Mandy at Everyday Obsession sent me these beautiful pictures of a green and white bridal she hosted for a girlfriend back in May. And as many of us are, she was inspired by the talented Amy Atlas.
Aren’t these vanilla pudding shot glasses adorable,
And these cake balls yummy?! Make sure you hop over to Mandy’s blog to see all the details!
Born and raised in the South, transplanted to Ohio in my mid 20s, I need a few things to keep me grounded in my Southern roots. And laugh if you wish, but one of those things is my Southern Living magazine. {wink} The articles, the recipes, the images of the region… ahhhh!
So this weekend when I curled up with a cup of coffee and the latest issue, I saw this perfect shower idea for a beverage bar (right image). The half carafes are simple, inexpensive and a very cute way to offer multiple choices.
After going to the web, I found a few more things, like this chalk board beverage tag idea. The only thing I would do differently is use a whimsy template for a more ornate look.
And what about these very clever berry ice cubes (inside the drink) and decorative bottle coolers (around the drink). Love it! And for those of you that know anything about the South, creative ways to keep your beverages cold in the summer is a necessity!
Happy Monday!
Early last week I launched our newest collection, the “something blue” bridal shower. I always start with an inspiration board, so I thought I would share a few of the items that made my bling and blue list:
Make sure you buzz over to the shoppe and see all the details of our new “something blue” bridal shower from silver plates and moire blue napkins to diamond ring favors (that double as beautiful napkin rings) and printable cupcake wrappers. Enjoy!
On Friday I posted a sneak peek of our new bridal shower: “Something Blue.” I’m proud to say that the new custom invitation, thank you and decor are now available in the shoppe.
Silver plates and moire blue crepe paper placemats.
Diamond ring and “I do” cupcake picks with beautiful silver and blue damask cupcake wrappers and white sparkling sugars. (Picks shown with 2 1/2″ circle punch, 2″ scallop punch and foam adhesive square for 3-D effect.)
Phrase “I do” and diamond ring, wine marker from our printables collection.
I put a little glitter on the diamond ring for sparkle. {wink}
Diamond ring keychain favor, that doubles as a beautiful napkin ring against the silver plates and blue moire napkins.
Or, if you prefer, printable napkin rings embellished with “I do” and diamond rings.
Bake your guests some treats with wedding ring, wedding cake (see how it can double as a dress) and wedding gift cookie cutters.
And maybe a martini glass cookie cutter could be fun too!
Throw in a little candy,
beautiful flowers, some fabulous food and you’re all set to shower your bride-to-be with an elegant party in her honor.
This table is also perfect for a snowflake themed shower. As always, I hope we’ve inspired you for your next celebration!
We just shot this beautiful bridal shower yesterday so the decor and custom invitation aren’t actually available in the shoppe just yet, but I couldn’t wait to share it with you. I call it “Somthing Blue” and it will be available early next week… or maybe sooner… so make sure and check back for all the details including an entire collection of bridal shower printables. {wink}
