Peacock-inspired dessert glam.

I'm working on an art deco-inspired wedding that draws color inspiration from a peacock. Imagine my excitement when I came across this beautiful post on Style Me Pretty a couple of weeks ago. Aren't these photos exquisite? Follow the link above for full credits.

A dinner party for Oscar.

Hello all! I'm off to a slow start today after hosting a small dinner party and Oscar viewing last night. Thought I'd share a few photos of the table I put together using things I found lying around the house. The backside of a wintery tablecloth was gold and shimmery, so it provided a great base to start with. I added our simple white dishes (they go with everything!), a favorite cake platter and some pretty white candle holders. I discovered a negative frame in my craft supplies that finished off the look. I cut it up into placecard holders for each of our guests. They definitely got a giggle out of them, and that made me really happy. =)







Did you host an Oscar party? Tell me about it! =)

One great photo.

Sharing a serene and beautiful image by the talented team at Segerius-Bruce Photography today. I love the angle this photo was taken from, the tangible emotions of this couple, and those cobblestones (!). Amazing.

Have a great weekend!

Shipping update.

Just wanted to pop in to make note of one minor change in the Etsy shop! In order to be more efficient, table numbers will now be shipped out on Tuesdays and Fridays. Feel free to email me with any questions about this. Thanks! =)

The most colorful cake possibly ever.

Inkeeping with Monday's colorful inspiration board, check out this 28 layer cake. Isn't it incredible?!

Etsy jewelry find: chain chain chained.

I absolutely adore chain chain chained's Etsy shop. Each item has been so thoughtfully put together, and the result is both delightful and quirky. Wouldn't the BFF necklace be a great gift for a maid of honor? Enjoy!

Color Combo: Berry, Blue Raspberry, Kelly + Goldenrod.

It's March! Spring is near! When Lori Marie posted a recent (and delightful) foray into crochet on her Pretty Little Things blog last week, I felt inspired to put together a color combination board in her honor. Filled with juicy colors (berry, blue raspberry, kelly green + goldenrod), this palette would be oh-so-appropriate for this time of year. Don't these colors just fill you with joy?
