Valentine Tree

Valentine’s Day is a month from today!
Valentine’s Day is one of our favorite holidays
because it’s my son’s birthday ❤️
We always go out of our way to make sure his birthday is special
I like to make themed trees for special occasions
Today I’m going to share my Valentine Tree
I used a silver tabletop tree
I began the decorating process with ribbon
and a heart and cupid garland that I had in my decorations stash
I set the tree in a white wooden crate
and tucked heart tissue in to cover the tree base
Next, I added the shiny heart ornaments
and a ruffled light pink ribbon
This cupid ornament came out to perch near the top
I made paper ornaments and conversation hearts using PicMonkey
The XOXOs are my favorite
For spending $0, I think it turned out pretty great!

Oh Jenna! What a sweet Valentine’s tree! I enjoyed all your printed ornaments. Thank you for your creativity and inspiration!

Thank you so much ❤️
Wow, what a nice idea!
Thank you!
Your Valentine tree is absolutely fabulous Jenna! And what a perfect day for your son to celebrate a birthday; what could be more fitting?
Thank you!
Jenna, my mom has a tree sitting out by her apartment door I decorate for her each season and holiday. You gave me the perfect idea to decorate it for Valentine’s day. Thank you my friend! I love how your tree turned out. Terrie – Decorate with Tip and More
Thanks Terrie, how sweet of you to decorate your mom’s tree!
Oh I do love how your sweet tree turned out. How creative and cost efficient. Happy early birthday to your son. My FIL will be 90 on 2/14. Now I am wanting to do a v-day tree. I used to decorate a small tree for every occasion. Hugs and blessings, Cindy
Thanks Cindy! Have fun with your tree!
Okay…. now you make me want to get my tree out of the attic to decorate! I love this. So cute.
Thanks Tammy!
Jenna, you know they say great minds think alike–I’ll be sharing my valentine tinsel tree next week, lol! Yours is so cute and celebratory in honor of your son’s birthday–I really love the cute colorful ornaments you crafted! Blessings, Cecilia @ My Thrift Store Addiction

Thank you Kim! I love you make themed trees 🙂
Outstanding and I bet you had fun creating it!
Thank you Linda!
Adorable tree and sending early birthday wishes to your son!
Thanks Patti ❤️
What a sweet Valentine’s Day tree! I’m also partial to the XOXO ornaments.
Thanks so much Allyson!
Valentine’s Day–Hooray! My favorite because of the hearts that punctuate the various bulletin boards, blogs and displays that I see as February approaches. I know where this love (of all holidays actually) came from–Bing Crosby and Fred Astaire as they played in the movie HOLIDAY INN long ago. Probably to the dismay of my mother I saw this and was SO impressed I became obsessed with decorating, even minimally, for ALL holidays. I must have driven her to distraction as we had to buy and create a salute to every holiday all year long. Thanks, Jenna, for this happy tree, that reminds me just how much I love to festoon the house with holiday touches and how my wonderful mother tolerated my wheedling for more and more decorations.
Such a precious and sweet looking little tree Jenna. I know you will enjoy this for weeks. Thanks for always sharing on the craft hop.
Thank you Donna!
I love a seasonal tree decorated beyond Christmas Jenna and have admired your Valentine’s Day-themed tree! The paper ornaments are such a festive and economical way to decorate it too! ♥
Thank you Mary ❤️
I love the idea of a Valentine’s tree. Wonderful for decor or a Galentine’s party. Such cute decorations.
Thank you 💕
Now that is one beautiful love tree filled with sweetness!
Thanks Mary 💕
Another cute idea, Jenna. I put away Christmas, brought out the snowmen, and now slowing adding a few valentine things. Thanks for the inspiration.
Thanks so much Sarah! I didn’t get out my snowmen this year, and we got real snow last week… I want January to be over!
So sweet! 💗 You are so creative Jenna!
Thanks Jill 💕
I have a little pink tree, about three feet tall, that I didn’t get out for Christmas this year. I see its re-emergence in my immediate future! Thanks for the reminder of a seasonal tree!
Have fun with your tree Jeanie!
Such a FUN Valentine Tree, Jenna! Thanks for sharing! Creatively, Beth
