MY CURRENT MOOD IS... VALENTINE'S DAY

Am I the only one wondering how fast time is flying, or is today Valentine's Day? Before I realized that time had flown by, I did not get to do an interior photo shoot for my Valentine's Day project. I always do something special for Sweethearts Day. However, I am currently working on several client design projects and had to reschedule my project. I always look forward to it, but unfortunately, things happen. Moreover, I am posting last year's greenery.

I get excited by Valentine's Day each year because it reminds me so much of my favorite color, red. That said, I always decide on the color palette for my Valentine's Day project during the middle of January. Of course, my favorite color, red, was the primary color, with pink as the accent or contrasting color. It is incredible how my styled greenery has become a part of the space. Again, this is my Valentine's Day tree from 2024, and I still love how it turned out.

Psst, red is my baby boy Ace's favorite color, too!

I went all out regarding roses because the more, the better. Red takes center stage, while pink is on each end, creating a subtle contrast. Of course, the stylish sweater and scarf complete the outfit. I smiled every time I walked past this room or looked over the balcony because I love red. Again, as my favorite color, it always gives me butterflies.

The best part is that there might be two trees instead of one next year because I must post the one from this year that I did not get to do an interior shoot and then 2026. So, yes, I will have a stylish surprise next year that will make up for this year's Valentine's Day project. Until then, Happy Sweethearts Day!
