Tied Up In Knots (Over You)

It's Friday, everybody! And not only that, but it's Valentine weekend! My dad and step-mom have graciously offered to watch the boys for a couple of hours tonight, so my husband are going to revisit the date nights of our youth and do dinner and a movie. I can't even tell you how long it's been since we've done that.

We still haven't decided where to go for dinner (and we'd better do it quick, because we're about to head out!) but I think we've settled on the movie Valentine's Day. It's got tons of stars in it, including Taylor Swift (love her!) and it just seemed appropriate given the title. I'll let you know how it is!

On to today's craft. Something easy for today. Valentine earrings!

The beads are Czech glass, both pink textured stones and ruby red bicones. Don't you just love the way the pink beads seem to glow? Hopefully you can see that in the picture. I've been saving these beads for something like a year and a half. I think I found a sweet combo here.

I separated the beads with a silver beadcap to add a little sophistication, and hung them on these darling little silver twining knot links. The pair took me maybe three minutes to make, once I'd decided on the elements (that part took much longer).

What do you think? Just the right thing to wear out to dinner with my husband to celebrate Valentines Day! I hope you all have a fantastic weekend, filled with love and romance!
