Saturday Sparks Link Party 102

Welcome to Saturday Sparks 102 and Happy Valentines Day!

Any day that nudges us to appreciate one another and show our loved ones some special attention is a good day in my book.
"If you want a love message to be heard, it has got to be sent out. To keep a lamp burning, we have to keep putting oil in it."  ~ Mother Teresa

Now, onto the Fabulous Features from Saturday Sparks 101.

Shabby Chic Valentine's Arrow at Shabby Chic and I. Tanja shares some lovely Shabby Chic Valentine's Arrows that she made from simple objects.

Simple Valentine's Day Wreath and Decor at Seeking Lavender Lane. Deb shows us her subtle touches of Valentine's throughout her home and shares why it doesn't have to be all 'Reds'.

Vintage Valentine's Mantel at Bohemian Junktion. Shannon shopped her house and created this lovely vintage Valentine's mantel.

Leather Heart Headband at Love Create Celebrate. Lindi shares this sweet Leather Heart Headband that she made for her little girl.

The Giving Generously Project at Little Girl Designs. Jennie was so inspired by the many comments she received on a previous post that she is now offering a free mini ebook containing gift ideas and printables. Her hope is to encourage you to give more creatively and generously.

Valentine's Day Wall Hanging at My Husband Has Too Many Hobbies. Laurie shares a quick and easy project that will get you started with metal embossing.

White Chocolate Mud Cake with Layer of Strawberry Cheesecake at Something Sweet. Winnie baked this delectable cake to celebrate her second year of blogging and shares her recipe in this post.

Candy Cane Chocolate Hearts at Drugstore Divas. Lisa was inspired by another post and created these Candy Cane Chocolate Hearts.

And finally, a recap of my share from the party - 2015 Winter Mantel. A newly found appreciation for our fireplace led me on the path to create a simpler, minimalist Winter mantel.
