Over the weekend the Fashionista hosted a fun-filled sit-down dinner for a small group of friends. I created A Cute 20 Something Tablescape. A Cute 20 Something Tablescape Much of the happy partyware (Meri Meri) was found at Target on major clearance. You are never too old for noisemakers! Simple dollar store noisemakers were customized by gluing on a paper doily, then using round paper punches in various sizes on scrapbook paper. The 8” x 12” sheets work well in the printer. ...

Pretty Cutlery Pocket
Last Friday I shared a tablescape with you that featured a Pretty Cutlery Pocket that can also hold flowers or a small gift. Today I offer a super easy tutorial on how to create it. Pretty Cutlery Pocket Any ideas what I made the pocket from? A few years ago my sister in law had given me a box of sewing notions that had belonged to my mother in law. Included was scraps of vintage drapery pleating tape. I hung on to the bits because you can rarely find cotton pleating tape anymore. ... View the Post

I also didn’t want to have to buy anything so I shopped the house. Keep reading to see what I came up with. This wreath puts a song in my heart. Around the house I collected a round wicker charger I had purchased in Germany ... View the Post
Create A Succulent Garden Using Thrift Store Containers
So many of you commented on this darling drawer of succulents from the Home Depot Garden Party. I knew you would love it as much as I did! It retails for $25.00. Although this was a concrete planter (which you could also make by following the guidelines HERE) it did get my mind thinking about what other containers could be used for a succulent garden. As I needed a cute gift for an upcoming party I stopped by the thrift store. I found several planter contenders but selected this little gem ... View the Post
Spring Splendor Arrives at my Doorstep
I recently added a bit of spring splendor to my front entry. If was no April Fool when I shamefully shared with you the state of my front door on Sunday. I had loaded up on $2 plants when I attended the Home Depot Garden Party last Saturday. I also couldn’t resist picking up two more lovely pots. Keep reading to see the fantastic floral improvement. Sometimes it’s best just to begin with a clean sweep. A huge dust storm hit Phoenix last week so the front door and window got a ... View the Post
