At LSU, one of the older buildings was labeled "MVSIC," with the "U" in the "V" shape, in an attempt to appear lofty and ancient, I suppose. The Latin alphabet lacks the modern letter "U." But we laughingly referred to it as "Mivsic," so the attempt to elevate our sophomoric minds failed.
Here we have a set of tags featuring yellowing sheet music. I received a similar tag on a gift, once. The floral accent had been glittered. I still have the tag and have it hanging on a birdcage. It's one of my favorite "vignettes" in the house, which is relatively bare.
For beautiful, large hearts made from real sheet music, check out the handiwork on this blog post from Goodnightgram.
Her hearts are gorgeous, and big enough to pair with a ribbon and tie onto a chair back. I'm on the prowl for old music now, so I can make some, too!
Thank you for stopping by.

Thankyou for these beautiful tags..
I studied music growing up and through college. I had also studied “the dead language” in high school. Latin proved to be very important understanding medical/pharmaceutical terminology and understanding. Yay LSV!!!
