Valentine's Day is once again upon us. I myself do not need a day to show and tell those I love that I love them. But, a token of affection is always appreciated this Valentine's day or better yet, any other day. Nothing says I love you like a ruby red Baccarat heart, but professing it with the written word on Dempsey and Carroll stationary is a good place to start. I do so love a good love letter, much to the chagrin of my husband.
I understand writing love letters and showing signs of affection is good for your heart and overall health. It reminds us of the simple joys in life; being grateful for the love and laughter, companionship and communication that make our lives complete.

Something a little more permanent perhaps, like wallpaper? It's subtle but gets the point across (all your walls)

A Jim Dine lawn sculpture tells the world you are loved in a big way ~

We all know it's the sentiment that counts! I would like to take this opportunity to say how grateful I am to all of you, my readers, friends, and family for the support and encouragement I have received over the years.
More importantly ~
You, yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe, deserve your love and affection.
Buddha
Remember that, if you remember nothing else!
