I’m voting that Liz of The Papered Nest wins the prize for Wife-of-The-Year-Award for this amazing “Pots & Pig” Beer Tasting Party she threw for her husband’s 30th birthday! I know my husband would be in hog heaven, (pun intended, *wink*) if I threw him a party centered around beer + bacon! Even the party [...]

December is the most hectic month of my (Jessica Wilcox, Modern Moments Designs) life. Every year, I promise myself it will be easier and I will plan ahead, but without fail, it seems to be crazier than the last. I know many of you feel the same way, and for me “December madness” stems from [...]
Christine from Pure Joy Events coordinated this adorable LULLABY-Themed BABY SHOWER in celebration of her sister’s new bundle of joy, and from a darling “counting sheep” mobile and tissue pom “clouds” hanging overhead to a charming dessert table displayed atop a sleigh crib, this party definitely feels like a sweet lullaby-come-true! In addition to the [...]
This chic & modern dessert table by Alexandra of Enchanted Events & Design is downright gorgeous!

Over the years, I have found grapevine wreaths to be one of the most versatile home decorating elements with their ability to easily transition from season to season. It’s become almost a staple decorating item in my home. Watch how easy it is to transform a bare wreath into a year-round decor item for your [...]
“Radiant” is the perfect word to describe this warm & modern, textile-inspired HOLIDAY DINNER PARTY by Jennifer and Jeff of Honeycomb Events & Design! The chic Ikat fabric that hung on the wall behind the dessert table served as the inspiration for this entire party (Learn more about Ikat here.), and I love how Jennifer [...]
This super festive and oh-so-CLEVER holiday dessert table was inspired by the popular kids Christmas carol “Here Comes Santa Claus“ and dreamed up by Jennifer from Parents Playground NWA, who wanted party guests to be able to “SING their way down the dessert table“. How FUN is that?! And from adorable “Children Singing” cake pops to [...]

I was flattered when Jenn asked me to share the Rustic Popcorn Bar I created for a Family Reunion party over the summer.
