Talk-To-Me Tuesday: {Orange and Grey} Baby Shower

This past weekend, I hosted a baby shower for a very special mama; my best friend, Andrea.

The menu was delicious, a baby shower brunch fit for a queen, complete with {virgin} mimosa's and baked brie! The decor, all handmade by me, with such a simple colour palatte and theme, it all came together beautifully!


First, the food. Guests dined on...

• Crescents with Peach Preserves
• Warm, homemade Peach Crisp
• Brown Sugar Pecan Baked Brie (to.die.for)
• Shortbread cookies
• Honey Whole Wheat homemade Rolls with butter
• Vanilla Cake Pops, shaped like Giraffe's!
  

Cake Pops handmade, and oh so delicious, from Sweet Cheeks

To drink...Mimosa's and Virgin Mimosa's (yum!), complete with super cute B...is for Baby straws





A balloon wreath in vanilla, white and red with a charcoal grey Baby sign to welcome the guests



Fresh cut hydrangeas with orange and grey striped pinwheels...some in vintage Milk Glass pitchers, others in tall, glass vases



Instead of games, we had a Design Your Own Baby Bib station...10 bibs in all, and each one crazy creative!



Guests took home Vanilla-Peach Marshmallow Pops from Kimberly's Kitchen

Today, I'm linking up this pretty, chic and elegant Baby Shower with Tip Junkie! Super fun and fresh blog, incredibly creative and beautifully written!

Y3W Friday: All About Candy

Happy Friday! You made it, and I have a sweet treat for you for hanging in there!

My week has been All About Candy







I've recently teamed up with Candy Couture Events, and our first event together (the Sunshine Foundation Golf Tournament). It was an absolute blast from set up to running the CCEvents girls back to the proshop, to getting people's feedback and networking!

Looking forward to many more shows and events together!

What's Next Wednesday: Mini Candy Cups

Happy Wednesday!! Again, blogging a bit early as we have a busy day of nurse visits and Walk of Hope appointments tomorrow!

So...What's Next?

How about some Mini Candy Cups? These ones are going to a Candy Couture Events candy buffet at the Sunshine Foundation Golf Tournament on Thursday!







Yellow and mustardy-orange cups that measure approx. 3.5" (cup circumference and length). These ones have the word "Sunshine" handstamped in acid free black ink, strung on bright orange cotton cord, then embellished with graphite coloured glass seed beads.

I think that they are just absolutely adorable! I'm going to come up with two more sizes, a Small Candy Cup and Medium Candy Cone, to suit every candy and dessert buffet need!

Mini Cups are sold in sets of 4 for $6.99!

Bulk orders are eligible for a discount, so drop me a line about your upcoming event!

Y3W Friday: Candy, Candy, Candy

It's been a while, but I have a very sweet excuse as to why blogging has taken a backseat this week

My husband and I have a good friend who is running for one of the political parties in our local riding, and this week was his big campaign party where he was acclaimed to have won the nomination for the riding.

Now, I'm not one for politics and I won't get into any personal views here...but I am one for parties as you all know, and I am definitely one for candy buffet's!
