Valentine's Day Inspiration and Ideas

What is your favorite way to celebrate the Day of Love? What traditions define the holiday to you? Chocolate indulgences, red velvet cupcakes, a heart shaped wreath of blooms, candy heart topiaries, kids' valentines, paper heart garlands, rustic word art with conversation heart messages? I found lots of inspiration on Pinterest to get me in the mood for Valentine's day. And the great thing for me is that my daughter's birthday is two weeks prior to the holiday so we usually get to incorporate Valentine's ideas into her birthday celebration. Here are some of the best inspirational ideas for the holiday that I found. Check out the links below the pics for more information.
