Red, Rustic & Reclaimed -Valentine’s Day Edition!

December 29, 2023 by Kimberly Snyder 10 Comments

Spread the love

Looking for inspiration on how to transition your Christmas Decor into Valentine’s Day? It can be as easy as tweaking just a few elements!

Remember This ?

A few weeks before Christmas, I came up with the display pictured above.  It was a fun activity!  If you are interested in reading more about it, the details are here: Red, Rustic & Reclaimed Holiday Centerpiece

Now that the Christmas holidays are over, it is thyme to start thinking about decorating for Valentine’s Day! Let me show you how quickly and easily I transform this centerpiece!

Honestly, I tried to talk myself into leaving it just like is for Valentine’s Day since it has so much red in it.  I even tried to convince myself that the jingle bells could be passed off as “love chimes” or something!  But I finally came to my senses and decided to do a quick refresh or “tweak”.

How to Transition Displays from Christmas to Valentine’s Day

The Steps

Spindle Trio

The first step was to remove the Christmas berry rings, jingle bells and the snowman pick from the three spindles.

Red Rustic & Reclaimed supplies

The second step was to find some Valentine’s Day ribbon, a heart accent and some red wire.  The ribbon came from the Dollar Tree.  Each spool has 9 ft of ribbon.  I was able to make three small bows and have enough left over to make a small banner from one spool of ribbon.  I used the red wire to tie the heart accent in the center of the bow.  The red wire is an Oasis Floral product called bullion wire.  It is easy to work with and can be used in a number of ways to add interest to your creations.

Red Rustic & Reclaimed Valentine's Day spindles

Next, I tied the ribbons onto the spindles.  A very quick, inexpensive way to turn them into a Valentine’s Day decoration!

How to make the Banner

Velcro on ribbon

The ribbon from the Dollar Tree was the same width as the middle part of the red ribbon.  I used Velcro to stick the two ribbons together to make the small banner.  The banner looked good as part of the spindle display or tucked into the corner of the electric candle display.

Quick Seasonal Change for the Electric Candle

I simply changed the candle ring, replaced the jingle bells with a few small red flowers and added the rustic Love sign.  The banner is tucked into the side of the bowl.

Valentine’s Day Display in the Cabinet

The display works in the cabinet as well as on top of the wicker coffee table.  Since the cabinet area is longer, I can add a few more Valentine’s Day touches such as the vintage Valentine man on wheels.

Red Rustic Reclaimed Spindles

I showed how I decorated this area for Christmas in this post.

The instructions on how to wax the barnwood are also in the post mentioned above.  The barnwood came from a crib that used to stand on my family’s farm.  I have several posts about the farm but one of my favorites is this one.
