Hello...I'm Ann. I'm a wife, mother, devoted daughter and I've been a DIY girl all my life. I believe that good design is collecting things you love and making them work for you. Mixing styles is not only interesting, it's fun.
I learned to sew at an early age and
opened my Etsy shop, Sutton Place Designs, in August of 2011. I offer handmade textile
furnishings for your home from mostly vintage fabrics.
This blog features my mix-it-up take on decorating, gardening, tried-and-true recipes and new collections in my Etsy shop. I'm honored
to share my ideas and inspirations with people like me.
I hope you find something you like...and I hope after your first visit you come back.
Welcome to my home...On Sutton Place.

These ideas are wonderful! I already bought some cute things for that special day....Since I live near Bluffton (SC) I visited a cute gift shop and found some vintage spoons monogrammed with cute sayings: "I love you a latte!" They were adorable!
Thanks for sharing!
As a tradition, I usually make rolled out cookies and use my heart cookie cutter and sprinkle with pink and red sugar.
Great inspiration! I especially like the red Pottery Barn bowls. I may have to check those out. Thanks for sharing.
All of these things are so precious...lots of ideas here! We used to celebrate Valentines Day a bit more when the kids were younger, now it is just cards and chocolates, although I will bake some sugar cookies!

Ann that muffin tin is so cute and I love those earrings too.
what great finds. i love them all. can't wait for <3 day to get here. (:
Those are some great items.
Not sure what I liked best, but the man in pink stood out.
Loved every single one of those... well, the pink polo... just okay. LOVE the rest! Thank you for the early inspiration! blessings ~ Tanna
Ann - What gorgeous images. I LOVE the wreath and the cookies and little pie tarts. So many cute ideas here- xo Diana
Great ideas. Thanks for sharing them while I still have time to get them! I always seem to be scrambling at the last minute. You're a life saver.

Hi Ann! What a great post to get us in the Valentine mood. I think I'll start adding some Valentine touches to my decor. It's only a month away! Have a great week. Pamela
They are all great gift ideas, including the man in the pink shirt! lol
I'm surprised to see the Kitchen Aid mixer with a glass bowl. I love it. I need to see if I can j buy just the glass bowl for my mixer. I also love that bracelet from the Vintage Pearl.
Thanks, Ann, for the ideas!
I would like the heart shaped cake tins and the jewelry with the childrens names. I have an Emily and an Elijah!
I don't think my DH would go for the pink shirt though!
I absolutely love Valentines day!! Thank you for sharing all of these wonderful ideas!!!
Have a pretty day!

Literally, my favourite holiday :-). That hat would be amazing for small one.
They're all pretty, except the handsome guy, but even his pink shirt is pretty. I love the heart shaped wreath.----------Shannon
I love this post, Ann. I am actually looking for some heart-shaped plates right now! I saw the cute little heart-shaped pies on the Williams-Sonoma website yesterday, and I would love to make them! They are too, too cute.
Lots of inspiration here!!!

Makes me think of the heart shape pans my MIL gave me that she always made my husbands bday cake in Feb 13. Now i make brownies in it for him..his favorite.
I love the pies on a stick. I have to try them. I think seeing all these makes me want to have a Valentine. Will you be mine? Richard from My Old Historic House.
