Valentine’s Day Porch Decorations
January 27, 2025 2:47 PM Subscribe
What sweet Valentine’s Day message should I put on my porch? Every year, I hang painted cardboard hearts from my front porch. I also affix letters along my porch railing. For a couple years it’s been ALL YOU NEED IS LOVE, but the letters are wearing out. I can probably squeeze a couple more letters, but 24ish characters is max. The rest of the year, my porch is covered in pretty serious leftist signage, so I’d like February to be a bit lighter in tone.
I'm always a fan of 'love your neighbor' because it's hard to argue with but also includes neighbors who are not feeling a lot of love these days.

I'm very into the quote from teleri025's dad in this AskMe thread today:
"Nobody knows what's in your heart or your head until you act on it."posted by amtho at 4:04 PM on January 27
OK, so a short version: "SHOW LOVE BY ACTION" or "MAKE LOVE VISIBLE" or "WE NEED TO SEE LOVE" or "LOVE IS ACTION".

Is "Love is Love is Love" a la Lin-Manuel Miranda too left-leaning for you?
If you're in a wintery area, there's always, "Cold hands, warm heart."
phunnimee's "droll" response is probably my fave.

Celtic Heart knots You could do different colors to differentiate the four hearts intertwined. Your house is great!

If you want a really deep cut that only maybe 1-2 passerby will get, you could do U + ME = US.
