A Girly Girl Weekend!

Such a VERY Fun weekend! 

Saturday was a vintage themed birthday party for my sweet friend CeeKay from Thinking of Home. 

It was such a beautiful day and the company was superb!

You really need to see more! The decor was all of her  precious momentos. 

Stop by and see her.

Make sure you wish her Happy Birthday!

  Sunday... well that was a special day.

Wedding dress shopping.  Sigh....

It really has all the feel of a rite of passage. 

So touching and sentimental. 

I can't really even express what a joy it is to help 

a beautiful young woman transition to the next part

of her life.

 Sunday night we celebrated Valentine's Day at The Keg. 

A yummy, medium priced steakhouse.

This is my 6oz steak....

 This is Husband's 20oz steak.

I just had to share that. I thought it was kind of funny.

So that is the weekend wrap up. 

I hope you had a wonderful weekend!

  

 Oh! AND P.S.

Yes! There is a DRESS!

 Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

Shabby Chic Meets Sweet Salvage on Mother's Day

On Sunday, in the midst of entertaining tons of family, packing her apartment up to move back to Phoenix and just enjoying the satisfaction of finishing law school, Sweet Daughter took my friend Debi and I to a wonderful Mother's Day Lunch.  When I asked her where we were going she said Chaps. Well, I pictured something totally diferent and she said "No! Trust me! You and Debi will 

LOVE this place!" I said " Oh! Okay....."

Oh! My! Gosh! Did she call it right! 

 What a SWEET delightful place! I'm telling you this is my heaven. 

We even got to meet the owner, Celeste Shaw. What a sweetheart. 

If you are ever in the Spokane area you must go here.

Quick, Fun and Easy Centerpieces

A couple of weeks ago I was invited to help with a Fall Harvest Brunch. 

The theme was to be hospitality and all its different forms. 

So that included all different price ranges and budgets.

 We had a lot of tables and as always a small budget and limited time frame.

So I fell back on one of my previous ideas that I had used at 

Thanksgiving a couple of 

years ago.

 As with most things timing is everything. I was hoping to do fresh flowers, but Michale's had all the Autumn floral for 60% off and time was going to be short the day of the party. 

So I opted for silks.

 This is what the floor of my craft room looked like. 

As always, I had the supervisory help 

of my ever capable 3 legged kitty.... Midge.

 Here are 6 cans that I did.

 Super fast

 Super simple!

Super cheap!

Royal-TEA Par-TEA Favors

Saturday is the Arizona Blogger's Royal Tea sponsored and organized by the Lovely Laura at Decor to Adore. We will be celebrating William and Kate's engagement with all things royal.

So of course this is a perfect time to share a tiny treasure with all the ladies.

So I made 15 of these little babies.... I hope all the Royal Tea Attendants like them!
