You Are NEVER to Young to be a GLAM Girl: Madi turns 8!

Ok Y'all, this was just too much fun! Between having a super client and a great theme, this Glam Girl party was a pleasure to put on! From every color of pink you can imagine, to high heel shoes and tutus, turning eight has never looked so good!

This party was held in a hotel room so please ignore the black chair, picture, and AC unit! :) This is a picture of the food table.  Love the upside down balloons, the personalized flags, pink lemonade dispenser, and all the different shades of pink.

Here is a close-up on some of the decor. I used wine glasses filled with pink gemstones, beads, and ring pops for this display. You can also see the table cloth and a better picture of the adorable flags!

This pink purse was one of my favorite props. Every glam girl loves purses and shoes! I had that in mind when I included this candy filled purse and designed the high heel-shoe favors. The favors were made by vendor in North Georgia. They were hot pink, cardboard high heel shoes filled with candy. I also designed I necklace to go with the shoe. They were too cute! None of the pictures did them justice since they were all wrapped up... guess you will have to hire me if you want to see one! ;)

Here I am after the hard work was completed! Giving you all my signature 'W' :). 

I hope the girls loved the party as much as I did. What is not to love about all pink, glamour, and your own dress-up booth I made in the corner?! 

My next event is scheduled to be pretty glamorous as well! It is sure to be full of bright patterns and holiday cheer. I'll keep you posted on that.

Until then,

All Hallows Eve

Halloween is a great excuse to plan a party. From the costumes to the colors, I had a blast putting together this bash!

First things first! I have said it before and I will say it again. Your invite sets the mood! Thats why I went with a funky, bat inspired invite. The wording is catchy and fun. The guest knew what to expect before they even arrived!







Working in a small space? No problem! Streamers can work dreams for decor. I strung them up from four corners and used the extra to cover a door. I also added a decorated circle to tie it all together. Lighting is key in a small space. Make sure to turn on your lamps!

Space may also be limited in your entryway. I added this funky fabric filled with colorful spiders to greet the guest as they came in!

This table display was a crowd pleaser! My main colors were lime green, purple, and black with a touch of orange. I wanted to steer clear of the normal orange and black. I used a sheer fabric to tie all the colors together. I kept my serving piece to a sold white with black accents. I loved using a Edgar Allan Poe book to give the cake stand a little more height. It went perfect for Halloween.

Here is a close-up of the food. We made name tags from vellum and scrapbook paper and gave all the foods a Halloween name. The menu was as follows from right to left:

"Spider Boo"- inside a cute spider dish was a chocolate Oreo cheese ball. Animal crackers and

nilla wafer for dipping.

"Graveyard dip"- a yummy chicken dip with tortillas and crackers.

"Creepy Caramel Apples"- apples made into perfect bite-sized circles drizzled with caramel (and some extra to dip in on the side!)

"Monster Cake"- the star of the show! A vanilla cake with lime green frosting covered with a hot fudge glaze and topped with googley eyes.

"Candy Cocktails"- simple martini glasses filled with Halloween candy

"Zombie Eyeballs"- cooked in the crockpot all day meatballs

"Ghostly Pizzas"- pita bread cut into 4s topped with lots of mozzerella and two turkey pepperonis for eyes!

Another hit was the "Swamp Water." If I told you what was in it, I would have to kill you! But, I am sure you are dying anyway over how cute this display is! A mason jar drink dispenser inside a birdcage... I did give myself a pat on the back for this one!

This is the drink station! Lined with solo cup monsters and a great carved pumpkin! I used a vase for the flowers before putting them inside the pumpkin so that after the party was over, you can simply pull out the vase and toss the pumpkin out!

pizzas and apples!

Favors for the end of the night filled with a ghost shaped Peep, chocolate bar, and graham crackers.

"Come back next year for S'MORE fun!"

It's not everyday you can get away with decorating a party with spiders, ghosts, and black/orange color combos, but on this day of the year it is fun to pull out all the stops and enjoy a nice glass of Swmp Water with your friends.

Happy Halloween Y'all!
