Happy Valentine's Day creative friends! This week, I was a guest blogger for Spellbinders and this is the lil' project that I made.
We are starting a new tradition in the Overby home and I wanted to share with all of you because it's super cute, easy and a lot of fun.
I found this adorable white mail box and thought to myself, how cute would that be covered in white heart doilies?

Maybe because she turned TWELVE today!! I can't believe it!
