Hi, it's Jen from Banner Events here. I love Mother's Day!  Not only is it a wonderful day to celebrate with my children, but a beautiful day to celebrate my own sweet mother.  

You've probably guessed it's all about Mother's Day this week on the blog...And today, our contributor Gillian is sharing a super sweet, pretty but also easy to style  Mother's Day desserts table ! Check out her lovely ideas and details below...The bird cage is my fave! ;)

Good morning! I’ve teamed up with The Celebrations Shoppe on a joint linky! What does that mean? That means when you link up an idea on my blog, it shows up on hers too! {woo hoo!}

See More Kentucky Derby Party Ideas here. When scouring the internet for Kentucky Derby Party Ideas , I came across this gorgeous photo of Kate Bosworth in vintage attire, and it ended up dictating the mood of my pin board. Grown-up, sophisticated and exuding  "Kentucky Derby Charm" ;) Check out the fun and fabulous links below, to help you style and celebrate for this fun event...

Hi friends, just stopping by to share a recent party I styled and photographed for our friends at I See Me. The post is up and includes tips on how to throw an enchanting  Fairy Tale Birthday Party that's super easy to pull together!

This giveaway is now closed! My mom inspired my love of parties, baking and cooking. And now every mother's day, I bake her signature cake in her honor - Something I am keen to pass down to my daughter, along with the art of "merry making"! :)

Remember the giant paper roses I made for this shoot ? Well, these area  smaller version of the roses but using crepe paper instead and making them into a beautiful bouquet for Mother's Day (weddings too or any other occasion you fancy!) They are so pretty, long-lasting, and easy to make, and are the perfect gift or craft for kids to get involved in (with a little supervision of course, as there are wire cutters involved!).  My daughter LOVED crafting with me on the weekend; and as a proud mom (not ashamed to say) I just couldn't help myself and took some extra shots of my precious,  pretty in pink baby ♥

Weekend are crazy busy for me as the summer approaches - Between helping my eldest with his school work, catching up on the house chores from the week, and the hoards of summer parties and posts to plan; I seldom have time to sit and just ponder...And this is why if I can catch some spare time, I run straight to Pinterest !!   Yes, it's become my not-so-guilty pleasure of late. I say not-so-guilty because I treat it more like "research"! ;)

This giveaway is now closed! As promised yesterday, we're teaming up with Familiar  to bring you an AMAZING giveaway!! Disclaimer: This giveaway is sponsored by Familiar, a free and private way to share your photos with your family.
