Love Is In The Air with Uncommon...{ free printable }

Welcome to our "Love Is In The Air" Valentine's Series!




Today, Trish and I have a sweet little idea to share with all of you...




In our home, Valentine's Day is about love and family. So I wanted to create something that represented us and one of our family's favorite Bible verses.



I had seen the cutest little peg people display over at eighteen25, you can check it out here, and I knew I wanted to create one of my own, sweet family!

So, I simply purchased the peg people { I got mine at AC Moore and Hobby Lobby } and created my own sweet family! I made a mom, dad, little girl, and little boy. I could not find a mom peg person, so I simply put an extra piece of wood under one of the little girl pegs to make her a little taller { it was a round piece found in the unfinished wood section of HL }.

 I glued my little family to a square base and spray painted everyone "heirloom white" { my favorite }. I added a little red heart to the little boy {my son}! What a sweet reminder of LOVE of family!



Next I added my "family" to my new favorite home decor item...my standing clipboard!! I found a fabulous tutorial over at the Shanty-2-Chic blog {incredible blog, you should visit!}




I love a project with minimal supplies { the green candlestick cup was not originally green, it was a leftover from another project! }.




One change I made was to put wood filler in the candlestick cup. I wanted more surface area for the glue to adhere to!



Once I had it all put together based on Shanty-2-Chic's tutorial, I simply glued a sweet little mini clothespin to the front! p.s. I went back a little later and added one of those  little, red hearts to the clothespin!  Super cute!


I finished off the vignette with a sweet printable and you can have one too ...

  28. ABSOLUTELY adorable! I ran out today, right after reading this, to find the parts. My HL didn't have the little figures...well, they had "boy" only. BUT I'm going to try out Michael's tomorrow. I am already thinking that I'll put a little cross where the little heart is, for Easter! :0)
    THANKS FOR SHARING!
    I love them both and will hopefully be making them soon!
