Craftastic Adventures of Fall


Hello,
Enjoying your Tuesday so far? Well it's about to get a little bit cheerier because it's time to break out the glue gun! It's all about crafting today and enhancing that gorgeous home of yours. I know that you are all busy planning a menu for turkey day next week because you're an amazing domestic goddess! Duh! Anyways, while your juggling a menu, cooking and guests don't forget about fall decor! These craft ideas are super simple even for the novice crafter.

Fall Dinner Party Part II


Hello there lovelies!

This past week I shared the first part of my dinner party series including the menu, the inspiration. Today, it's all about the tablescapes, the centerpieces, and favors! Oh I LOVE favors and especially the handmade kind- they are so much more special than anything store bought. 

Creating a tablescape isn't that intimidating at all and in fact you can use whatever you have on hand. There's no need to go buy colored linens or spend a lot of money. If you have a white/cream colored table cloth, use it! Then layer that with some orange or yellow votives down the length of the table. You can find votives anywhere and to add a special touch tie a ribbon around the votive. Try an orange candle with a light green ribbon or a red candle with a mustard yellow ribbon.
