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:

Love the Eden Floral print. Perfect for any type of springtime party.
I love everything, but especially the black & white and the polka dots!
I like the Plum Blossoms
I would pick the Retro Graduation Feet Beverage Napkins.
I LOVE so many of your new styles! I am planning a banquet for a non-profit organization…the theme will be “The Perfect 10″ in reference to the perfect 2010 season that we just finished. We always have a color scheme too, but that hasn’t been decided on yet. This prize giveaway would help our group of high school aged girls that are constantly giving back to the community! We would proudly appreciate any help to make our banquet special!
So hard to pick just one! The stripe border plates are lovely – they’d work perfectly for informal reception. The zebra plates would work perfectly for my zebra obsessed sister’s birthday party!
I like the filigree pattern.
I would get these for my daughter’s upcoming birthday party: Early Bird
Or these: Butterflies
fantastic selection!
I like the Circle Black 10 inch Plates and napkins.
i love the Graduation Foil Stamped Beverage Napkins and the Blue Grad 10 inch Plates my daughter graduates in june :)
They have so many pretty things. I love the cane print!
I like the Directors Cut 10 inch Square Plates.
Plum Blossoms
The butterfly pattern rocks:)
The Plum Blossom design is fabulous.
