If you’ve got ANY sort of celebration coming up… from a birthday to a bridal/baby shower to a spring luncheon or cocktail party, today’s Surprise Giveaway should be especially inviting!
The giveaway comes from PlatesAndNapkins.com – an online party supply shop that has tons – and I mean TONS – of fabulous paper partyware & accessories for all sorts of occasions.
This week at HWTM, PlatesAndNapkins.com is offering up a $100 Shopping Spree to a lucky reader… which will go a long way in boosting that party budget (for yourself or a hostess friend)!
Since the selection of patterns and prints is so extensive, it was hard to choose what to feature in this post, but above and below is a small sampling of some personal favorites…
*****
Starting at the very top: The new Plum Blossom collection is absolutely gorgeous – and was actually the inspiration for this Love in Bloom inspiration board, and I’m also loving the brand new (and very contemporary-looking!) Eden Floral and Early Bird patterns.
And in image #2, vintage humor beverage napkins by Anne Taintor are always a favorite – and soooo perfect for a girls night cocktail party!
Pictured above: some black & white favorites – the new Stripe Border collection (also available in lime green and fuchsia colorways), Peace Dessert Plates, Spots Lunch Napkins, Big Stripes Napkins, and the Serengeti Zebra Black & White collection (as seen in the Cirque Du Bebe baby shower theme).
Pictured above: new Butterflies Dessert Plates, Capri Orange Dessert Plates, and solid partyware.
And last but not least – the cool & contemporary Cane Print Beverage Napkins in several different color options:

I love the black, white and bold all over collection! I would definitely buy those!
Plum blossom, Eden Floral, and Early Bird are my faves! One or ALL could really come in handy with two bridal showers and one baby shower in the works!
the “plum blossom silver” plates and napkins would be perfect for my wedding!
I thought I was going to search through all of the great stuff at the website, but as soon as the page loaded I found my fave: Filigree 7 inch Plates! So adorable and perfect for my home! :)
I love the cane print! So cute and chic, perfect for a festive birthday party during this dreary winter! Great way to liven things up!
Love the Serengeti zebra stuff!
Well, because it’s my 40th birthday party in two weeks, I’m going to go with Because It’s Ladies Night. What better way to celebrate than with these sassy, retro inspired designs that will have my guests rolling!
PICK ME PICK ME!!!
I am throwing my best friend a wedding shower in april and would love to make it the best party ever!!! we’ve been exchanging ann taintor stuff for years and that would be a perfect theme! ann’s always been a favorite of ours! :)
I’m working on3 baby showers in the next 3 months – all with different themes – the yellow polka dots would be perfect for the rubber duck shower, the zebra would help recreate the “cirque du bebe”, the sock monkey would be perfect for the sock monkey shower and the Anne Taintor napkins will be perfect when I need a cocktail at the end of it all!
I like the Plum Blossom collection. Reminds me of spring!
L-O-V-E the sock monkey plates and napkins. I’ve had an obsession since I was a kid – and these seem just right for my impending big 3-0!
I like the easter bunny prints! If i won i would probably get items in the Vichy (Red) pattern for my daughters Wizard of Oz bday party! I also love the polka dot items. There are many super cute items on this website!
Please pick me!! I love the bold colors and fresh prints. The bird is my fav–perfect for my women’s group picnic coming up on my patio!
Definitely the early bird pattern! It is so fun and the colors are bright and happy (to ward of these winter blues).
The cane ware is simply inspired. I heart parties!
