I’ll be upfront and honest: life is a little too crazy for me to have Valentine’s Day decor this year. Having just launched NewlyWife, work and life demands, and wanting to wait until the after-holiday sales to find some items, decorating with heart doilies and such aren’t even on my to-do list yet. That doesn’t mean I can’t check out what other people are doing and what goodies I could put on my wishlist.

Here are a few inspirations from Houzz, one of my favorite home design inspiration sites:

Both pieces of art are awesome and possible to do variations yourself (although Jennifer Ramos’/Made By Girl’s art is pretty dang affordable). The heart-shaped door lock on the other hand is a little harder to come by. Let me know if you can find something like it, because I sure can’t.

Get the love cookin’ in the kitchen with these:
