XOXO {oh, and a linky too!}

No, this isn't a post about Gossip Girl.  Although, I will admit that I do love the show despite how much it is targeted it at teenagers.  I guess I'm still a 15 year old at heart...just ask my iPod.  I'm getting off track though.
I've {slowly} started decorating for Valentine's day.  My first craft: XOXO.
I picked up a ceramic XOXO at Michaels during a recent sale.  I also grabbed a few different types of pink paint inlcuding pearl and glitter.
I painted the entire thing in the satin paint.  Then, I put the glitter and pearl paints on the hearts.
Pin It

A quick and easy project to start getting ready for Valentine's Day!

Have you started getting ready?  Done any cute decorating? I'd love to see them so link them up below!
