800px LOVE sculpture NY | L{O}VE | 10 |

I love this sculpture in New York City by Robert Indiana.  It was kind of my inspiration in a way for my newest Valentine's Day decoration.

Love+letters | L{O}VE | 11 |
This was so super-duper-simple! 
All you do is take these cardboard letters and paint them.

I used hot glue to secure them together and voila!  Valentine's Day Sculpture Decor!

I participate in the link parties found here.

    One of the things I loved about this project was researching it because the first time I saw it was not in NY. So I wanted to research the origins of the art and found out that the original &quot;LOVE&quot; scupture was done in NY. (I used the NY sculpture image on my blog too since that was the first sculpture.) <br /><br />However, the same sculpture has been replicated MANY times and
