A Sweet Collaboration

I have always loved the colorful creativity and thoughtful planning behind sweets tables at weddings & parties, and wanted to do one of my own. So this past weekend, I finally got to try my hand at it!

I paired up with Lori {my sister} at Boldly Chic Events to create a colorful & chic Halloween sweets table, and am so thrilled with the end result. I absolutely loved working with her to design the layout & was honored to provide the festive paperie!

{We already have 2 more sweets tables on the calendar - next up, a modern December tablescape!}

Take a hint {from Martha Stewart...}

I was strolling through the aisles of Michaels yesterday {shocker. I know!} and spent the majority of my time in the Martha Stewart section. This month, she has truly outdone herself with all of the fun Fall/Halloween craft tools & decor!

If you're planning on throwing a big {or even a small} Halloween bash, you definitely need to make a trip to Michaels there this week. Check out a few of my favorites...

Martha Stewart's test tubes are perfect for party favors or bar beverages - fill them with Halloween candy, or serve spooky-themed shots at your 21-and-over party. (Monster Blood, anyone?)

I am absolutely in love with these gothic chic, glittered paper chandeliers (who says a Halloween party can't be fabulous?)...

Spruce up your entryway or decorate behind your treats table with these fun garlands.

These incredibly detailed craft punches are perfect for scrapbooking the photos after the party is over!

Making Strides

This Saturday, we're pairing up with Boldly Chic Events for the 2010 Breast Cancer Walk in downtown Indy. It is such a great cause that is close to my family's heart.

I personally will be walking in honor of my grandmother, who battled breast cancer fearlessly - unfortunately, she lost her battle in the summer of 1995. I will never forget her courage, strength & loving presence in my life.

If you would like to help support our team with a donation, please visit our team's website. If you could forego that morning Starbucks coffee and donate $5 instead, we would greatly appreciate your help! {Every little bit helps!}

Your support enables the American Cancer Society to save lives by:

• Helping people stay well by educating and empowering women to live healthy lives and reduce their risk for breast cancer, and to get screening tests such as mammograms to find breast cancer early, when it is most treatable
• Helping people facing breast cancer get well by providing information, day-to-day help, and emotional support to guide them through every step of their breast cancer experience
• Finding cures by investing in and conducting research that leads to groundbreaking discoveries into breast cancer’s causes and cures
• Fighting back by working with lawmakers to support laws that help women battle breast cancer and help all women get access to screenings and care

Thank you for your support! Let's fight this disease in hopes that our daughters & granddaughters will never have to face the battle.

Colorful Collaboration

We recently paired up with Lori from Boldly Chic Events for a Mother's Day event, & she continues to amaze me with her eye for style! The event was complete with gorgeous yellows, beautiful vintage pieces, and insanely delicious food.
