Cutest Flower Girl EVER!! 

showering weddings!

Okay so I am a little behind, I have like 3 posts in my head right now but I will start with one right now. As many of you know my friend Mandy will begetting married in a few weeks. But I had the pleasure of throwing her family wedding shower. I love love love her family,  Mandy and I have been friends since birth pretty much and consider them my second family. And a funny side note her Mimi and my grandma grew up together and had slumber parties! And now her Nana and my grandma are super close, so it was kinda destiny I guess. Well anywho enough of that. I love throwing showers and parties, so for this shower I did a kitchen/recipe theme. I hand stamped over 200 note cards to look like recipe card and mailed them with the invites. We had it at this amazing place called Canyon Crossing off Old North Road in Sand Springs. But enough with the details on with the pictures!!

These are the center pieces I made, since it was a kitchen theme I just got a bunch of matching kitchen utensils and a glass vase from the dollar tree and the blue is just a kitchen towel and a doily.

I just loved the way it looked all put together!

I made everyone a personalized glass!

For food we had Caprese Salad, deli rolls, mini cinnamon rolls, and these devilishly delicious lil smokies wrapped in bacon and drizzled with brown sugar!

This punch was called Spring Time Punch. It called for champagne but I used sparkling grape juice and about a cup of orange juice and frozen mixed berries! YUM!

 This is me and 3 of my most bestest friends ever! I love these girls with all of my heart and so blessed to have them in my life!

This is Avery, one of the flower girls, I wonder if she liked the cake? ha!

Look at all those lovely gifts!

 

This is a little recipe box I made for her and all her awesome family recipes!

And we just had to play all the cheesy shower games!

This is Mandy's little sister Lacey! She is annoyingly georgeous!

We might have got a little carried away with the games! Oh well is was a blast!

Such a beautiful bride!

Well that is all for now I hope to have my Easter pics up soon! Even though it was ugly weather but it was still an awesome day starting at 6AM!!

busy busy!

Well Hello!

Ok so I am getting worse at this whole blog thing! But I am going to try to be better promise. It is like 

1230 am so I am going to make this short and sweet and just do a little photo blog.

This is a hair bow holder I made for my friend Trina at work.  The nursery is decorated in ladybugs! I got this frame at Hobby Lobby for $10 bucks mostly b/c the original paint job was terrible but I just spray painted it a shiny red a TADA! I love all the ribbons I found!

This is a recipes box I made for my friend Mandy's Family Recipe Shower this weekend. I hand stamped 200 black cards with a recipe form and sent them out in the invitations for the family to fill out and bring to the shower. I had a bunch of awesome paper I Modge Podged on here and hand wrote "Recipes" on here. HA not just printed it.

These are the center pieces I made to be given away as prizes I think they need a little something extra but I am not quite sure yet. Any suggestions? I got all of the stuff from the Dollar Tree! Woop Woop! Gotta love that place! and the vases from Target my other addiction .

This is my newly redesigned bookshelf, Mandy is getting married and being the ultimate DOF'er (thats Ditcher Of Friends) but as a lovely conciliation prize I get to keep her amazingly awesome  shelf from IKEA! and she came over the other day to help me redesign it. 

This is my favorite shelf obviously (and yes katie I stole you pic!...did you notice what my grandma bought me...it's on the bottom) The Harry Potter Pop Book deserves a post all its own...just maybe!

And the to top it all off I designed my own Bookplates! I think they are pretty rockin! and now I am in the process of labeling all my books! Whew!

Ok well that is enough for now I am exhausted! Goodnight!
