I was out looking for ideas for a pink graduation inspiration board to go with our graduation girl collection, when I came across this adorable “real party” hosted by Teresa McFayden at My MiNuTia. Love these pink and black monogrammed houndstooth cookies! Don’t you just love the little brothers expression! Read all the details and …
I was thinking this morning about what type of cake I wanted to make this year for Easter. I’d love to make a beautiful white layered cake with maybe a chocolate transfer cross draped in purple for Easter dinner, but I like to make goodies with the boys that are a little more fun and whimsy …
I’m a little giddy to announce that we’ve been featured in Pregnancy magazine’s April 2010 issue. The Shower Diva, Susan Newton, was interviewed and asked to style a baby shower for the article. She chose our peapod bassinet invitation! And not only did they share our invitation, they also shared our peapod carriage thank you note, …
I’m very inspired by yellow right now (I even changed my kitchen accents and curtains!) especially since the first flowers of spring, at least where I come from in Alabama, is the daffodil, more commonly known by us southerners as the jonquil. Here are a few centerpiece ideas featuring this beautiful flower. I’m not sure which I’ll …
The lovely Shannon over at Creative Party Placehas asked that I be a guest hostess this Friday and next Friday. Yippee! So while browsing her blog this afternoon I ran across this indoor campout party submitted by b.a.s.h.ful events. I love the simplicity. A little cocoa, a few s’mores, some “kid-friendly” ghost stories and a …
Wow! It was a really long, but wonderful week. I’ve been part of a fabulous group of ladies, known as the Book Club Bettys for about seven years now (Sandy – I know you’ll tell me if I’m off… I just know it started pre-children. The rest is a little fuzzy!) and I hosted the gathering this month. …
You’ve got to love these treats for a fabulous movie star birthday party! I’m impressed with the idea of the hand-prints in cookie dough. Genius from Family Fun magazine! And the popcorn bag brownies from Bakerella are oh so yummy! I think I might just make them with the boys minus the formal party. {wink}
There is nothing better than sugaring up your friends’ kids at a birthday party and sending them home… right?! {giggle} No really, I just felt inspired by the lollipop recently. It’s colorful and it can be very creative. Here are just a few lollipop inspired ideas from around the web: Lollipop garden cake and cupcake from Martha Stewart Lollipop …
I heard the first tweets of Spring a few days ago and caught a glimpse of a mommy bird building her nest in one of our bird houses… little twigs scattered all over the ground below. (My oldest was concerned that she was killing dad’s tree. I had to assure him it would be fine…) This wonder …
I have a serious case of Spring fever and the only thing I could think of to curb a very strong desire to book a flight to a tropical island was to blog about a beautiful Spring birthday party. I envision a backyard soiree complete with 75 degree weather, cucumber sandwiches, pretty Spring colored dresses and giggling girls. Butterfly …
