What is a Wall o' Loooove?! Well, it's a wall...dedicated to love. Because, you see, like my sister LoW, I LOVE love. I love romance. Or...woahmance, as I like to call it. ("Woah, this is romantic." Thus becoming "woahmantic".)
Those that know me know there was a time that I hated love. Mostly because I thought all guys were big fat jerks and that I'd never find it. But I did find love, and I did find woahmance and it's the best thing ever!
So you see, I had to devote a wall to love. Because love is great, and it deserves a wall.
The Wall o' Looooove
What's that? Oh, yes...there is an empty frame. (thus the DONE!...(ish) title)Because I still have one more quote I'm putting in the frame, but haven't been able to do it yet, but I was determined, DETERMINED I tell you, to get this up!
So, as you see, I got my wreath that I made, the framed quote that I made, my button hearts that I made, and the tree of love that I made.
Everything else? Antique stores, because that's how I roll!
I got these postcards a couple years ago antiquing with my sisters in my home town. Oh, how I love them. I love that they are now over 100 years old. And I still wish I knew what happened to the couples that sent them!
I thought this framed silhouette was so sweet. When I bought it, the woman asked if I collected silhouettes, and I said "No, romantic stuff." She may have looked at me like I was off my rocker.
This has got to be one of my most favorites EVER. Sleeping Cupid and Awake Cupid. So, so sweet!
And, I don't know about you, but Norman Rockwell rocks my world. I love this picture and when I saw it knew that I had to get it for the wall.
And this cute wittle cross stitched piece? How could I resist it for 50 cents?
I'm so excited that it's done. And as it usually happens, I got it all hung up, then looked at it and felt like it's "off". Like I didn't position things right, that there is "empty spaces", etc. But that just means I get to keep hunting for perfect things to add to it, which of course is a bonus.

I must say, I am a bit jealous of some of that love.
I LOVE it! Such cute things...so much thought...stuff you labored with "love" to make...PERFECT! I wish I had a wall of love...but then I'd be copying)
(And I was antiquing with you too! I got 100+ year old postcards from Holland...written in Dutch. I wish I knew what they said! One is written in a spiral. VERY cool!)
So sweet! great collection! Thank you for sharing at Uncommon! bonnie :)
