Vintage Style Valentine’s Day Decor with Old Playing Cards

Here’s a little vintage style Valentine’s Day decor that I pulled together for our guest room from stuff I had stashed away in my craft room.   “Love makes the world go round” was my theme.  What do you think?

Supplies for Vintage Playing Card Valentine’s Day Decor

• small chalkboard with wood frame
• Minwax Wood Finishing Cloths
• vintage Probe playing cards
• Canvas Corp Brands clothes pins
• Canvas Corp Brands burlap fringe, light pink

I really liked this project because it wasn’t permanent.  I reused all of the pieces in other projects once Valentine’s Day was over.

I actually stained this frame way back when I went to the Snap Conference in Salt Lake City.  Minwax had a make-and-take booth and were sharing their new (at the time) product, Wood Finishing Cloths.  Convenient, but I still like my good ole’ tube of Minwax stain.

I used to find old Probe games at thrift stores and garage sales all the time.  I think now resellers are buying them up and listing them on Etsy!   Even there, they’re not very expensive.  

I also used these cards for the card box banner at Jordann’s wedding and a LUCKY card garland for St. Patrick’s Day.  I punched holes in both of those but they could still be reused.

So, I wonder how many other craft projects I could come up with without going to the store?
