what's not to love about glitter, candy, cards and flowers... valentine's day might have been invented just for me.
i have vivid memories of making valentine's day "mail boxes" all through elementary school. i wanted to make one this year (just for fun), but didn't have time. all along, stephen was making one for me, and it's absolutely amazing. here are the facts: made of oak, music box plays "love me tender", mail slot on top and trap door on the bottom to retrieve valentines. i'm a lucky girl! (if you want to see it in action... click here).
other highlights of our valentine's day include (but are not limited to): new shoes for shauna and a giant bouquet of balloons for stephen (delivered to work and hugely embarrassing). also for stephen, handmade neck ties and a mug from fieldguided.
something else we love is this project by laureen and yulia of paperwhite...
click here to fill in the blank and let them know what you use as your "measuring stick" for love. they collected over 6,000 responses so far - but there's room for yours too. our favorite part is this tote bag, that we purchased in their shop.
stephen: the heart in the top right corner is from me to you! (think eames)

Wonderful V-day gifts all. But that box? Divine! (Sigh).
(P.S. Your hand-lettered shoproll in the right frame of the blog is also quite wonderful.....)

So cute! I love the balloon bouquet idea too.
By the way, on the RSS feed, the title of your blog is "Something's Hiding in Here by ShUAna & Stephen" -- Shauna is misspelled. Don't know if anyone else has ever told you that or if you care, but there you go. :)
