<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">The most wonderful time of year is upon us, the Holiday season! </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">It's a magical time of year to gather and make special memories with family and friends! But as many of us know, the hustle and bustle of the holidays can sometimes be a bit overwhelming as well. This year I had the pleasure of partnering with <a href="https://www.poshpartysupplies.com/" target="_blank">Posh Party Supplies</a> to show you just how easy and stress free, not to mention budget friendly it can be to create a gorgeous tablescape with disposable tableware! Yes, I repeat, disposable tableware. </span></span><br />

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">If you are looking for something disposable that's just as fabulous as your real china, then Posh Party Supplies has exactly what you need. They have tons of beautiful collections to choose from and all of them can be mixed and matched to create a gorgeous custom look that your guests will go gaga over. </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">They have everything from plates, chargers, cups, flatware, napkins.... the list goes on. Their prices are super budget friendly and if you're worried about the environment, many items are even recyclable. Now, for the best part.....your clean up time will be a snap which leaves more time for visiting and spending time with family and friends!</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">The Holiday tablescape I created was inspired by all the rich beautiful jewel tones of the season. The basic palette consisted of red, green, navy and plum with accents of rose gold and pops of rhinestone sparkle. </span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">To create this look, I decided to set a low table and add gorgeous throw pillows for seating to not only give it a more cozy vibe but it allowed me to bring in lots of extra color and texture to the overall look. </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-z9NhhGrEYcI/XcBGE84SxJI/AAAAAAAAEF0/QVshEV_91aErucrCx9BPGzGjq5uK_O9MACEwYBhgL/s1600/Photo%2BOct%2B11%252C%2B6%2B19%2B48%2BPM.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1200" height="640" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-z9NhhGrEYcI/XcBGE84SxJI/AAAAAAAAEF0/QVshEV_91aErucrCx9BPGzGjq5uK_O9MACEwYBhgL/s640/Photo%2BOct%2B11%252C%2B6%2B19%2B48%2BPM.jpg" width="480" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">For the actual table, I first started with a beautiful red table runner, added some fresh greenery atop and sprinkled festive ornaments throughout the greenery. I placed a gorgeous floral arrangement in the center and flanked it with simple white candlesticks.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">To create this look is a lot simpler than you think. The table runner is a piece of fabric from your local fabric store, allowing you to customize and match any theme. The greenery can be cut from what you can find in your yard or nearby park. and finally, most local grocery stores have a lovely selection of florals to create an arrangement to match your event perfectly!</span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">For the place settings, I first started with stunning copper cutout placemats, topped them with a rose gold trimmed dinner plate, followed by a royal blue trimmed appetizer plate, placed a plum napkin wrapped with an elegant rhinestone napkin ring atop and finished the look with a simple leaf embellished with each guest's name. Glamorous rose gold flatware flanked the place setting and a Manhattan green napkin with beautiful gold detail sat to the left.</span></span></div>

Oh My!" The cake was set on a DIY weathered stone cake plate perfect for any Halloween gathering. The cake was flanked by two concrete vases filled with pastel and black roses and hydrangeas as well as some spooky black twigs.</span></span></span><br />

<span style="color: #666666;"></span></div>
<span style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">My Sweet Bella Rose was turning sixteen years old!</span></span><br />
<span style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I knew her party needed to be bright and colorful just like she was! She loved cactus and was a huge fan of taco bars... so I thought, what could be more fun than celebrating her special day <span style="color: #f1c232;">FIESTA</span> style!</span></span><br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<span style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The cactus along with some of Bella's Favorite colors became the inspiration for the color palette and overall party design. We chose bright pinks, oranges and yellows with pops of green and turquoise. Gorgeous watercolor cactus designs adorned the invitation and other printables. Personal touches always make the party a bit more special!</span></span><br />

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="color: #666666;">We decided on a fun casual vibe so I set the table low and added a selection of cozy white pillows for seating. For the table runner, I found a bright playful striped pattern at my local fabric store. A simple piece of fabric can create such a stunning focal piece. The cake adorned with multi colored scroll designs and a fabulous hot pink topper became the centerpiece of the table, flanked by two lovely floral arrangements and the most adorable little ceramic cacti sprinkled throughout.</span></span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="color: #666666;"> Each place setting started with an elegant white paper doily place mat, topped by a hot pink plate and then a smaller coral plate with a darling gold scalloped edge. I then placed the sweetest little favor box filled with yummy tropical gummy bears atop patiently waiting to be discovered by the guests. </span></span><br />

<br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="color: #666666;">To the left sat a larger favor box with the cutest little cactus candle nestled in a cloud of fuchsia crinkle and neatly tied together with a simple coral ribbon. (Sometimes, I tend to go a little overboard with the favors!) </span></span><br />

<br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="color: #666666;">Sitting to the right was a pretty blue glass adorned with the cutest swizzle stick place holder in a poppin bright yellow. Finally, as if there weren't enough adorable elements, a precious cactus napkin sat to the left to complete the sweet sixteen Fiesta!</span></span><br />

</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="color: #666666;">I kept the dessert table fairly simple. Beautifully designed sugar cookies, gorgeous cupcakes and brightly wrapped chocolate covered Oreos adorned the table. The guests couldn't wait to dive into these delicious sweet treats but not before indulging on a fabulous Taco Bar fit for a king!</span></span><br />

A few strategically placed coral and clear confetti balloons added dimension and pops of color. Some greenery was tucked throughout as well as a few large palm leaves, black and coral triangles and of course tropical neon for the win!</span></span></span></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><span style="font-size: large;">Let's have a <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">GNO</span> party, just because! You don't need a holiday for a reason to get together with your favorite gal pals. Throw an impromptu Girls Night Out Party just because!</span></span><br />
<a name='more'></a></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><span style="font-size: large;">Now I tend to go a bit overboard when it comes to designing a party but you can keep your design as simple or as over the top as you like!</span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><span style="font-size: large;">I decided on an eclectic modern theme with gold geometric shapes and pops of bright colors throughout.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><span style="font-size: large;">I wanted to keep this party lovely but at the same time have a casual, laid back kinda vibe, so I kept the table low to the ground and used fun throw pillows for seating.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><span style="font-size: large;">For the tablescape, I started with a pretty white on white quilted table runner and placed a collection of geometric terrarium vases filled with the most gorgeous</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><span style="font-size: large;">blooms down the center. I'm a sucker for pretty flowers!</span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><span style="font-size: large;">For the place settings, I layered a gold charger, a lovely white plate detailed with a geometric pattern around the rim, a scalloped Chinoiserie patterned dessert plate, a fuchsia napkin tied in a simple knot and finally, a neatly placed leaf bearing each guests name in gold sat next to the napkin. The leaf place card is such a simple detail that adds such elegance to any tablescape.</span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><span style="font-size: large;">The "Bouquet Bar" is an interactive alternative to a typical party favor. Simply set up a station with 4-6 different types of flower bouquets in various vases. As your guests are getting ready to leave, let them create their own customized bouquet of flowers! Neatly wrap it up in some pretty wrapping paper, tie a piece of twine or ribbon around it and wah-lah....a customized flower bouquet favor!</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><span style="font-size: large;"> I LOVE a great wreath backdrop! I chose a heart shape of course for Valentine's Day but it could also work beautifully for a bridal shower or even a birthday celebration or you could simply make it round to suit really any occasion. A little greenery with a couple colorful tissue flowers definitely makes a bold yet elegant statement.</span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><span style="font-size: large;"> The dessert table was simple yet achieved a boldly elegant feel from the popping red cakes plates adorned with elegant crystal details.

<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><span style="font-size: large;">Each place setting started with darling pink heart shaped melamine plates topped off with mini heart wreaths adorned with each guests name.

<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><span style="font-size: large;">Now, I don't know about you, but I LOVE charcuterie platters. I am all about variety and grazing. I am also a huge fan of sweets. So I thought, why not make a "Sweet & Savory" Charcuterie plate. That's exactly what I did! I placed one at each end of the table so everyone could reach and I filled them with savory meats and cheeses, crackers, nuts, chocolate covered strawberries and pretzels, macrons and lots more decadent yummies! It's definitely the way to go.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><span style="font-size: large;">I LOVE having a craft or activity of some sort at all my gatherings. It's not only fun, but it's a great way to keep everyone entertained and engaged. </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><span style="font-size: large;">Number or letter cookies/cakes are all the rage these days. I thought, what a fun activity this would be, just miniaturized of course! I chose a heart shaped sugar cookie filled with buttercream and topped with sprinkles and confections! Each guest would get a beautiful red pastry box to put their creation in, wrap it up with a lovely ribbon and darling tag and give it to their favorite Valentine! HOW SWEET!</span></span><br />

The inspiration for this celebration came from these lovely balloons. There were so many gorgeous colors to choose from, but I ultimately decided on a palette of deep plum, rose gold, chrome gold, blushy magenta and white. If you really want to make your balloon displays POP!... try mixing in different finishes, various sizes of balloons and add in a few confetti filled balloons for a splash of fun!</span></span></span></div>

A blush pink glass sat to the right and a glittery favor box filled with yummy chocolates completed the look!</span></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><span style="font-size: small;"> The napkin design can be easily achieved by simply stitching a decorative piece of ribbon to the edge of any fabric napkin. The color combinations are endless. The smallest details can add the biggest impact to your party design!</span></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><span style="font-size: small;">Some of my favorite desserts are decorated sugar cookies, chocolate covered strawberries and scrumptious macaroons. I like to display my desserts at varying heights as well as use various sized cake plates including little mini ones! These are great for displaying an individual cupcake or one or two cookies.</span></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"> Most kiddos can't hang to the wee hours of midnight to ring in the new year so why not have a NOON Year's Eve Party for the littles instead! Include all the fun of a New Year's Eve party like noise makers, festive party hats, yummy kid approved food and drinks as well of lots of fun games and activities. Instead of ending the party with a count down, kick off the party with a super fun countdown at NOON!</span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"> Nothing says festive and fun like a fabulous balloon backdrop!</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;">To create this look, I first hung a fun ruffled backdrop behind my table.(It's actually a shower curtain.) I then created my balloon arch using black and white balloons. I also tucked in some white tissue flowers for added texture. Stick pins, twine and a low temp glue gun are your tools for this display.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;">Finally, I hung the sweetest "Let's Party" banner across the center.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"> The desserts were a festive collection of chocolate covered Oreos, chocolate cupcakes, marshmallow pops and a yummy powdered doughnut tower. The centerpiece of the table is the multi colored number candles for the perfect countdown! Just before the clock strikes noon, light the candles and have the kiddos blow them out one by one! They will love it!</span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"> The tabletop was whimsical and fun, starting with a white tablecloth topped with a wide black and white striped runner and finally a thinner gold sequined runner down the center of that. Using the adorable party hats down the center made for a super fun yet super simple display! Each place setting was made up of a gold plate topped with a whimsical color wheel plate, topped by a cute clock dessert plate and finished with a darling little "Ring Pop" favor box. The milk glasses had festively sugared rims and black and white striped straws! And finally, no NOON Year's Eve Party would be complete without a party horn!</span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"> Holiday parties are definitely one of my favorites. In the past, I have stuck with the more traditional gingerbread house or cookie decorating parties. This year, I decided to change it up a bit and do something a little different. What little one doesn't look forward to writing a letter to Santa letting him know how ... good?... they've been? HA! So I thought, a "Dear Santa" Party would be a perfect theme! I couldn't wait to see all those adorable letters! </span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"> My inspiration for the party decor came from a darling MeriMeri plate I came across. I loved how they incorporated a fresh pop of blue to the classic Christmas colors. and for a little extra pizzazz, I thought it would be fun to add a black and white Buffalo plaid pattern as well.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"> After establishing the color palette, I designed the most adorable printables including a sweet invitation suite, a letter to Santa (of course) and a festive Merry Christmas BINGO game!</span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"> The backdrop was fun and easy to create. I simply wrapped a plain canvas with a fluffy piece of batting and added the cutest "Naughty Or Nice" banner along with some lovely felt holly and berries. I surrounded the sign with a cluster of balloons and festive fans.</span></span></div>

There are many things to consider. When I asked my daughter Bella what she wanted to do for her 15th, she replied, " I want a sunset beach party!" I of course was thrilled! I have been wanting to plan a beach party for sometime and this was the perfect opportunity to do it. I just had to cross my fingers that the weather would cooperate! </span></span></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: small;">A destination celebration can be a little bit challenging, so a simple organized execution is the key! </span></span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: small;"> For the table, I used a long white table top set atop a couple off-white storage containers and placed woven teal throws on either side with a collection of gorgeous pillows for guests to cozy up to. I came across a beautiful water colored scarf which I used to drape across the top. For the centerpiece I used multi leveled cake stands adored with gold ribbon and dip dyed tassels to display my gorgeous florals on. Cake plates aren't just for displaying cakes on anymore! I love coming up with new and unusual ways of using them.</span></span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: small;"> The place setting started with a gold polka dot charger, layered with a melamine plate detailed around the edge with a lovely blue and yellow pattern and a pink and white patterned napkin and gold silverware was neatly wrapped and placed to the right. For the place holder, I used the most darling little <a href="https://amalfidecor.com/collections/cupcake-holders/products/10-piece-mini-3-5-cupcake-holder-set-white" target="_blank">cupcake stands</a> adorned them with a tie dyed gimp and placed a floral cupcake detailed with each guests name written in gold upon a delicate leaf.

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">"Let's ROCK!" is what my son said when I asked him what kind of birthday he wanted for his 11th!</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">I LOVED it! And since his instrument of choice is the drums, I decided to keep that the focus and design everything around that.</span></span><br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">I started like always and designed the invitation as well as all the fun printables to match. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">The party would be modern and fresh with a base of black and white and pops of blue, orange and green throughout.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">I loved how the invitation turned out and so did Max!</span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">The set up was fairly simple but at the same time had a definite pop! The white brick wall at the School of Rock studio served as the perfect backdrop. I added a large graphic sign and hung a black and white balloon cluster around it.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">I kept the dessert table / food table fairly simple as well. It boasted awesome sugar cookies, yummy chocolate cupcakes, "Rock Pop" aka...popcorn, delicious croissant sandwiches and a scrumptious chocolate ganache drip cake decorated with colorful macarons!</span></span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> School of Rock was such a great venue to have the party at. The kids all got to try out different instruments, finally settling on one that suited them best. They then, impressively enough learned an entire rock song, "Gimme Some Lovin", jammed it out for a while until they felt ready to perform it for all the parents. It sounded amazing! </span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">After the super fun jam session, all the guests enjoyed some lunch and yummy desserts and wished the birthday boy a super "Happy Birthday"!</span></span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Before each guest left, I made sure to give them all an awesome favor bag. This may have been one of my favorites to date! It had a custom t-shirt and a personalized notebook I created with my handy dandy Cricut machine as well as the coolest guitar pen and a handful of <a href="http://www.orientaltrading.com/personalized-black-guitar-picks-a2-13736871.fltr?mode=Searching&parentSkuName=personalized-guitar-picks&parentSku=13786604&keyword=guitar%20pick&originalkeyword=guitar%20pens" target="_blank">custom guitar picks</a>.</span></span><br />

turf carpet around a plain canvas and adding an amazing tissue tassel garland
representing all the colors of spring!</span></span></div>

holidays and all the wonderfully magical things that come along with it. I have always adored the story of the

buttercream ruffles and adorned with beautiful red and plum blooms as well as
the sweetest little angelic ballerinas and a <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/ShopSugarPartiesLA?ref=search_shop_redirect" target="_blank">glittery gold number six!</a></span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Is it just me, or are you always frantically addressing your Christmas cards a couple days before Christmas along with the million other things you still need to get done? This year I decided to take a little stress out of the Holiday season and invite some girlfriends over for a Mingle & Jingle Christmas Card Addressing Party! A Ladie's Luncheon seemed perfect! It could even take place during a weekday while all the kiddos are in school. You can address your Christmas cards, laugh and chat, all while eating yummy food and treats! Sounds like a win, win for all!!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I absolutely LOVED how my Christmas cards from <a href="https://www.shutterfly.com/cards-stationery/christmas-cards" target="_blank">Shutterfly</a> turned out so much that I decided to design the color scheme for the luncheon around them! The bright pink, yellow, turquoise and gold along with subtle pops of black and white made for a fresh and fun theme. </span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">For the centerpiece of the table I came across the most adorable felt pine trees and darling pink and gold bottle brush trees at my local Target store....of course! They always have the most darling decor for really any holiday. I also got the unique wooden tree art there as well, which I attached to a plain white canvas and hung above the dessert table as the focal point for the party. Sweet and simple! </span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I kept the food and desserts fairly simple but still fabulously yummy! I made a lovely charcuterie platter for the savory and served darling little macrons and a delicious buttercream covered chocolate cake for the sweet. It was the perfect combination to snack on before diving in to the Christmas card addressing.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I love hand addressing Christmas cards versus having them printed. It just gives that extra personalized touch as well as gives me a chance to experiment with all different fonts, markers and pens. But seriously, let's talk about these darling Christmas cards! They have such a wide selection of cards to choose from. I chose their NEW gate-fold card. </span><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-WZWUCZsCMxA/WhoAw2Vhj1I/AAAAAAAACzk/22wi0ByhLks5PeV5tCNo1ltDhNu8fMVdwCEwYBhgL/s1600/IMG_9834.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1200" data-original-width="1600" height="480" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-WZWUCZsCMxA/WhoAw2Vhj1I/AAAAAAAACzk/22wi0ByhLks5PeV5tCNo1ltDhNu8fMVdwCEwYBhgL/s640/IMG_9834.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">They have a wide variety of super lovely designs in the gate-fold card, but I ultimately decided to challenge myself this year and use their {Upload your own design option}. Since designing invitations and printables is something I do anyways, it just allowed me to really customize the card to exactly what I wanted. I love how many extra options they offer too, like custom envelope liners, custom envelopes, pearlized finishes on the card itself plus so many more! I decided to make my life even easier this year and ordered the enveloped pre-printed with my return address. Usually I order custom return address stickers but this pre-printed option saves me that one extra step. I'm all about time saving, especially around the holidays.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">A 50th Birthday is one of those milestone birthdays that deserves an extra special celebration! So when my friend Nikelle asked me to style and design her 50th birthday, making sure to include a glamorous dessert table, I was thrilled and honored and couldn't wait to get started! </span></span></div>
<a name='more'></a><br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">We ultimately decided on an Old Hollywood Glam theme. The color palette we chose was a classy combo of black and white, glittery gold and beautiful pops of red.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Like always, I started with the invitation design as this will set the tone for the overall feel of the party and decor as well as getting the guests exited for what's to come! For this particular party, we asked all the guests to come dressed in their best Old Hollywood Glam style!</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">First up, is a simple yet sweet display idea I styled using golds, coppers, plums, lavenders, reds and hints of greens. I designed a darling sign that can adorn your dessert table or bar cart as well as some darling favor tags you can use to say "Thank You" to your guests when they are ready to leave! I attached my favor tags to these adorable little bags I found by using a lovely glittery gold clothespin. You can fill your bags with things like chocolates, cookies or whatever else you can think of. I filled mine with these delectable Godiva chocolate truffles...YUM... which happened to coordinated perfectly with my theme.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I love using pieces of furniture for display whenever possible as it adds a bit of interest to the party. Here I used a lovely white dresser and hung a whimsical tissue tassel garland across the front. I layered the dresser with a gorgeous gold sequined runner and for the backdrop, I simply hung a white ruffled shower curtain and added a few gold tissue flowers for added pop.</span><br />

<span style="color: black; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Oh, how I love fall!! Growing up in New England was a real treat during the Fall. To be able to see all the trees change to the most wonderful colors of reds, oranges, yellows and purples. If you have never been to New England in the fall, it's definitely a must do! Now that I live in the Pacific Northwest, it's definitely not as spectacular but lovely just the same! </span><br />

<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial";"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial";">What better way to welcome a new season than to say "hello" with a lovely Fall dinner. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial";">The inspiration for this family dinner came when Gail from the Plate Shoppe asked me to collaborate and incorporate some of her beautifully designed Melamine plates into a Fall tablescape. When I saw her purple <a href="https://plateshoppe.com/products/garden-dinner-plate-purple-combo" target="_blank">Garden Collection</a>, I fell in love! The colors were fabulous. I loved the unexpected pop of light blue and popped it throughout the design. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial";">The invitation and printables were designed first and I just adore how they turned out. They paired beautifully with the plates.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Creating a beautiful tablescape is all about layering. I began by laying a pale orange woven throw with tassel fringe along the edges as the tablecloth. Next, down the center of the table, I first added a layer of Eucalyptus leaves, then placed a distressed white artichoke vase in the middle with two small geometric shaped gold vases on either side. I filled them with the most gorgeous dahlia flower blooms. I finished the look with mini pumpkins and gourds sprinkled at either end.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The place setting was made up of a round yellow woven place mat which was layered with a white distressed charger plate and finally topped with the beautiful inspiration plate. I then place a darling mini white pumpkin in the center and added a sweet little leaf shaped place card by simply attaching it with a white stick pin.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">A beautiful white linen napkin trimmed out with delicate gold beading along with the silverware was neatly tied together with a piece of light blue ribbon. The bright colored orange and purple glasses set to the right added even more pop to the already beautifully colorful tablescape. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">My favorite elements of the tablescape would have to be the darling macaron filled favor boxes set just above the place setting for the guests to discover as well as the scrumptious charcuterie board set at the end of the table for everyone to enjoy before dinner was served!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The side board table was filled with all the delicious side dishes and entrees as well as the yummy desserts. The golden yellow painted side board matched the dinner party perfectly! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I love when I am able to incorporate a piece of painted furniture to my parties. It adds a bit of whimsy and fun! Above the table I hung two white canvases with a gold leaf detail side by side and attached a darling multi colored ribbon garland at an angle across the canvases. This added just the right amount of cheer to the party. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial";"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I wanted the food to reflect the warmth and heartiness of Fall so the menu I chose consisted of roasted multi colored baby carrots, panko breaded chicken breasts finished with roasted lemons, a Fall inspired mixed green salad and a lovely zucchini and tomato ricotta tart. I was thrilled to be able to use the large wooden salad bowl along with matching serving bowls my mom had handed down to me. I love when I am able to incorporate handed down pieces!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">First up...... a Mad Hatter Tea Party!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I absolutely adore the story of Alice in Wonderland and have always wanted to use this theme for a party, so when my daughter told me she wanted to be Alice for Halloween, I knew exactly what my Trunk or Treat theme would be!</span><br />
<br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I had so much fun creating a whimsical tea party in my trunk, and it was easier than you think! Oriental Trading had so many fun, colorful and unique items that matched each other perfectly to create a cohesively fantastic display.</span><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I started by decorating the top of the trunk with whimsical <a href="http://www.orientaltrading.com/red-tissue-pom-pom-decorations-a2-13700808.fltr?keyword=tissue%20pom-pom&mode=Searching&parentSkuName=tissue-paper-pom-pom-decorations&parentSku=13702668" target="_blank">tissue puffs</a>, <a href="http://www.orientaltrading.com/garden-of-wonders-cutouts-a2-13759178.fltr?keyword=tea+party+cutouts" target="_blank">giant tea party inspired cutouts</a> and <a href="http://www.orientaltrading.com/green-tissue-hanging-fans-a2-3_4218.fltr?keyword=multi%20colored%20tissue%20puffs&mode=Searching&parentSkuName=tissue-hanging-fans&parentSku=13601751" target="_blank">green tissue fans</a>. I created the most darling topiary to go on either side using various sized<a href="http://www.orientaltrading.com/green-tissue-hanging-fans-a2-3_4218.fltr?keyword=multi%20colored%20tissue%20puffs&mode=Searching&parentSkuName=tissue-hanging-fans&parentSku=13601751" target="_blank"> green tissue fans</a>, red card stock circles and hand drawn urns. This was such a quick and easy craft to create.</span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> I then took a 6 foot table with legs down on only one side and had it jutting out of the back to create my table. I placed a white tablecloth on top, a <a href="http://www.orientaltrading.com/black-and-white-checkered-plastic-tablecloth-a2-26_2215.fltr?keyword=checkered+table+runner" target="_blank">checkered table runner</a> and some <a href="http://www.orientaltrading.com/playing-card-cutouts-a2-70_7581.fltr?keyword=giant+playing+cards" target="_blank">huge playing cards</a> in front for some added whimsy!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I decorated the table with <a href="http://www.orientaltrading.com/tea-party-dinner-plates-a2-13770329.fltr?categoryId=551217&rd=sale%20plates" target="_blank">brightly colored plates</a>, <a href="http://www.orientaltrading.com/black-and-white-striped-cloth-napkins-a2-13781802.fltr?keyword=black+and+white+striped+napkins" target="_blank">napkins</a>, tea cup flower arrangements, <a href="http://www.orientaltrading.com/fiesta-flower-tissue-centerpieces-a2-13700851.fltr" target="_blank">multi colored tissue puffs</a> and finally, the most adorable <a href="http://www.orientaltrading.com/garden-of-wonders-centerpiece-a2-13758688.fltr" target="_blank">Mad Hatter themed centerpiece</a>.</span><br />
