I love pink and have already styled a pink and copper Christmas tablescape a few years ago ( you can see it here ). But since the pink, plum and gold color combination seems to be very trendy this year, I could not resist! So this year I opted for a palette of blush pink mixed in with burgundy or plum tones and a sprinkling of gold. Because it ain't Christmas without a little bit of bling, am I right?! 💁‍♀️ Naturally, I called it my "Sugar Plum" Christmas tablescape! Check out all the easy styling ideas and 4 DIY decorations below in my how-to video!

The Holiday season is here, and I find myself mentally salivating over all the  dazzling party food ideas and quick recipes I can serve for my end-of-year parties. Let's just say I'm a tad obsessed with canapés and appetizers this time of year. It's sort of a personal challenge to try to find THE perfect Holiday recipe that ticks all the boxes (quick, easy, tasty, pretty...), and become my new go-to party food favorite!

Happy New Year, party friends! We're kicking off 2018 here on the blog with a crafty post. There's no better way, #amiright?! And this DIY craft is quite a special one, as it was entirely made by my mini me, who is turning out to be quite the mini-crafter! (I think I have a future blogger on my hands haha) 😍

This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of Pillsbury™. The opinions and text are all mine. Fall is here. And we all know fall is synonymous with wonderful produce, like pumpkins.  And in turn, you can't bake anything with pumpkins without pumpkin spice, right?!  From cakes to lattes, to puddings and cupcakes (my favs!), this seasonal spice mix is everywhere!

This is year I decided to re-design our original Easter Bunny printable  with pastel color scheme: Pastel pinks, yellow, blue and green. I also added a few more cute printables in there like the paper bows, adorable Easter Bunny Cupcake Wrappers in four colors,   cute printable bag toppers , brand new invitations and over 18 pages of printables to help style a beautiful Easter Party with ease and without breaking the bank! ;) Luckily the weather co-operated enough on the weekend for me to bring the whole shoot outdoors in the garden...

I'm not usually a huge fan of football (soccer) but something about the World Cup that just makes me wanna watch, party and cheer. We've always held world cup match watching celebrations in our family since I was a child, so I guess it's tradition now. Especially since this year it's been held in Brazil!! Talk about fun overload, right?! :) So all this week I'll be sharing some creative party ideas inspired by the beautiful game, and its   world cup host country!! So you can expect a touch of samba, a pinch of folia and lots of fun on the 'menu'! ;)

Hey friends, Easter is 'round the corner and I've decided to share with you one of my favorite recipes EVER - Hot cross buns !!  These delicious, lightly spiced sweet bread rolls make for the perfect Easter breakfast, lunch or treat and are quite simple to make too!  I absolutely love eating hot cross buns any time of day though, and this year I tried a new recipe that I just had to share it with you guys, since they turned out SO good!

Today I'm sharing the steps how I made that Elsa doll call, from the Frozen inspired birthday party I shared last week. These types of doll cakes are nothing new.

We have put together some easy but stylish tips, tricks and recipes for a Christmas Holidays Cocktail & Appetizers Party that will help you look like the hostess with the mostess, without breaking a sweat! 😉

My Mother's Day Color POP tablescape was inspired by pompoms.  And I can tell you we pompom-ed the heck out of everything. And I mean, E-V-E-R-Y-T-H-I-N-G. Turns out pompoms are really versatile.  Think napkin rings, cute gift and favor packaging embellishments, headbands, jewelry...and even fridge magnets ! I LOVE the idea of decorative place-setting decor that also double-duties as a practical favor!

My daughter loves pink, and I love red. So this year, I decided to go 100% down the girly route for our Valentine's Day styled shoot!  I adored designing our NEW  Valentine's Day printables , and working with some of the party supplies we carry in the shop , like those mini gumball machines, which I am just in love with! ♥  And if you follow me on Instagram , you'd have seen that being surrounded by all that candy is my idea of a heaven! Check out all the photos and styling ideas below. Warning: Glitter and girly sweetness featured heavily (and some crazy photo-bomber...).

American Football is not no longer a sporting event that's celebrated in the US alone. The love of the game and the NFL Super Bowl has taken over the globe, and I'm happy to see so many bars where you can now watch the Super Bowl in London, Paris and all over Europe! So a Super Bowl themed party was really a necessity 'round here.  Even, if like me; you're in it just for the food & the beer ;)

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!

Being from Italian descent, I grew up with polenta. And one of my fave dishes is creamy polenta with Bolognese sauce and generous sprinkles of Parmesan on top. SO yum!! So naturally, when thinking up delicious appetizers for our end of year parties , I turn to my Italian roots. And polenta usually figures in some shape or form, in the array of bite-size delights I serve time and time again... It's like bringing a little bit of Italy to my table :)

Hey guys! Today I bring you a fun video recipe that will be perfect for the start of NFL season coming up in September! I'm so excited that this year we're really pumping out cool videos for Bird's Party YouTube channel , and if you don't wanna miss a party beat, then I suggest you subscribe stat ;)
