Heart shapes are not just for Valentine's Day. The heart is an very popular form used in many different mediums. Throughout history the heart has been utiilized for a variety of objects.
Door locks are very popular. These beauties just melt my heart. I would love to have one on my front door.
And speaking of front doors look at these! Absolutely gorgeous and not just a heart shape in the door an actual heart shaped window. Love it!
Heart shaped wooden molds are popular. Whether for butter or bisuits they are just so sweet. The top one sold on Ebay for over $300! Wow I will take better care of the couple I have.
Choppers , cutting boards and hanging boxes and shelves are also quite popular. Love those choppers and I think I have found my nexe project making myself that wood box.
Lovely tin locks and even heart shaped nails, I have to find those! Cute little wooden heart shaped boxes probably made by a gentleman for his true love.
The last one and the most unique heart shape thing I have ever seen is this weight scale I saw on PRETTY THINGS BLOG. What a way to cushion the blow every time you hop on the scale.
I will be posting some of my antique heart shaped things this week I did not realize how many I had. I would love to hear about yours too. If you want to send me a picture or a couple with a link I will do a post on everyones HEART SHAPED THINGS. Just send me you stuff by next Thursday and spread the word.
