Hope your Valentine's is Special

The red knitted heart is my latest mini-project. I beaded it as well and gave it to my friend Jennifer of Textile Fetish .

Valentine's is pretty special around here because (hold on to your laughter at this cliche') my husband proposed to me on Valentine's Day 17 years ago.....in our car.....in the garage. All of it, so predictable. But really he is a pretty good guy. My plans for tonight's dinner include cornish hens and I don't know what else. For dessert though, I've been meaning to make this particular chocolate cake for many years. I hate chocolate cake. I hate chocolate ice cream. I only like chocolate in the pure form of candy, however, this chocolate cake is like none other. I'll explain why in the next blog post. Stay tuned. And Happy Valentine's Day.

Unchain your Heart

I've finally folded and made some earrings with hearts. But they are a little bit more edgy and a whole lot more sexy. Now since I only make things that I myself would wear and until now wouldn't picture myself wearing hearts, I wanted to come up with something that would work for my taste. Check out the Chain of Hearts Earrings. Perfect for your Valentine, or yourself any time.
