Christmas Room Tour, 2021

 Hey everyone, this is super random, but going through photos I realized I never shared my Christmas decorations. So here is either a very late or a very early Christmas room tour (from 2021). I decorated the mirror with hot-glued plants from outside. They are still holding on and look golden despite being dead! I added a bow and bell from a Dollar Tree pack of bells. I made the banner out of cut and tied strips of fabric. Most of the decorations came from thrift stores, others were gifts or décor I had from previous years. I wanted a very simple, minimalist feel with blush pink, burgundy, gold, and neutral brown colors. 

I hope you enjoyed!

A Licorice-Themed (Halloween-ish) Birthday Party

 

Hello, today I am excited to share a party I never posted from way back in September I did for my grandma. I had no idea what theme to do, and I was inspired when sometime near her birthday she mentioned how she loved licorice, which I already knew, but in desperation for a theme a thought that perhaps licorice could be my theme. Her birthday is the month before Halloween, so I ended up doing not only licorice and sweets for the décor, but also a bat and dark, moody/elegant colors like burgundy and black with blush pink, other pinks, and tan. I used fabric cut into long strips for the background of the display (from fabric donated to me as I mentioned in a previous post and had on hand), all looped around a string or fabric strip at the top. I draped the fabric over a pegboard. I made matching kabob sticks with Dollar Tree candies and licorice, and also got Dollar Tree cookies. The big pink candy decoration was fabric tied around a balloon. The licorice stick decoration next to it was black fabric hot-glued to a recycled protein powder container. The licorice-looking word banner was made of hot glue on cardstock letters all painted black. 

I hope this is helpful for other licorice/candy lovers with upcoming birthdays or as Halloween party inspiration!

Easter Party, 2017

Hey, everyone! I've been caught up in homework, so it's been a long time since I last posted. Here's my 2017 Easter party. I put it together the morning of Easter, so it is very simple and minimalist. 

I know, it's very small. But Mother's Day is coming up, and I'll be sharing a Frozen party in June. I'll be posting again soon, so be sure to come back!
