EASTER TABLESCAPES

SPRING THEMED EASTER TABLESCAPE

JOANNANo comment

I’m pretty sure everyone is thinking the same thing….how in the world is Easter next weekend already!? Although Easter is technically earlier this year – I do feel like March just started! As much as I love working in events it really speeds up the year and makes time fly way too fast! In my head I am already working on August and September stuff. Just crazy!

Anyways, back to the present! Spring time is here and Easter is around the corner! These items have inspired me to put together this Spring Themed Easter Tablescape. I hope it gives you some ideas for your own setup next week or for another spring day!

IKEA POTATO SALAD

JOANNA2 comments

To tell you the truth, normally I am not a fan of potato salad! I just haven’t found one I loveeee……but that all recently changed!

Enter the IKEA POTATO SALAD! I know you are probably wondering – did IKEA start making potato salad? Is it served in the food court? Although I’m sure that would be Ah-Mazing….this is not the case. They do have the one product that will change your life forever tho – SÅS SENAP & DILL MUSTARD SAUCE. This is truly the most delicious mustard sauce ever! Seriously that good! Now this sauce is my secret perfect ingredient in making the best potato salad!

PARTY DECOR: HOW TO MAKE TISSUE PAPER FLOWERS

JOANNA2 comments

I love planning all aspects of a party (hello food!) but one area I truly enjoy is decor. Now decor can add up super fast (HOW much for those cake stands?!) therefore I try to throw in some homemade options when possible to keep the cost down. One of my fav items to make for a party are tissue flowers!

DRINKS ST. PATRICK'S DAY

SWEET KIWI LIME DAIQUIRI

JOANNA2 comments

Have you checked the calendar recently? HOW is it March already! Not even March…..MID March! This month….year….is flying by!

Also this weekend is St. Patrick’s Day (just in case you didn’t realize due to the flying of days I mentioned above)  which does provide a good excuse to kick back and relax a bit! I’m not a huge fan of celebrating St. Patty’s day out – it’s crowded and noisy but I am not opposed to celebrating at home with a delicious cocktail! Being Saint Patrick’s Day I thought it was perfectly fitting to create a green fruity beverage to enjoy. Now normally you mainly see green beer but I’m not a huge fan of beer and leave that for my husband to enjoy. Ha! Fun fact – my husband’s name is Patryk (yes spelled that way) and he insists that we celebrate St. Patryk’s Day! I have literally written St. Patrick’s Day incorrectly about 44 times today! So instead of the typical green beer I have decided to class up this joint, throw in our daily serving of fruit (not quite but I try ha!) and present you with this fabulous Sweet Kiwi Lime Daiquiri.

INTERNATIONAL WOMEN’S DAY 2018

JOANNANo comment

HAPPY INTERNATIONAL WOMEN’S DAY!

With International Women’s Day being today I knew exactly the post I wanted to write! There are SO many amazing kick-ass women in the party/entertaining industry that I wanted to dedicate a post specifically to them. The women below are incredibly talented and beyond creative! They share their ideas as well as snippets of their lives which is always fun to follow. Most days I can’t wait until I have a moment to jump on Instagram to check out what they are preparing or what is going on with their days. Some of these women have literally shaped me in ways they will never know because it was them that encouraged me to finally take the plunge and just do it! Without the constant inspiration from their ideas over the years I would have given up on this creative dream and not given it another thought.
