Since Valentine’s Day is fast approaching, I thought I’d share some lovely vintage Valentine DIY ideas! On these web sites and blogs, you can download free printable graphics to design and construct your own Valentine greetings. Several of these sites have a treasure trove of beautiful vintage images scanned from old books, cards and postcards.
