Heather Irvine is spreading love in Lake Country for Valentine香蕉视频直播檚 Day.

Take a walk down Lodge Road and you香蕉视频直播檒l see the resident香蕉视频直播檚 fence, decorated with pink, white and red hearts for the holiday. Each heart carries a message of love.

A box of blank hearts and markers sits at the end of the driveway so you can leave a Valentine message, too.

Irvine has been decorating her fence for about three years in Lake Country. Every month her fence is themed after a season or holiday.

She got the idea to start decorating it while mowing the lawn one day. The idea just popped into her head.

香蕉视频直播淟odge is very busy with cars and lots of people walk and so I did it, and the response was overwhelming; lots of people like it and I get lots of thank-yous from parents and little kids.香蕉视频直播�

Each month she spends between $60 and $100 at local thrift and dollar stores.

香蕉视频直播淚 don香蕉视频直播檛 like to duplicate but I do like to reuse the materials if I can,香蕉视频直播� she said, as her collection of material continues to grow in her garage.

Irvine said she香蕉视频直播檚 never been the artsy type, but she keeps busy with books and magazines, which she draws inspiration from and enjoys working outside.

Her favourite months to decorate are March because of Easter and October for Halloween because of the variety of decorations available. Irvine does most of the decorations herself but has had help from Peter Greer Elementary students in the past.

The goal is to spread happiness with her fence, for herself and others, and she香蕉视频直播檚 been touched to see others have been affected by it in a positive way. A woman told Irvine she has severe depression and is only able to get out of bed some days because of the fence, she said.

香蕉视频直播淚 would like to think that other people could do things that make other people happy. For me, it香蕉视频直播檚 the fence,香蕉视频直播� she said. 香蕉视频直播淚t香蕉视频直播檚 fun to make people smile and laugh.香蕉视频直播�
