Acorn Placecards

You can find these adorable acorns (wait til you see the mushrooms)
from Fairyfolk on Etsy.
They are $16/set of 6.

Feeling organic?  Use real acorns and real leaves....rustic and just as charming.

I would love to add a little glitter to the edges of these leaves, but who am I kidding...I will end up pointing to the chairs in my house and telling everyone where they need to sit.  LOL!

Halloween Candy Fun..no baking required!

I was searching for cute Halloween treats and looky looky what I found...some of the sweetest treats I have ever seen and better yet, no baking required! So grab some candy and start making these yummy treats! I need a staff like Martha Stewart....how will I have time to make all these before Halloween?  The candy kebobs are fast and easy (be nice)

I will make some cute halloween tags for you to print at home too.  I will design tomorrow and post this weekend!

If you are making the candy kebobs for gifts, grab some pretzels bags from the craft store.  They are tall skinny cello bags and tie with a cute black white polka dot ribbon for a cute treat to hand out to friends or teachers!

okay...couldn't sleep..here is tag.  Post a comment or email me and I will send you pdf so you can print from home.

New Ivy & Piper is Out Now!

One of my favorite online magazines, Ivy & Piper,  just posted it's Celebration Issue for October/November.  It has the most beautiful pictures I have ever seen.  Little old me
was featured in their party section.  I pulled some of my favorite pics to inspire me and then I
created a tablescape literally using things around my house.  If I love these things in my house, why wouldn't I love them on my table at a dinner party?  Click on the link or on the magazine posted on the left side of my blog to see!

I'm NUTS Over These!

Seriously, have you seen anything cuter???  The best part is...no cooking required!
Of course, don't half ass it, cut fall color napkins in the shape of a leaves.  I made a template for the craft impaired to keep things simple. If you would like the pdf so you can print at home, POST A COMMENT and EMAIL ME where to send. You are sure to be a rock star when your kids
try these.  These are great for Breakfast, School/Class Snack, Fall brunch, an Octover/November Baby Shower (Can't wait to meet our little peanut), Bridal Shower (We're nuts about each other, We've "fallen" in love), Teacher Breakfast (Do we drive you nuts?)  It's super easy...here's how to make...

Family Fun

Halloween Decorations!

My favorite time of year...Fall!  The air is crisp, soups for dinner, pumpkin lattes from Starbucks, boots, scarves and my hair doesn't frizz up from the humidity (like Monica on FRIENDS) Being in sunny Florida, it doesn't feel like it yet, but it is suppose to be 85 on Sunday!!  So this weekend, the kids and I are climbing in the attic to find our decorations, going to pumpkin patch for some perfect pumpkins and decorating our house for Halloween...starting with the front porch.  Here are some ideas....

Would this be considered a Missoni Pumpkin?  Some gold
spray paint and a black marker....done!  Sorry ebay sellers,
you can't get these at Target.

New Lonny!

Lonny September October is HERE!  Some great articles.  Check it out...
