jennifer from Cottage On Bunker Hill used grapevine garland to create a stunning heart shaped wreath. I fell in love with it the minute I saw that she added roses and a peony for a fun accent of color.

Peonies are my favorite!

DIY Valentine’s Day Tablescapes

As we all know Valentine’s Day is all about the love! Well I LOVE setting a pretty table and I especially love setting one for my family and friends. What better way to show them how special they are than setting a table for them. I found 2 lovely tables that I hope you will find inspiration from like I did.

6. Garden Inspired Valentine’s Day Tablescape

Kim from Shiplap and Shells shares the most beautiful garden inspired Valentine’s Day tablescape that I fell heard over heels for. Her cottage style mixed with texture and colorful flowers gives me all the feels. It’s simple and sweet and perfect for gathering with those you love.

7. Romantic Table Setting Pretty In Pink

Ann from the blog Dabbling and Decorating is the queen of thrifting and she had fun setting her romantic table with her newest pink pattern. It’s such a romantic pop to her warm woods and white walls. I really enjoy her collected, vintage style that she shares in both of her homes.

They way she lets the dishes be the focal point of her table has me wanting to run out and find my own red or pink vintage dishes! Love her tablescape!
