Inspiration for Stylish Entertaining
What a fun way to begin the week, with this neighborhood “Welcome Summer” Ice Cream Social sent to me by Melissa of Buckets of Grace. The colors are cheerful and the printables from Dimple Prints certainly help set to scene. Melissa was actually able to combine paper products from several vendors (see list at the end) and make… Read More
I have more summer party inspiration to share with you! This backyard picnic shoot from Tiny Water Photography is loaded with amazing ideas that you can incorporate for 4th of July weekend or all summer long. Vintage suitcases, cute paper details, and a fabulous cookies & cream dessert table make this design special. Some of my favorite ideas… Read More
I have a great classic party theme to share with you today, from Charm Event Design. This baseball themed party was actually a baby shower but of course it would be any little boy’s (or big boy’s) dream birthday as well. I love the vintage feel of the food labels and signage, and the ticket-style invitations… Read More
The ladies of Carter & Cook designed this beautiful modern tablescape for the HITCHED event recently. The centerpiece here is sensational combining gorgeous florals from Arrangements, with tall rustic branches, and topping it all with a whimsical antler ‘mobile’. Other notable details from this table are the tulle rosettes attached to the napkins and drink stirs,… Read More
What a view! Can you imagine having a lovely engagement picnic or anniversary picnic here?

Amy of Living Locurto (and I Heart Faces) blogs designed the printables for this, as well as the pinwheel craft and tabletop styling. I wanted to share it with you now because I think it has some beautiful ideas for decor and… Read More
There is a lot to see here today, as I styled and photographed this Queen of Hearts Valentine’s Day shoot to help showcase the printable party collection by Paula of Frog Prince Paperie. Paula created this very cool and modern set that would also work well for a bachelorette party, bridal shower, lingerie shower, or even engagement party – the LOVE… Read More
You may remember in December I designed this “glam” table for The Party Dress’ Holiday Table Challenge. Well, in the end Kelly showcased her own design as well and it was this amazing “Mad for Plaid” dessert table below. She also created a coordinating dining table (above) using the same colors and the red reindeer silhouettes… Read More
This gorgeous party was sent in by Rene of Rene Takes the Cake, and is a fine example of a holiday party that doesn’t “scream” Christmas. It is wonderfully appropriate for any social gathering all throughout the Winter months with it’s Berries & Branches motif! This soiree was a wine & cheese theme and served up… Read More
