For my cafe shelves this Valentine's Day, I was going for classic romance. Sparkling crystal, gilded accents, and a just a hint of English aristocracy. And when it was all done, I realized what I had wanted was Downton Abbey.
Tea and cookies, anyone?
And I realize this might be very American of me, but I also have some free Valentine printables for you, if you are so inclined.
Download the small ones here.
And download the large heart here.
Use these to make little buntings...
Or for adding a sweet message to your Valentine treats...
Lady Violet is my favorite. Who's yours?
Linking with a few of these fine sites.

What an awesome blog post - inspiring pictures, free printable, and ending with Lady Violet and one of her marvelous sayings! Every detail is perfect! I think this makes me want more of Downton Abbey as well!

I just can't get enough of that show. We just started watching reruns a few weeks ago and now we are watching Season 3. I'm in awe!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing the printables. Love all your pretty vignettes!
ReplyDeleteI love Lady Violet too. My favorite line of hers was after saying something mean to Isobel Crawley, Isobel says that she will take it as a complement and Lady Violet looks at her and says, "Oh, I must have said it wrong."
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE your cafe shelves!!
