All the items by themselves aren't particularly interesting (except the gold flatware, that's fancy all by itself!), but piled up together are really cute. The felt placemats, napkins, glass plates and doilies are all Dollar Store. The polka dot 'tablecloth' is a scrap of fabric from my stash.

The flatware is arranged as a nod to 'XO.' Are X's hugs or kisses? (Update: Heather just told us Xs are kisses...for when lips touch...and Os are hugs...arms wrapping around each other! Thanks girlie!!)
For fun table confetti, I punched hearts from paint swatches and scrapbook paper.
My tiered-platter is placed in the middle for height, and decorated with cupcakes (toothpicks from Dollar Store), and the Burlap Treat Bags. The pink glasses are World Market, and the red stripey straws leftover from this party.

My precious Valentine is happy! My other little Valentine forbid me to post his picture, since he hadn't yet fixed his hair.
