Some new pieces for Valentine's Day decorating

With Valentine's Day coming up (and my usual week of giveaways beforehand), I've been gathering goodies for my Valentine's table and found a few delightful pieces that I thought you might be interested in as well. I plan to have some friends over for tea to celebrate, and I'm also working on a Valentine's cookbook for 2027, so this platter and plates from Aldi are just perfect! Since many of us stayed home all weekend because of the winter storm hitting the country, I started pulling out my Valentine's décor and thinking of how I want to decorate this year.

The platter and set of four dessert plates were $9.99 each, and they're also available in a cream color.

Then at T. J. Maxx, I found similar plates in melamine, and they come with a matching heart-shaped basket ($19.99 for the set).

Finally, I found these vintage-looking paper napkins ($3.99) at T. J. as well. It's odd to me that they're from Shabby Chic, as this isn't Rachel Ashwell's soft pastel color palette at all, but they remind me of vintage Valentine cards, so they'll be fun to use as well. Happy heart hunting!
