So, I guess we can say it is Valentine's Week here on the blog since every post has been about Valentine's.  But it's such a fun day isn't it? Some sweet and pretty treats for your besties, mammas and loved ones. Here are the details-

Beautiful linens make me weak in the knees.  I love having them and using them when company comes over.  I enjoy building special memories around them and imagining how my daughter will use them when she is older.  I already own beautiful placemats and tablecloths that my mom has passed down to me. I also have jaw-dropping bed linens from my grandmother and even my mother-in-law has started to give me some of her special things.  I can say one thing- my daughter better like to entertain when she is older!  I am amassing quite a collection. 

I was so happy when I came to know about Hibiscus Linens and their beautiful hand-made work.  And I was especially tickled by this mixed Valentine's set. These are traditional, modern and sweet - all in one! What a perfect Valentine's Day gift for your loved ones!

Valentine's Day is so much fun.  My favorite part (aside from all the chocolate) is looking through all the cute cards and choosing the perfect ones for my loved ones.  We don't really exchange gifts on this date but there are so many cute things out there that I thought I would make a pretty little board for you.  Here it is-

I don't really like going out on Valentine's Day because all the restaurants are crowded and the food is never really great.  I actually love cooking a special meal at home this day, but in case you are looking for some outfit inspiration I could not get over this pink dress....so SPECTACULAR.  The structure is just amazing and these sweet heels are so feminine and romantic. I really adore them.  Too bad I have fat ankles (I do! ) but they would look amazing on all of you, I just know it!

I love it when school is in session- everyone is just happier abiding by a routine.  Like they say 'man is a creature of habit'.  So, I have some colorful things for you today starting off with that beautiful corner in Todd Alexander Romano's kitchen.  I love the dramatic but elegant color combination of the blue and yellow.  Also, I just love the way he so naturally mixes the Saarinen table with Regency chairs. There is an art to mixing periods for sure.

I know Valentine's is still far-off......but I just had to tell you about these Anya Hindmach bespoke gifts for Valentine's Day since to ensure delivery they have to be ordered by January 18th.  They are too perfect, too cute, and too special - I just had to tell you about them asap.  So, basically you can send them a little doodle, or note and they will emboss it in the item you like best.  They can even work with an old photo of you and your lovebird.

It's official! Valentine's day is less than two weeks away! Have you put in some requests to your loved ones? or do you prefer being surprised? Those beautiful roses in the yummy yellow vase are from our garden from last fall (the light pink peony is not, I wish!). Don't you love photography, immortalizing such a special moments.
