♥ JMS HEARTS ♥

There are SO many cute, unique, gorgeous, amazing entertaining finds out there that I am surprised I have any money to my name. Thankfully we live in a small townhouse otherwise I would own about 73,432 cake stands and serving platters. The struggle is real folks! HA! On top of all the awesome items out there I am constantly inspired by the amazing things I see from girl bosses (and guy bosses!) on the daily.

JMS HEARTS is a new monthly feature that I have created which showcases all my entertaining favourite finds from the month….aka everything that I heart ♥!

1. MUD PIE LIME & SALT RIMMER SET ($24.50) – Heart ♥ it here!

This set would have been perfect for my “build your own Caesar cocktail bar” post that I created earlier in the month. It even provides instructions on where things go – very important if the pre-drinking has already begun! Found at Indigo Chapters.

2. IKEA TILLAGD GOLD FLATWARE ($59.99) – Heart ♥ it here!

How absolutely gorgeous is this gold flatware!? I fell in love the minute I saw it and have already dreamed up various tablescapes that involve them. Also the price is quite reasonable because I have seen them prices for over $100+. Found at Ikea.

3. LONG MARBLE & WOOD BOARD ($39.50) – Heart ♥ it here!

I feel like you can never ever have enough long boards for entertaining. Whether setting up a cheese board or using it as a plate for your appetizers – they are so universal for entertaining. Plus the marble and wood combination is just perfect! Found at Indigo Chapters.

4. OWL MOSCOW MULE MUG ($26.95) – Heart ♥ it here!

My love for owls is quite strong and this mug is a perfect statement piece for your bar cart. Such a hoot! Found at Pier One.

5. TANYA BAKES ($27.48) – Heart ♥ it here!

This book has your dessert needs covered for your next party. The recipes are amazing and the pictures are drool worthy! A must try! Found on Amazon.

 

Additional ♥’s….

How amazing do these pancakes with warm winter citrus look? I am looking for an excuse to host a brunch asap!

I will 100% be serving these candied walnut bruschetta appetizers at my next gathering. Delicious!

This copper cookeware roundup has a dreamy cake stand that I WANT.

Need a dessert? Ya enough said. Trust me it’s delicious!

VALENTINE’S DAY (QUICK & EASY) TABLESCAPE

This is the reason I created the tablescape below to show you how fun disposable party items can be which makes for such an easy cleanup afterwards!

Valentine’s Day screams pinks, reds and purples and this tablescape has all of the colours!
