Glamorous Vintage Vaudeville Wedding with Mustaches {Part 1}

The pictures are in! Roxanne + Joe were married in October at the Desmond Tutu Center (and you saw a little preview here)-- and here it is in all it's amazing glory. She's such a beautiful bride, and they are such a fun  couple. I am so glad they were my first wedding clients! {Check out her inspiration board here}

Party and mustaches to come! {Images by Chellise at Photo Pink and flowers by Saipua}

Roundin' Up Christmas

Was your weekend full of Christmas shopping, like me?  Between that, the cold weather and the Christmas carols playing in the background I'm feeling in the spirit. How about you?

I love this design. {It says its a printable, but I haven't found that version yet...}

This {printable} letterhead for Santa is so sweet.

I love holiday treats as gifts.

These sugar cone trees could be really cute as centerpiece for a party or dinner.

Crazy paper totally intrigues me {even if I can't quite bring myself to use it}.

Anything you are seeing that you love for Christmas? xoxo

Black & White & Yum

I have a confession to make. I've been having an affair--with black and white. Even though I love color, and it's definitely my first love, black and white is just so clean and modern and makes a statement. I adore it.  It's even creeping into my holiday decorations.

Which is why I am loving this black and white dessert table via Amy Atlas. Lovely, right?

What about you? Do you have a color story that you are secretly crushing on? xoxo

 

 

 

Christmas Activity "Candles"

Christmas Candles has been our favorite family tradition for as long as I can remember. 

Every night in December we all gather around the kitchen table, light candles,  sing carols, read

Christmas stories, everyone says one thing they are thankful for and we end with

blowing out our candles and  opening a small gift.

I have a special "gift bag" for everyone at the table.

Like Christmas stockings, my  Christmas Candles bags are part of this tradition.

These are simple bags  drawn closed with heavy draw string tied in a bow. 

Small gifts are put in the bag. Over the years, I've learned to always have extra gifts, gift bags and candles on hand for any visitors my kids might bring home for dinner.

You can download the free instructions on how to make these Christmas Gift Bags

And what about paper stationery?  Both DIY, of course. {Source 1, source 2}
