{Decor} Dino Theme

I had the pleasure of working with a mom for her son's 3rd Birthday - Dinosaur theme! She just needed a few ideas for the menu, including menu cards and some minor decor pieces such as the wood wreath around the Prehistoric Platter and the dino backdrop (no party too small!) Love the dinosaur grilled cheeses and the grapes & blueberry "eggs" Here are some of the photos - Enjoy!




















Also, watch for some gorgeous wedding shower printable photos to come after this weekend (shh!) it's a surprise!

{Decor} Paper Flowers

Just couldn't pass up sharing these amazing flowers with you. Similar to the pom-poms, however these look more like real flowers! So now I will be offering pom-poms, paper flowers or lanterns with all party packages! The best part is that they will coordinate perfectly with your tableware! Would love to hear what combination you love - invent your own! Personally, the Magnolia looking ones are my favorite or the ones with the zebra like print in the middle!

{questions} What is a Tablescape?

You may think it's a silly question, well my brother didn't and asked me that the other day. A Tablescape could be as simple as the layout of your place mats or napkins on a table surrounding a centerpiece. However, when I refer to a Tablescape, I'm describing the centerpiece of the room, the place where your eye travels first. They can be displays of candy or desserts, which perhaps is the most commonly used idea. But, they could also be your entrees - for example I recently had a brunch, and the Tablescape held tiered croissants, muffins, waffle toppings, etc. I've also seen them used in weddings to offer a variety of favors (fabulous idea!). They can be as lavish or as simple as your heart desires! The best part is that they can be at any location - outside, in your home, in a restaurant, at a wedding... there are no limits! Here are some of my favorite Tablescapes!
