Decorating for Valentine's Day on the Farm


It's almost the middle of February, and the farm still stays busy even in the "off season". Cold nights mean we're tossing cracked corn to the chickens to keep them warm, the horses get blanketed for extra warmth, hay needs to be put out and fire wood needs to be brought up to the house daily.

This is also the time of year when we get a head start on the upcoming gardening season. Plans are being made and the seedlings are starting to pop up indoors under the grow lights.

And, we're prepping for Valentine's day! We're putting benches together, baking cakes, and setting up our dining room for our Valentine's dinner at home. 


If you missed the post I did earlier this week with the recipe to my Cinnamon Swirl Pound Cake with Maple Frosting you can read that HERE

This year I decided to snag some new Valentine's decor. I'm really lacking in that department, and with the kids getting older I figured I needed to make this the year I really make it special. 

For the dining room table I used a lot of what I had. I started with a gingham green and white table runner and layered some shimmery placemats that I already had. The table decor was gathered up from my basement stash of random decor. 

Then, I stacked up two different size plates of my wedding China - the Royal Albert Old Country Roses China, and placed a folded white cloth napkin. I do plan on adding to this set. The set of 5 place settings HERE. And, I'm loving this sandwich platter HERE

This light green water goblets, embossed with ferns were the perfect addition to my collection. They have been on my wish list for awhile so I figured I'd snatch up a set! They were packaged great and not a single one got broken during shipping. You can find them HERE

My entryway was in need of sprucing up and I was on the hunt for a new piece to add to our home.  This bench (HERE) fit perfectly against this wall and was the perfect addition to bring in the pop of black I needed in this space to stay cohesive with the rest of my home. 
Valentines decor was needed for in here too so I grabbed the THESE pillow covers, THIS blanket and this adorable wreath HERE

And, yes...in case you're wondering I do actually shop this much from Amazon. My mailman probably hates me. Come join us in our newest Youtube video as I do all of the decorating, and start a few seeds this week!  





And, yes.  Even my sweater is from amazon.  HERE you go.  You're welcome. 

Valentines Day 2021 is almost here. We're spending it here on the farm with our 3 girls. Steaks, salads, baked potatoes and homemade rolls are on our menu! 


So, what's your plans? Heading out or staying at home?

Farmhouse Front Porch Makeover

There's nothing like ending the day wrapped in a blanket, with a glass of wine overlooking the farm. This spot was definitely craving so...
