Feathers, Hearts



Many thanks to each of you for your kind birfday comments this week. It ended up being a lovely one, all told. One full of very large marshmallows and a snowstorm and a narwhal and an accordion and red balloons for days.

Swap valentines are winging their way across the world. I can hear them fluttering, like heart-eyed nowls. I'm already hearing reports of some received and torn into and delighted in. This is good news. For those of you who participated, many thanks for doing so. I'll post a swappy round-up next week.

Finally. I cut out a lot of felt hearts around Valentine's Day. It's just something I do. Here are some for you, dear reader. Pretend they're in a little envelope slid beneath your door. xo

i'm still smiling about the ones that peeped out of my mailbox. you're a fine valentine, A.

I'm thinking I will go all old school and print these hearts out on actual paper and hang them up on an actual wall. Smooches, bunny.

Amanda said...

I LOVE my felt hearts!! I'm actually taking them to a Valentine's dinner party Sunday evening for us all to wear a la Julia Child! xo

Hello.

I have just found your blog. I think I may have fallen a teensy bit in love with it. And seeing as it's Valentines, I thought I'd tell you.

eep. i am very noivous that a special little dented, rained-on box has not yet made its winged migration from the western desert to the eastern shore.

can you confirm or deny?

the lady at going postal promised it'd be in your paws TODAY. but then again, the store IS called "going postal," which does not inspire yours truly with great CONFIDENCE.

i wish i was a teeny bird or mouse so i could curl up in all those cozy hearts.

agirl said...

Happy belated birfday Amanda. And many many many hearts from me to you.

I love to have found my way here today. I think I've been here before...? During some fleeting moment, much like these moments in blogland can be... All that to say, I am glad to have found my way back, for it's a beautiful place.

What a cute idea. Next year I am doing this and send them to all my friends in the mail.

Thank you again, Amanda, for sending me some hearts. They've been on my dresser and I was having a terrible morning until the husband picked one up and said, "Take heart. It will get better". I laughed. Then I took it and stuffed it in my pocket.
