I blogged about them a while back and have since then taken note of the endless creative ideas and variety of uses (even if you’re not getting married!) around blogland. Boy-oh-boy, do I have a list for you, my dears!  From decorating boxes, packaging  and invites — inspiration abounds. Here is 1 of 4 installments.  Enjoy!

I know it’s already past Valentine’s, but I thought I’d share anyways. After all, these darling notecards would be just as sweet any time of the year. So for my sweetie and for yours, enjoy this ♥ freebie goodness ♥ courtesy of  74 Lime Lane.

Ahh, nothing like some lace and doily pretties to lift the spirits on this deep snowy winter day.
