Conversation Hearts
More than chocolate or roses or winged cherubs practicing archery, a box of pastel colored candy hearts is a symbol of Valentine’s Day! I find it impossible to put them in my mouth without reading them, and I love that the messages have been updated in recent years. You’d never have found “text me” on the conversation hearts of my childhood!
Whether or not you celebrate Valentine’s Day, the sweet and cheerful colors of this simple, slouchy hat will bring a smile to your face.
