Later this week it's Saint Dwynwen's Day here in #Wales and I wrote a little piece for #ArtUK (a wonderful organisation, by the way - their catalogue is just chef's kiss!) about #Dwynwen and seeing affection in everyday objects.

Can you find a little #love around you this week? What items hold unexpected affection in your daily life?

Dydd Santes Dwynwen Hapus - Welsh patron saint of love

Princess Dwynwen was the beautiful daughter of the king of south #Wales. When she was forbidden to marry the man she loved, she ran away and became a nun. She devoted the rest of her life to helping other lovers find happiness. Dwynwen became the Welsh patron saint of love.

She’s celebrated each year on #StDwynwensDay, 25 Jan
