For my Mexican Fiesta this year (photos and recipes coming next week, so be sure to subscribe here not to miss a thing ! ), I decided to make some flower crowns to adorn our party outfits! Flower crowns are such a fun party activity craft to make with your girlfriends for any event! Think bridal showers, spring celebrations, weddings, or come to think of it; a darling Mother's day craft too! So we're bang on trend, right?! 😋 Check out the easy DIY steps below.

Did you see the floral Easter brunch we shared last week? ( click here to see the photos ). Well, this Brazilian carrot bundt cake has become a sort of tradition in our home at Easter. Not only because of it's so tasty with its creamy chocolate ganache and fun, bright orange color, but because it's also super simple to make. And mainly, because it's a cake recipe passed down from my mom! 😊
Easter is 'round the corner and as promised in my last post , today' I'll be sharing a delicious, savory cake recipe that's perfect for your brunch! This is not a novel idea. My mom has been making savory cakes for years, with chicken, Spring vegetables, tuna etc. But this smoked salmon version is perfect for Easter brunch, don't you think?!
This year for Easter, we styled a super pretty floral brunch that's fresh and colorful, but also easy to put together. And you know how much we all love "easy" 'round here! 😉 Hope you love the creative ideas as much as I do, and feel inspired to inject a little floral action into your own Easter or Spring celebrations! PS - DIYs and brunch recipes coming in the next few days!
Saint Patrick's day is in three days, and if you're looking for quick and easy table decor ideas or last minute decorations, than this post is for you! 😉 Did you see the pretty rainbow balloon arch we shared last week? Well, this DIY is a spin off, since we used the same technique to make a garland that you can use to decorate walls or as a table runner! We also made a quick video to help explain how we achieve this look with a simple party trick using regular balloons!
In my book pink goes with pretty much anything ;) But is particularly pretty, coupled with bright yellow for a seasonal garden party inspired by flowers and butterflies ! I'm also SO over those big, elaborate dessert tables we used to style some years ago. And as much I loved doing them, I think kids birthday parties don't need to be OTT to be charming. A few touches of DIY decor is all I tend to go for these days, and this darling inspiration board is proof that less is more!
Mother's Day is on Sunday, and if you're looking for last minute ideas to dress your table, then this DIY is for you! Not only it's super simple to make and dresses up any plain table instantly, but it also uses materials you probably have around the house. AND it double as a pretty gift for mom! ;)
Come Spring we find ourselves eating more and more outside, like for the fiesta party we shared last week. And there's nothing I like best than evening meals in the patio, surrounded by flickering candles to set the mood! Bonus points if your candles look mega original and smell subtly fruity! ;)
Spring's in full bloom, true. But still can't avoid those April showers, so we might as well celebrate them. Because if nothing else, that's when we're more likely to see a pretty rainbow! ;) And who doesn't love rainbows?! The colors are an instant pick me up, and perfect for injecting a little cheer into our seasonal birthdays, baby showers or any other celebration this time of year!
Mildly entertaining true story: I planned to shoot this Cherry Blossom Cocktail recipe with the beautiful cherry flowers we have in our cherry trees. But when it came to the shoot day, the blossom were all washed out by the rain! Shock horror! But I soon spotted that our peach trees were in fact blossoming (and looked pretty similar to the cherry ones..) and so decided to Google it, and lo and behold; it turns out they are just as edible as cherry blossom. Phew!
