We hope you celebrate with your Vintage Valentine on February 14.    Here’s our Valentine’s Day card we created for you from one of the photos from the photo album of my grandmother Madge, the namesake of MadgesHatbox.com.  Wouldn’t you love to know the story of why this women wearings pearls and a fancy hat is on a donkey?
