Valentine Tags

Here are some of the Valentine Tags I have been working, I have a gal who asked me to create some vintage Valentine Tags....She owns her own bakery and she will be attaching these to her customers purchases,She places all her customers purchases in pink boxes then takes tissue paper of each holiday and then wraps the box usually adds a tag with her name business name phone number ..She and her staff wear Victorian aprons, her shop is (I would say )Shabby, Victorian, Vintage..In the bakery she has tables with linens and silverware where you can sit and be served. At Christmas my daughter and I were out taking Christmas presents to some of our favorite local business, Like our favorite... hair dresser, favorite mom and pop restaurant..We decided since it was the holidays we would stop in at the Bakery and treat our selves to some Christmas goodies.We carried in our last couple Christmas presents with us, And the owner of the bakery came over to our table and just flipped in joy over the tags on the presents.She said this is exactly what she has been looking for!!.She asked where we had bought them, I said they are all hand made, not bought .she asked who made these that she just loved them and wanted to buy some, Valerie my daughter popped up before I could answer, and said My Mom made these..I know my face turn blood red..But isn't it nice when you hear your own child who is all grown up, and adult herself says some thing about their Mom with such pride....well the rest is history..Now she has a on going order with me for each holiday!!!
These are just a few of Valentine ones for this year.
