XO XO

What’s a wedding without some hugs and kisses?  I love a little XO detail so decided it was time for some EX OH inspo!

These XO treats are too cute to eat!

Hug and Kiss cupcakes would be perfect for a wedding or shower.  Guests would eat these right up.  Adorable!

You could top your cake with some Xs and Os…

I love the Xs & Os hanging over the table.  Aren’t they charming?

X & O photo props!!!  Super cute for an engagement session, especially if you are having some XO accents at the wedding.

Isn’t this hug & kiss confetti a cute touch?  You could make your own in colors that coordinate with your wedding.

Oh, I will definitely be making some of these XO gift tags.  A sweet touch for gifts given for weddings, showers, or anniversaries.

My earring collection is definitely missing these!

If anything… an XO ring shot is just lovely!

Colors of the week — purple & orange

February 21, 2011   

I need a dose of bold and bright today, so here it is…. PURPLE and ORANGE.  I love the colors together so thought I’d put together some purple and orange inspiration for you.   I think this is a great eye catching color combo perfect for a wedding or party.  What do you think?

Coffee craze

January 12, 2011   

So, today I am off to a sluggish start.  I’m on my second cup of coffee and I haven’t even been up an hour. I am nothing without my coffee, which is what inspired today’s post.  A delicious cup of Joe is on the top of my list of things I could NOT live without. While I was pouring my coffee (wishing it was Dunkin Donuts) I had a thought……. how about a coffee inspired wedding?  I know I’m not the only coffee lover, so for all you coffee connoisseurs… here is some inspiration.

A Perfect Pear

January 4, 2011   

Before the holidays, I told you about some inspiration boards I put together for a party I was planning.  I have already posted my Picture Perfect inspo board.  Today I’m sharing A Perfect Pear.  I love this idea for a bridal shower or wedding. If you are creative enough, this theme could also be tweaked  for a twin baby shower. What are your thoughts?
