Pink Tulle Baby Shower

Today we're sharing this adorable pink tulle baby shower.  The mom-to-be's sister hosted a shower in honor of her future niece that featured a palette of baby pink, silver and white.  We designed the custom tulle table skirt that adorned the dessert table.  Guests tables were decorated with a silver runner and a fun balloon centerpiece in a silver glitter vase stuffed with pink tulle.









The glowing mom-to-be was all smiles.



The happy parents!








Guests were invited to sign a pink frame that would later hang on the wall in the baby's nursery.

5 Ways to Create a Beautiful Thanksgiving Dinner



Hi there!  Can you believe it's November already?  And we all know what that means...Thanksgiving! You have planned your menu, sent out invitations and perfected your recipes.  Now you must put it all together and set the atmosphere for a beautiful dinner gathering.  We are here to help by sharing 5 elements to incorporate to make your Thanksgiving dinner a gorgeous experience.

1. COLORS OF FALL - Nothing says fall like pretty shades of brown and orange.  However, other neutral tones can create beautiful autumn decor as well.  Consider greys, beiges or even a palette of all white.



2. BRING IN NATURE - Take your search for fall decor outside.  Pumpkins, pinecones, and branches make lovely centerpieces.



3. FOOD PRESENTATION - Don't stop the decorating at the dinner table.  Set up a food table with matching serveware and a framed menu.  Food should look as good as it tastes!



4. USE YOUR BEST - Thanksgiving is the perfect time to bring out the fine china, pretty candles and sophisticated linen.  



5. DON'T FORGET THE KIDS - Let's face it, children and fine china do not mix!  The solution? Create a separate kid-friendly dining area.  Use cute Thanksgiving-themed paperware, offer a craft and keep the decor simple.  Everyone's happy!


What are your favorite Thanksgiving decor tips?

Happy Turkey Day!

Elegant Wedding on the Water Front - Kristina & Je'Marc


For their March wedding, Kristina and Je'Marc wanted something elegant, regal and romantic.  The downtown Norfolk waterfront provided the perfect setting for their dream wedding.  A beautiful ceremony took place at the Dominion Club where the bride serenaded her groom as she walked down the aisle.  Following the ceremony, guests dined and danced in the grand ballroom, surrounded by hues of metallic gold and marsala with ivory and burgundy florals.

Back to School Blog Series: Gifts Your Child's Teacher Actually Want



It is officially August and for many of us, that means preparing for back to school.  We want to help your students start the year off right.  Here are some awesome gift ideas for your child's teacher they will love!


EXTRA SUPPLIES

With budget and salary cuts, many of today's teachers are limited by the amount of materials and supplies provided by their schools.  As a result, teachers often find themselves purchasing supplies with their personal funds.  Sending extra school supplies for your child's teacher will definitely be appreciated.

CLEANING PRODUCTS

We all know, with kids come germs and messes.  Help keep your child, the other students and their teacher healthy with a stock of cleaning and sanitizing products.
