amore

Homemade gifts are the best. Homemade gifts you receive are even better! My heart swelled this weekend when I received a few tokens of l-o-v-e from some lovely people in my life.

Mom made this print and framed it for my apartment. As you can see, it's "love" in various languages across the globe. It pops perfectly on my blue dining room wall and means that much more because she made it.
Jake's nieces, Ava and Kate, made these heart magnets for everyone in their family, and I was honored to get one of my very own!
Although not homemade, Jake picked a beautiful vintage Renoir bracelet from a little antique shop in his hometown. I adore it!
Note the DIVA candy hearts from my boss on my desk.
Presents or not, I feel loved and blessed. Life is good!
