Pretty packaging

I love giving gifts, but I love wrapping them even more!

How cute is this fun present? 

I wrapped the package in craft paper and then drew lines on the front to mimic garland.

With a heart hole punch and some paint chips I had lying around, I punched out the tiny hearts and glued them onto the craft paper under the lines. Voila a beautiful gift!

Wonder what's inside?

Here we come sunny so cal!

CJ and I are off to visit a few friends this weekend.

I can't wait for my little guy to meet some very special people!

Felt flowers and rice krispies

Some sweet treats I made for my valentine's this year:

 


Instead of laying out rice krispies in a baking pan - I molded them in heart shaped cookie cutters, wrapped them in a clear baggie and tied on (my favorite) a felt heart!

 
Happy Valentine's Day!

Summer wedding

A few details from a wedding I had planned last summer.


Programs


The bride and groom wanted cookie cake for dessert. We displayed the cakes on vintage cake stands at different levels. It was different and so pretty!


Place cards

1, 2, 3

A fun way to display the months as baby gets older.

Cut out felt numbers for each month, take the picture and hang both on a clothesline!

So simple!



The tiny clothespins are too cute :)
