I love the girls over at One Charming Party. They come up with the best ideas for fabulous kids parties and they’re super awesome ladies in real life, too. Love that! Brittany and Sara recently shared this festive water party they designed to inspire colorful summer celebrations. Here in the Northeast, Memorial Day weekend officially …

Good Monday morning, loves! I hope you had the best weekend. I attended the wedding of one of my bestest girlfriends in gorgeous Saratoga Springs and I’m looking forward to a week of gorgeous party and wedding ideas. Plus, my mom and I are throwing our 4th annual margarita party over the upcoming holiday weekend …
Hi all! It’s me, Chelsea, swinging by from Lovely Indeed to drop off a quick and easy DIY that you can print out and make in a flash. Today, we’re staging our own cupcake protest! Have you ever really, really wanted to eat dessert, but had some sort of hangup about the calories involved? Well …
Sometimes the simplest ideas are the very best ones of all. Take these first birthday party invitations for instance. Letterpress printed and paired with a single birthday candle and fabulous packaging, they’re about as charming as they get. Created by Chelsea of Sugar Paper for her son Owen’s first birthday celebration, these invitations are a …
It may only be Wednesday, but I’m already looking forward to spending a quiet Mother’s Day brunch with my mom this weekend. This will be the first year it’s just the two of us now that my siblings have both relocated and can’t make it home, so it will be low key but we always …
When I spied Emerson’s first birthday party on EAD Living, I fell in love. It’s sweet and pink and loaded with fun little homemade pies and a pretty birthday cake that looks almost too good to eat. I love birthday parties that skip the cartoon characters in lieu of something a bit more homespun and …
Good morning, friends! I hope everyone had a lovely weekend. I am so excited for this week because I’ll be traveling to St. Petersburg, Florida for a long weekend to celebrate my cousin’s wedding. A little sun and fun are just what I need right now. With celebration on my mind, I’m loving these pretty …
I’m still on a pink kick, it seems, and this pretty pink rainbow cake was the perfect inspiration for a sweets-inspired color palette. I just can’t get enough of simple cakes with dollops of homemade frosting and pretty cake bunting. A couple of bamboo skewers and little slips of ribbon are all it takes to …
HI! It’s Jenny from Hank + Hunt with another party accoutrement DIY for you, my pretties. So, I have three whole rolls of this AMAZING 1960s contact paper for lining shelves. While I have had them since before I got married (ahem) a while ago, I have never lined a shelf with it. I just …
Happy Friday, everyone! I am really looking forward to the weekend, I’ve got to say. I’ve been fighting the flu this week (which explains why it’s been a little quieter than usual around these parts) and I’m looking forward to some extra sleep and a quiet little birthday celebration with my family. Plus, next week …
A few times now we’ve talked about my love for pancakes and breakfast in general. (A breakfast birthday party? Fabulous.) So, I have to say I truly believe a little stack of cake batter pancakes loaded with sprinkles and drizzled with icing sound like the perfect birthday treat. Today I am spending a quiet day …
