I have a nice collection of vintage valentines and I've been busily scanning them to use in some of my craft projects. I think I'll make some tags and try and sell a few on my other Etsy site, Etsyshop2, "Just a Little Something". I remember in grade school how excited we were to get valentines from our friends. The teachers always decorated the classrooms so nicely and we had a large box covered in hearts that we would put all our valentines in until it was time to pass them out. Just like going to the post office : )
I don't know if they do anything like that now, but I suspect some teachers make a special celebration of it. We need all the positives in our lives that we can get nowadays.
Here's a couple of the vintage valentines I'll be using. Have a good weekend and upcoming week. Look out for all the snow coming on Wed. if you live in New England.

Snow Is Falling
The snow is finally falling in New Hampshire. Now my grandkids can ski locally (where they don't have snowmaking equipment). They enjoyed some skiing at Ragged Mt. in Danbury last weekend but it will be nice to be able to go closer to home. I don't ski anymore but I do go and watch them and of course take pictures! My adult son will be especially happy it's snowing. He doesn't ski but he does love to snowmobile and every year he can't wait for enough snow to get out there.
I had a lot of birds at the feeder today and enjoyed taking lots of photos. Some I will certainly put into note cards to sell on my Artfire and Etsy shops.
Stay warm and Drive Carefully if you have had this storm!
