Oh, yes my friends, you’re seeing correctly. Monogrammed toilet paper! Would you believe it?! So if you’re really monogrammed obsessed, get some for your bathroom or your event. Or if you really just think you’re funny and you’re standing up in someone’s wedding, why not get some of this fab paper and toilet paper the couple’s new home before the wedding…like they used to before football games. Ha. Just don’t tell them it was my idea…because I’m trying to keep the halo on my head nice and shiny! lol
Set of two individually shrink-wrapped rolls (same initial) comes in a clear plastic gift box with gold ribbon. Two-ply, 500 sheets per roll. Also great for the hostess who has everything, or as part of a wedding shower gift!
The other night I was watching a cooking show, where they actually used a disco ball to pour martinis! They first poked 3 holes in the bottom of the ball, and a larger hole on top. They hung the disco ball with a heavy-duty string, and set up martini glasses in a circle under the ball. They used a funnel to pour the mixed martini into the disco ball through the top hole, and as the mix went into the ball, it came out through the bottom 3 holes which then poured into the martini glasses as the disco ball turned! IT WAS SO COOL!!!
I thought to myself, how cool would that be to hire some awesome flair bartenders for your event to not only make some yummy cocktails, but to provide some great entertainment as well! Tried finding the video on that, had no luck, but instead found this…which is also very cool. Check it out!
I love cake! And if you know me, you know how I’ve been obsessing over the fact that I got jipped out of my own wedding cake at our wedding…lol. Yes, my husband thinks I’m crazy every time I tell this story, but here it is. Aside from marrying the man I love, the other thing I was looking forward to at my wedding was eating our wedding cake!
Well, we did the cake cutting together, I got a bite, went to grab the plate of cake to bring to the table and eat (I was SO excited to eat that cake!!!), and my husband thought it’d be a good idea that we instead wait and eat the cake together with our guests, after dinner. Ok fine.
Well, after dinner I figured our cake would be served…instead, the hall had cut it and allowed guests to grab their own plate by the cake table. As the night flew by, I was too busy to think about it, enjoying our night an all…and so I never got my cake. I’d only had the bite my husband served to me during our cake cutting.
JIPPED? No, not yet…it’d be ok, we’d just freeze the cake and I’d eat it on our anniversary. “I can wait again, I suppose,” I thought to myself. Well, apparently we didn’t freeze it well enough, because it grew moldy. However I was still determined, mold and all, to eat around it, figuring some of it still had to be good, people eat frozen cakes all the time on their anniversary, right? Nope, I couldn’t do it. It just went bad. Damn it!
So now I constantly crave cake, and I think it’s because I got jipped out of our wedding cake. What’s a girl to do? Enjoy other people’s wedding cakes! That’s the next best thing, right? Thank goodness my friends are all getting married!!! They say, “let them eat cake”. Fine, as long as I get mine!
Moral of the story? Brides, make sure your cake is SERVED not just presented. Get yours!
Small spaces can make great places! See how this guy got creative and made his small space the perfect living space! I dedicate this post to my sister, who loves decorating her home over and over again, and to my other sister who just moved into her own little small but perfect space!
What a beautiful cactus-like plant (technically a succulent)! I don’t have a good green thumb, but I do have good eyes (well, those aren’t great either, but with contacts I’m all good…lol) which allow me to appreciate the looks of this! “It’s a super-tough beauty known as an Aloe Saponaria, and get this - it blooms in the winter!” - www.dominomag.com
I’m loving the paper lights couples are having hung from ceilings in different colors, and at different lengths, it really creates a dramatic effect! I also love the idea of putting candles with hurricane glasses around a fountain, makes for a stunning romantic atmosphere!
This is a must have for me, because it’s ME! :) I officially must have this bag. For the girl who can do a lot, but for some reason cooking and cleaning doesn’t fall into her specialty category. Hey, this would even make a great wedding gift!
The newest band I’m loving right now is “Paramore“. Check out this video, this girl’s got such a beautiful strong voice, and knows how to rock it! If I remember correctly, I believe she’s only 18, can you believe it?!
Think Avril Lavigne meets The Cranberries maybe? Whatever it is, it’s good. Good fun “punk” as some may call it, but I still say it’s “pop/alternative“. Whatever you call it, check out this song/video, and see if you like it!
If you do love it, go out and grab their CD, “Paramore - RIOT”. Rock on.

Suspended linen is framed by rope, creating an open, relaxed feeling that’s perfect in its imperfection, which may be exactly what you need!Firefly Restaurant’s fix is a simple solution that anyone could adapt to their own space with some cloth, rope and a heavy duty staple gun.”

‘A Japanese pastry chef and jeweller have joined forces to create a spectacular cake festooned with platinum ornaments.
Nobue Ikara’s multi-tiered cake is draped in platinum necklaces as well as edible platinum foils, which can be worn either as a hair pin or as a necklace, ndtv.com reports.
The cake has been dedicated to Japanese actress Rinko Kikuchi, leading model Chie Kumasawa as well as other eminent women across the arts and in industry and was constructed as a promotional tool to entice women to buy more platinum jewellery.
Mikiko Ichikawa, of the Platinum Guild, said: “I think platinum and a white cake is the best possible combination as a present for women because both have the same colour of white, which is said to have pureness and brightness that lasts forever.”‘
I’ve officially almost seen it all…lol. A beer mug flower arrangement. Hey, it’s all good!
I like to imagine how much guys would appreciate this floral arrangement if they were even half as wedding obsessed as some of us women are! I can just picture a groomsman saying, “Dude, I found this totally perfect flower arrangement for the bachelor party!”
Riiiiight….
Fear not, if your guy must have this, ha ha, he can get it at:
This blogger thought about providing interesting choices on her rsvp cards. While I will not name the blog since I’m trying to keep mine somewhat PG, it still deserves recognition…as it’s too funny! To see this blog, click Here.
The blogger was planning her wedding, and was finding it funny to predict guests’ feelings on declining or attending on the rsvp cards. Instead of writing, “Regretfully decline,” or “Happily Attend”, she thought why not make up a new card. Short and simple. Will Attend, or Will Not Attend.
The cards she sent out:
After she sent out the above cards, she started wondering if she should have made more choices available. The choices were hilarious!
Sometimes wedding planning can get stressful, worrying about the details of every little thing. What to write, what not to write……what to serve, what not to serve, etc. Which is why it’s always handy to have a wedding planner help you with these decisions. :) We’ll make it stress-free. Fun. Memorable. Yours.

Since I’ve been obsessing over cupcakes lately (I know, it’s sad, I even dreampt about them last night!), I thought I’d post about this yummy book I found, “Cupcakes!”, by Elinor Klivans.
Sweet for the mind, great for the soul, cupcakes can just be so warming to one’s heart! Especially when right out of the oven! “Packed with easy-to-follow recipes and beautiful photographs, this extensive guide is a must-have for cupcake lovers.

I’ll never forget, when I was in high school, I created a HUGE collage on my wall. It was a work of art that I took great pride in. I’m still amazed to this day that my mother let me put tape on that wall…but I’m thankful.
My collage was made out of art, magazine clippings, articles, words, everything I’d find that described me, went up on that wall. No pictures of people, just art and words.
Today, I enjoy creating collages on other items, such as bottles, vases, boxes, frames, you name it. I just enjoy making them personal, as each one is different to describe the person it’s being made for.
I’ll show you some of my work soon, but for now I want to share another artist who makes amazing collages, with portraits. Michelle Caplan. I’ve seen this work done before, but never so beautiful as this.
Go to http://michellecaplan.blogspot.com/, to see more of what I’m loving! Her work is breathtaking…it really captures the moments, and creates a beautiful treasures to forever hold onto. Here’s one piece she did…check it out! Tell me that’s not true love!

While browsing through one of my favorite stores, “World Market” the other day (wasting time so I didn’t have to sit in rush hour traffic), I came across an awesome deal! They currently have these wonderful outdoor wooden folding chairs, on sale…2 for $25.00! As I say sometimes when I’m totally being dorky, “It’s not a deal, it’s a steal!”.
If you’re looking for some outside patio chairs or even a few extras to keep handy for the upcoming holidays, these chairs are very cool. Had to share!

“You get a better sense of what direction you should be going in. Realize that you should not do this alone; you need to register with accredited agencies that can teach and mainline you for success.”
My horoscope for the day…hmm!
And now my deep thought for the day:
”To build an empire, one must first learn how to properly lay bricks.”
Sometimes, when I’m on the computer, searching for new unique event planning ideas, pictures, etc., I get a little post crazy. I just can’t help it, I become obsessed with all the pretty little things out there. I love it all, so I have to share!
Now, picture me. If you know me personally and you know me well, you will laugh at this. This is so me. I used to type in the living room while my husband was on the couch, and he’d be amazed at how fast I type. It’s true, I’m a very fast typist. He used to enjoy the sound of the clickety-clacking on the keyboard, which makes me laugh even more. Check this out…it’s just too perfect!
I came across this picture from www.artfotoblog.com, and it immediately caught my eye. If you look closely, it almost looks as though the bride’s veil is making the shape of wings, making her even more “angelic” looking than she already was that day.
There are so many amazing poses for photographers to shoot. Some, however, are best when the people in the picture are not even aware the shot is being taken.
Make sure before your wedding day that you interview several photographers, ask them tons of questions. Handing them a “must take photo” list can come in handy the day of, to make sure your photographer gets the shots taken that are really important to you.
If you are worried about photography poses taking too much time out of your wedding day, no worries! Several brides choose to have their pictures done ahead of time, sometimes even days or weeks ahead!
This idea works great for portraits of the bride, many will put that dress on in advance, get those pictures done, so on their wedding day there is less time posing and more time enjoying their actual wedding day. After all, it only happens once!
For ideas on what questions to ask photographers, or for “must take photo” inspiration, check out www.theknot.com, a very useful and helpful wedding planning site!

Make many, as these little suckers will go fast!
Every once in a while I find amazing artists through blogging, and just have to share them! Check out this art by www.stellaimhultberg.com:
One of the reasons I love art, whether it’s on paper, through music, dance, or other things, is how it can make you feel. How you can find yourself relating to it, how it calms you and helps you find peace. When something you can relate to touches your heart, it really just makes it so awesome. Do you concur?
While browsing through a few of my favorite blogs, I came across this post from “Life Design Event Planning”, http://blog.lifedesignevents.com/.
A talented and inspirational event planner, this blogger is asking for our help. A close family member of hers has been diagnosed with cancer. While it’s easy to sit back and do nothing, it’s hard to imagine it being your family member or your friend. I ask myself, “If I posted a blog asking people to help someone dear to me, would I want people to sit back and pretend they didn’t read it?”. The answer is no. So I have posted this blog, to ask those of you who can help, in any way, to please help.
Whether it’s posting this on your blog, walking for the cure, donating, or starting your own fundraising efforts, let’s all fight for the cure the best way we can. And to those who have had family members or friends/loved ones pass from this disease, you’re in my prayers. God bless, take care, and let’s take care of eachother. Here’s a link to her fundraising site…if you are interested in donating. She’s willing to send the first 10 people who donate a wine charm, as shown below, if you go through her site.
So many friends getting married, so many events to plan and look forward to, so I figured I’d start a blog…of all things creative & inspirational, to do with event planning, art, love, life, and yours truly. Enjoy!

Always fascinated by cupcakes and their yumminess, I enjoy finding ideas on how to decorate them! What a perfect idea this would be, for any engagement party, shower, or bachelorette party! Just stick fake diamond plastic rings into the frosting, and wa-la! Even great for a wedding!
UPDATED: This past weekend I helped host a bridal shower for one of my very good friends, and decided to make these fun little diamond ring cupcakes! They were a hit!
Just found out the exciting news that my best friend is having a boy! Confirmed today at her doctor’s appointment, she is having a baby boy! Yes! I’m so excited for her. Asked if she had some names picked out, and still none yet. But while she’s obsessing over that, I can finally start obsessing over her baby shower plans!!!
I have the cutest ideas in mind. One year, for some friends of mine, I made a diaper cake. Super cute. Super easy. I also floated rubber duckies in clear glass vases filled with water. Tied candles with tiny plastic pacifiers, and, since they were having a girl, decorated in all pink…balloons, flowers, ribbon, pink pink pink! Tell me what would the world do without the color pink? No pink for this shower though, as it’s a boy on the way! So of course I’ll find neat ways to decorate with blues.
Here’s some pictures to give you an idea as to what I’m planning!
If you haven’t heard of Bellis yet, you’re about to be blessed with knowledge! Check out www.bellisstudios.com, to view some of my favorite stationery!

Bellis Studios also specializes in wedding invitations and other stationery needs.
Lately I’ve been thinking about how sometimes it’s so hard to get together with everyone, because life just gets too hectic. Sometimes you’ll make plans to eventually get together, but it’s just too easy to put off. So I’m going to fix that.
I’m thinking about planning a “Girl’s Night” one of these days. Not sure when yet, but it needs to happen soon. My girlfriends and I were doing this for a while every few weeks or so, but fell off the wagon. So I think I’ll plan one for my girlfriends, and one for the girls in my family. Two seperate get togethers. Otherwise it gets too big and it needs to be cozy! I love my family, I love my friends, and I love planning parties, so I think this is really just what the doctor ordered!
While I do not have a date set in my mind yet, planning this before the holidays come around is probably our best bet. Maybe I’ll shoot for October. I could throw a Halloween party but I think I’d prefer something more simple, and something more girly. An excuse to decorate in different color themes, besides orange and black! :) Or perhaps I could make it a holiday get together…lots to ponder!
What a better way to start a girls night…than with the boys! Only these boys of course. This CD can be found at www.socialcouture, for $18.00. Now “That’s Life”!
I’m loving this “Red Theme”, found at www.socialcouture.com, an excellent planning site for finding all the tools you’ll ever need for planning and decorating your party! Red is one of my favorite colors, and this would be perfect for a holiday party!
Let the planning begin!
Here’s another red theme I love…how fun are the polka dots!
My obsession with weddings and party planning continues…I can’t get enough! With all the great event planning blogs and sites out there, sometimes it keeps me from laundry that’s supposed to be done. But it’s ok, I’ll sneak this in between laundry loads…lol.
Check it out. Found this awesome table setting idea great for any event, whatever the occasion, I’m simply loving these colors together!
With all of our friends getting married and announcing new engagements this fall, I’ve decided to post this awesome video. I found it on another blog, www.blog.lifedesignevents.com/, but enjoyed it just as much I think as the original poster!
I’m a sucker for weddings, whether I know the couple or not, I love everything wedding! The most important thing about a wedding, in my opinion, is to have fun, and soak it up as much as you can because the day always flies by so quickly. Looks like this couple mastered the having fun part…check it out!
Sometimes I just enjoy window shopping. Even if I don’t buy anything, it’s discovering things that I get a thrill out of! Some keep a hope chest, some keep shopping bags, but I, keep a blog…and now I plan to share “a few of my favorite things”. So to start, here’s something great I came across tonight. Take a look!
Who says you’re too old to draw on the walls? Check out www.wonderfulgraffiti.com, an awesome store to find unique decor ideas for your walls. Don’t just entertain your guests, entertain your walls. Entertain yourself!
With typographical art, vinyl transfers that look “printed” on your walls, and hangings, this store has it all to make your room complete. I love it.
Oh, yes my friends, you’re seeing correctly. Monogrammed toilet paper! Would you believe it?! So if you’re really monogrammed obsessed, get some for your bathroom or your event. Or if you really just think you’re funny and you’re standing up in someone’s wedding, why not get some of this fab paper and toilet paper the couple’s new home before the wedding…like they used to before football games. Ha. Just don’t tell them it was my idea…because I’m trying to keep the halo on my head nice and shiny! lol
While browsing through one of my favorite stores, “World Market” the other day (wasting time so I didn’t have to sit in rush hour traffic), I came across an awesome deal!
