Do you have any old Valentines? I have some, I like to display them with my Valentine decor but it's always a little hard to figure out how to display them.

But this year I came up with a few ideas!

I wanted something whimsical and fun to match the cuteness of these old Valentines.

My first way to display vintage Valentines involves this salvaged wood piece. I'm really not sure what it is... or was... I found it at the dump. It kind of resembles a chair back but I don't think that's what it is.

I found this several years ago and have been hanging onto it all this time but it has been sitting outside in the weather... it cleaned up nicely considering how dry the wood was! I used Howard's Feed-N-Wax to condition the wood and then sprayed it with a clear coat to protect my Valentines from any wax residue that might soak into the paper from the wood (the product I used is definitely not greasy or anything, but I just wanted to make extra sure that these vintage Valentines didn't get damaged).

I tied red and white baker's twine across the front several times.

And then I used miniature clothespins to hang the Valentines from the twine.

I used some pink scrapbooking dimensional stickers to spell out "Valentine" on the top. (If you look close enough, you can see that I had to make one of the Es because I only had one!😉)
