I love sending snail mail, especially when it is adorned with special stickers and stamps. Receiving a package in the mail jumps up 10,000 more points when it is pretty to look at, so I am loving all over these state address stamps. And before you scoff at the asking price, know that they are each hand-lettered. Delicious.
It had been too long since I hosted a girls only crafting party, so I felt the need to remedy that. This past weekend, I invited some girls over to make our own headbands! We had a blast working from this template, and added some much needed wine and gossip to the mix. Best part? I was able to add some fun details with items I had laying around the house!
My favorite party dino that I painted years back. And an amazing graphic I had the hubs make.
This weekend we hosted a pool party for my beautiful mother-in-law’s birthday. We slapped the photo booth back in action, and ordered some absolutely delicious Cuban food. What I loved the most was spending some relaxed family time in our house. It made me really excited to host some more family events once the holidays roll around later this year.
My big boy, Brad-Pitt, also celebrated a birthday this past weekend. He has given us 6 years of nothing but happiness and love. He really is the best dog anyone could ask for, and I feel so lucky to have him in my life. Mommy loves you, monster!
I hope you all have a great week!
I kind of pride myself on planning some pretty fun parties. Although that means I feel some serious pressure during the planning phase, there really is nothing like the high of throwing a successful fiesta. And our Memorial Day pool party was nothing short of amazing, partly due to the fun photo booth we put together in our entry way. It was a super simple project: 2 yards of IKEA fabric, duct tape and lots of handmade props combined with dollar bin finds. Without further ado, here are some of my favorite shots.
