I thought it would be fun to change things up a bit this year and include some of my other hobbies on this blog as well - all design related. This winter is a perfect time to start because my baby sister got married! It was a quick engagement and thus a very hectic holiday season for my family. With a new baby, the holidays, and planning a shower and reception I had little time to design... BUT I still had lots of fun creating beautiful spaces.
So, although it's not an interior design job, I did "design" her shower and I wanted to share.
Enjoy!

I planned her bridal shower for the first weekend in December and although it was a bit overcast, the weather was perfect and I was in love with her wedding colors: gold, ivory, white, and blush.
We had a late lunch which included these delicious drinks from World Market that not only looked super cute and chic, but tasted amazing too!
I ordered the hanging paper lanterns and tissue pom poms from Just Artifacts and finished it off with white streamers from the dollar store.
The event was in my parents backyard, the meeting grounds for most of our parties!
The sign in table had photos of the cute couple mounted on gold, ivory and blush pink cardstock and hung with mini clothespins from twine. Mini loaves of pumpkin bread were the favors inside the wicker basket.
The prize for winning the "He Said, She Said" game: Hand made sugar scrub.
Centerpieces were blush pink hydrangeas and baby's breath in a simple round glass vase that we got from the dollar store. Color coordinated 1/2" confetti surrounded the vases (from Etsy.) It's all in the details.
Congrats baby sis!
