Flowers for a Baby Shower

About a month ago I was asked if I could help out with decorations for a baby shower that my friend was throwing. Of course the answer was yes so the ideas started flowing. Nicole is great because she basically said do what ever you want I know it will look great. The one rule was everything had to be pink and brown. The shower was being held at the expecting mothers home so knowing this I wanted to do a variety of different vases.This way, on the day of, you can see which type of vase looks good in different spots since there will be different areas in the house that guests will be socializing. I also did the favors for the guests. I am so not the traditional person when it comes to favor so I suggested she do real flowers in clay pots. This way they last a decently long time. The tag on the favor had two meanings. "Watch me grow" was meant for both the flower and for the baby once she is born. I hope you enjoy the pictures!

80th Birthday Dinner Party

This past Tuesday was my grandfather's 80th birthday! It was a celebration in my family! The whole weekend consisted of festivities for him and the family to be together but on his actual birthday I hosted a dinner party for him. He has always loved cows and tractors, typical country boy. As a younger man he had his own farm tending to his cows and mowing his hay. For the table I wanted to incorporate this so I did a black and white theme and my cousin made the cow cake. He loved the night! Here are the pictures to prove it!

Appetizer to start things off

This is a very easy tablescape. A cloth table allows you to write and decorate it.

Place cards were adorned with cow spots

Overall Table

Loved the cake! It matched his sense of humor!

This was my cousin's goal, to make a cake that had a cow on it! (and the poop just added another touch)
