Sneak peek....


This past weekend was my 31st birthday. Not a huge milestone like turning 30 but it really makes me wonder where the last year went! I celebrated the 1st anniversary of my 30th birthday and official adulthood with a dinner party. As I was asked to put together a table top design for Emily at Once Wed I decided I would not only design the table top but use it as well! Why waste it.
So on my birthday I worked my ass off! But it was so fun. It became a holiday kitschy party with a lot of silliness! my husband and I dressed up to fit the winter, folky, rustic, kitschy, holiday, wedding theme. As I don't want to spoil anything for Emily's post I will only post one picture from the night I took of my husband along side on of the boutonnieres I made. Isn't he so cute in his red chucks! Love it. I can't wait to post the rest.

As I just went to her blog to see the newest table top trend by Darling Dexter I about threw up! Her design is so beautiful it made me not want to send my pics to emily. But then I realized mine is just different. Right? that's what it is all about. Differences in designs...But it sure is amazing! My table top is definitely the most silly of all so far... I can't control my silliness when designing. I need to work on my sophistication.... This is probably why my mom still calls me "little girl"

Hope when she posts it, it will put a smile to everyones face. Now I need to work on a design that causes a gasp of beauty instead of a laugh of delight... this will be a challenge....
