jar of hearts

My mantle is lined up with jars full of hearts. One of them holds hand cut hearts that we write love notes to each other on, then we will read them all on Valentine's Day.
I was the first one and to love someone more than peanut butter? Now that is true love.

Lisa Leonard Designs, one of my blog sponsors, is offering 15% off your entire order for Valentine's Day! Enter loveyou15 at checkout & order by February 8th.
The 'my treasure' necklace is so darling with the jar full of hearts & the 'my heart is full' is very sweet too. Check out the other designs that make such thoughtful gifts. Including the mens items! I may or may not have picked up a gift for Collin there. Shhhh, don't tell.

I love the mantle and I REALLY love the jar of hearts charm on the necklace. To love someone more than peanut butter? Wow. That is true love right there, cause I really, really love peanut butter.

So cute...the mantle and the necklace! We go through at LEAST 2 jars of PB a week in our house, so that is saying a lot right there! ;-) Happy Saturday!

The jar of hearts idea is so cute! I may have to start that in my home! Loving someone more than peanut butter is a major thing in my family- my husband and toddler would eat peanut butter every day if I let them!!

Oh My God that is so odd.... I was just singing a song by christina perri called jar of hearts and i checked your blog and it said jar of hearts! strange..... you might like the song, it kinda reminds me of lenka, actually. the lady who wrote 'the show' , one of the best songs ever.

I found your post very interesting. In fact after reading, I had to go show it to my friend and he enjoyed it as well!

Have you heard the song by Christina Perri called Jar of hearts? That's what I thought of when I read your title. Love your jar idea so much.

love the jar of hearts idea, Liz! I think it would be tough for me to have jars of candy hanging around. It's so pretty/decorative, but I would eat it up!

It's funny, I tell my husband that I love him more than Peanut Butter all the time! And that is pretty serious love right there.

Loved your idea so much that we did it too. Before tucking the kids into bed we gathered on our bed and read our love notes to each other. There were many smiles and thank-you's - I think this will be a new annual tradition!
