I have been wanting to make a valentine garland to hang on my mantle. Here are a couple that I found so far.

This one is from All Things Heart and Home...

This one is from Scraps-in-progress...

This one is from Jodified.

And another one from Bella Dia...
And something simple like these could be used on a garland or to decorate. Found them on WhipUp.Net.Or a little more detailed like these off of Linen and Roses
And one last one from Better Homes and Gardens...

And just for fun - If you haven't seen the Bakerella site yet then you need to go visit it. So much fun!
