Willow Tree Home Valentine’s Day Display

We have a telephone table near our front door and I like to decorate it for holidays.

Each holiday I move around my decorations and try to create something new and unique.

I find this rule of not doing the same thing challenging, and fun, and it sparks creativity.

Usually, I reuse or repurpose items that I have on hand so it doesn’t cost me much money either.

This year for Valentine’s Day I decided to use our Willow Tree figurines that my husband has bought for me over the years to represent our family in a display.

How to assemble this Willow Tree Home Valentine’s Day Display

I placed a wooden “Home” sign that I used on this Valentine’s Day Love at Home Mantel last year on the telephone table.

I put a vase in the background with dried roses to add height.

Then I placed each member of our family/Willow Tree figurines around the home sign in a way that I thought was cute.

You may wonder why the figurine of my daughter is holding up a balloon with the word, “NO” in it. When my husband gifted this Willow Tree figurine, our daughter, Amelia, was going through the toddler, “No Stage”. I call it this when toddlers like saying, “NO” so much they say it for everything.

I love to have fun at this stage. I ask my kids, “Do you want to play outside?”, they answer with a resounding “No”; I ask them, “Do you want candy?”, again they say “No!”; “Do you want presents?”, “No”, etc. I get such a kick out of this stage that I’m usually laughing most of the day… until it ends. My kids only lived in the ‘NO stage’ for about a week or two. However, they are some of my favorite most memorable weeks ever!

So, Shane, knowing this (no pun intended), used wire to put the word, “NO” in Amelia’s balloon.

Anyway, this Willow Tree Home Valentine’s Day Display only took a few minutes to set up and since I had everything on hand, it was free to design as well.
