Milk And Cookies Birthday Party

So, this is kind of the cutest thing I've ever seen. What a fun party theme for everyone! I love how Kim from The TomKat Studio uses pink, green, and blue. Here's a peek at the fun!

Okay, this is adorable. And I don't think I'm being facetious when I say it's pretty easy.


Cute for a nursery, right?


And fairly low-cost.

The Belts Have It

So, I've always thought that high-waisted skirts were pretty classy, but it wasn't until recently that I've finally learned how to accessorize them! Adding a belt to just about any skirt really transforms the outfit and adds the perfect 'pop!' to it. Here are some examples of cute, classy, comfortable, and chic:


The red honestly makes the outfit; found HERE.


I love that the stripes pull the solids together; found HERE.


The matching purse only makes it classier; found HERE.


Sometimes matching perfectly isn't such a bad thing (: Found HERE.


This is proof that belts are adorable, no matter how thick or thin they are; found HERE.


And if you can't find any fun, out-there belts, you can't go wrong with the classic brown (: Found HERE.

Finishing Rooms

So I pretty much have my downstairs finished - I can't wait to post my great room transformation pictures.  So it's time I start working on the kids' rooms. 
I found the perfect pieces for my Boys' bedroom.

Theme:
Modern/Retro Cars and Strips



Hopefully I can pull it all together :)

Rainbow Car Birthday


My son turned 3 this summer, and he loves rainbows and cars - so we mixed the two together for his birthday theme.  It was a lot of fun, I love colorful birthdays!


My boys and I dipped pretzels and oreos and white chocolate and added sprinkles.  I dipped vintage soda bottles in chocolate and added sprinkles (see tutorial below)



The rainbow cake turned out great!  It's kind of a fun surprise because you don't know what it is going to look like until you finally cut into it at the party.  They take all day to make and feed a TON of people, but they are fun to make and eat :)




Chocolate dipped sprinkle cups tutorial (SUPER easy!)


I grabbed some vintage glasses and soda bottles out of my china hutch and cleaned them.
Then melt your melting chocolate until it is completely smooth.   Dip your cup in just at the rim, for a thin layer of chocolate.



Before the chocolate dries/hardens sprinkle with your choice of sprinkles.

Bouquet Bonanza

So, I might be the only one, but I'm in love with bouquets. I love seeing all the different combinations of flowers, but picking a favorite is impossible. Here's some of my top picks from Pinterest:


Love the twigs wrapped around!


Interesting textures.


Classic.


The color scheme really catches your eye in this one.


Daring!


Cotton? Love it.


I couldn't forget the poppies, because they're my favorite flower (:
