Swap Soiree
Today I am turning another year older. I always feel so blessed to do so. So I am celebrating with a Swap Soiree. Swap Soiree I mentioned before that we recently downsized.

I wrapped pale pink Martha Stewart party favor boxes from TJ Maxx with vintage paper lace. The happy image was then glued on over the ribbon. The paper punch flower ... View the Post
A Rose By Any Other Name Birthday Centerpiece
Late last year I began gathering party inspiration ideas for my Grandma Jingles 90th birthday celebration. They can be found on my Pinterest party board here. It resulted in A Rose By Any Other Name Birthday Centerpiece. A Rose By Any Other Name Birthday Centerpiece One of the images that I just adored was this floral arrangement from Twig and Thistle. The arrangement had everything my grandmother loves~ flowers, peachy pink, and a touch of vintage. Of course, you can’t always find ... View the Post
