Happy Valentines Day!

There used to be a Valentines Day Blog Hop on this day, but hasn't in a while. Still, if you've been following me for a while, you know I like to craft something love-related for Felix every year, and I'll still use this spot to show it!

This year, I had a grande planned, that I only got to implement about 3/4ths. Some years back, my grandma gave me a set of stationary that came in a red leather box that looks a bit like a letter. It was a beautiul packaging but not really practical to keep around longterm, so the stationary now lives in my drawer and the box was to be upcycled this year.

In January, I stitched up the Haunted Hearts Mailbox by Haunted Frames. Isn't it super cute? I then glued that to the box. That was stage 1 of the plan.


 Stage 2 was to write up a bunch of lovey-dovey quotes and saying on little pieces of paper and put them in there, so Felix can take one out and reading whenever he's having a bad day. The original grande plan was to write up enough for every day, but I quickly realized I wasn't going to make 365 writings!

I then wanted to get to a hundred at least, but with work becoming incredibly busy and me being sick this week, I didn't make that too. There are about 40 in there, but it still looks pleasantly full! I might write up some more and sneak them in there when he's running low, we'll see how it goes.
