Vintage Glam Valentine's Desk Vingette
by

A fun way for me to decorate my desk at work and to highlight some pieces of my favorite collections, old radios and clocks, and (oh yeah,) some Valentine's stuff too!
This all started from a fabric I found at Hobby Lobby. I loved the vintage and glam mixture of it - I knew I'd have to use it throughout the display. It kinda' took on a life of it's own....
I personally love the makeover I did on this Victorian doll - I took the fabric used throughout the vignette and made a new 'skirt' and added some black lace trim. The rose is another favorite - I decoupaged paper to transform it.
The wreath started out as just a red glitter one from Hobby Lobby, but I didn't want quite the standard red and pink route, so out came black lace and wa-la!
This heart came from a post I saw that simply stole mine (pun intended!) from http://kaminskiscreations.blogspot.com/2012/01/valentines-banner.html
My kids got a kick from my cloche, they kept singing "Jar of Hearts" by Christina Perri
This little cherub got a pink makeover (like its little friend over on the tray did) - and the fabric reappears again covering a wood heart that I 'floated' over a framed image of the Eiffel Tower from scrapbook paper.
