As I thought about this post yesterday, this song got stuck in my head. So I have to share. . .
There's just something about a heart shape that I find charming.
Not just on Valentine's Day, either. Although that's when they're most plentiful, certainly.
Sometimes even with your name, stuck in little heart-shaped, pink-cream filled brownies from one of your office mates . . . so endearing!
And even more . . . heartwarming. . . when tied with love. . . from your Valentine!
(Tom crafted this from fish hooks and red mohair . . . just for me!)
There's just something warm and inviting, kind of . . . homey. . . about a heart shape.
Although not as prevelant as my grids, heart shapes appear throughout the year in my home.
On the walls. . .
in the windows. . .
and even in the garden. . .
they inspire.
And make me happy.
Love 'em!
The heart shape is dear to me and I have a few special pieces around the house, too. There's a special place in my heart for Nirvana.

Sweet...I <3 hearts too! :D
I like your note...how old would you be if you didn't know how old you are...age is a state of mind...

I have a friend who is also a library director and photographer and she takes photos of random hearts wherever she sees them. It's pretty cool.

Wonderful post!
Isn't it amazing how many heart shapes you have when you really start looking?

(sorry for the much belated comment - haven't been online much since marc got home last tuesday!) thank you for sharing another wonderful collection... that glass heart hanging in your window is a favorite - when you shared it a few weeks ago with the poem, I had no idea it was yours! and check out this image (http://littlebrownpen.com/uncategorized/only-in-paris/) - cool, huh?
