Fall is the perfect season for a woodland themed birthday party, full of cute little forest animals and tasty autumnal treats. So, for our NEW woodland themed printables collection we decided to style a cookies & milk party to celebrate. AND, we're sharing it all on a video below to help give you some cool party ideas and inspiration to re-create the look at home!
Toffee apples take me right back to childhood. I remember walking past the sweet stands selling them at carnivals and country fairs, and I always pestered my mom to buy them. I totally favored these over cotton candy every time! And autumn is the perfect time to make these delicious, crunchy toffee apples at home. Forget bobbing for apples, toffee apples is where it's at! ;) Oh, and did I mention it's super easy too? I love them even more now!
Usually I hate it when summer ends, but this year summer has been so intense, that I really welcomed Fall with open arms! Plus, it's another great opportunity to get back in the kitchen and bake some treats, without fear of putting the oven on.
Balloons have always had a special place in my heart, even before they were "trendy". I can't imagine a party without them. They're inexpensive and add instant color and a structural element to any party scene, what's not to love?! Nowadays, you see the most exquisite creations and arrangement for weddings, birthdays, photo booths...
Sometimes a girl just can't find the right outfit, am I right? Be it for a birthday party, dinner date or Halloween costume...finding that one piece you had in mind to complete your outfit, can sometimes be challenging. This is where knowing how to whip up a quick and easy elasticated party skirt can save the day! And for those of you who are "allergic" to sewing (like me, at times...), fear not! It's a reeeeeally simple tutorial, pinky promise ;)
My favorite part of back to school season is school supplies, by a mile. It's always been the case for me since I was a child. I think it's the smell of new books...and don't even get me started on the cute pens and paper goods! ;) So now with my own kids, I get to indulge in my stationery obsession when they go back to school. But the DIY way, of course!

Okay, so the title of the post is ambiguous. On purpose. You'll see what I mean once you watch the recipe video below ;) For now, let's juts say that we're super excited to watch the opening ceremony of the Rio 2016 Olympic Games today! My mom lives in Rio, and she says the city is already buzzing with excitement and stunning displays to welcome the crowds!
If you follow me on Snapchat or Instagram , you'd have seen how beautiful and lush the lavender I have growing around in the studio garden! Every time I go in there, I HAVE to stop and smells the scents in the air! Just dreamy... It's such a generous plant, and to me, synonymous with summer. So much so that I decided to pair it with peaches and incorporate it in a cocktail recipe that celebrates the best this season has to offer!
If you're on Instagram you probably would have seen that drip cakes are taking over the cake world right now. Well, ever since I've set eyes on them, I've been itching to bake one! So for our flamingo pool party (see photos here) , I decided to get baking. It turns out, not only drip cakes are not that difficult to make and taste super yum, but they will totally steal the show on any desserts table! :)
