Goodwill needs to calm down. Seriously!! They are pricing DONATED products barely under "new" prices. All of the ones within miles of me (with the exception of 1, right now, near me) have priced me out of their stores. BUT...I have discovered multiple thrift stores I never knew about, and some that are new to our area. Their prices are still in a good range AND I would rather support the small "mom & pop" shops any day!! Goodwill is getting really, really greedy. Sad.

When I kids were small I always had a Valentine Tea Party. We had it at night, I put candles on the table, bought cute heart shaped plates, napkins. I used regular cups & saucers and made cute finger foods, heart shaped cookies/cupcakes. I had 2 boys and a girl. The boys acted liked they hated it, slurped their tea loudly. But I know they enjoyed it and it gave them special memories You should try it w/your family, a special time. I mean my kids were sm. about 3&4. They are never too young and I kept it up. No one does a tea party. I do it now w/my Bible study ladies and my granddaughters. You will never be sorry if you do one. My husband even enjoyed it. A special time to show how much you love them!

I agree! We had 2 boys and 2 girls in that order. Every Valentines Day I did the same making a heart shaped cake with pink frosting, boxed candy for each, cards, lots of decorations and we had a party first when my husband got home and then it became when they got home from school. Then a baby sitter would come and my husband would take me on a Date. Our first Valentine's Date I was 15 1/2 and he was 17 and we went to our church banquet. Valentines Date 2024 was our 55th consecutive! We praise the Lord for His faithfulness to us and the romance He continues to bless us with! We continued with Valentine's and St Patrick's Day Parties for our Grandsons with a sleep over too until they were in their early teens, (but never on the Actual Valentine's Day, because we have a scheduled Date!!!)

After that we also did one for Mother's Day and they all abided by my mandates. LOL!

You have a good eye for finding things that I would pass on, but you definitely seem to have a way of making them look so much more desirable! I Love your idea of using the little gold finish flat baskets as ornaments.😮 I love using things in non-traditional ways. The red/white table runner would have been pretty for valentines and Fourth of July decor. It wouldn’t go with placemats you got though for valentines, but maybe in another area.
