Cranberry Vodka Christmas Punch Recipe
For my plaid tartan Christmas party , I set up a festive holiday bar, complete with this delicious Cranberry Vodka Christmas punch! This punch is such a quick and easy holiday drink to make, and you can totally omit the vodka, and let guests spike their own drinks if desired just before serving!
A Modern Plaid Tartan Christmas Table
For Christmases past, I've done modern monochromatic , trendy millennial and golden chic for my table decorations. So this year, I wanted to create something a little more traditional, and was inspired by tartan or plaid for my table design. Red is my favorite color, and I used it as a predominant shade in my holiday tablescape, alongside touches of green and gold for sparkle and a little modernity! Keep reading to see how you can re-create this look at home for the holidays!
No-Bake Pumpkin Spice Parfaits Recipe
Thanksgiving is 'round the corner, and if you need a quick, easy and above all, no-bake dessert recipe; then this post is for you! 😉 As a lover of all things pumpkin and pumpkin spice, I was looking for tasty ways to use up the tons of pumpkins we have in the house this time of year... So I came up with these tasty parfaits that are slightly inspired by my pumpkin Tiramisu recipe, which I shared a few years ago here.
DIY Felt Flower Wreath for Fall
Admittedly, I don't decorate much for fall. Being a blogger, come September, my mind is already thinking to Christmas (crazy, I know), so fall decor per se consists of a few autumn-scented candles dotted around the house. That's it! This year though, I wanted to up my fall decor game with a pretty wreath or two, which are also perfect for decorating any space in the home for Thanksgiving!

For my Dia de Los Muertos dinner part , I made delicious Mexican Almond Horchata to serve to my guests alongside our fun sugar skull cookies (recipe for the cookies here). Horchata is a delicious, non-alcoholic drink that is perfect for the whole family and ideal for fall entertaining! It's traditionally served cold over ice, but my kids love it as a warm drink on cold days!
Jack-O'-Lantern Halloween Cookie Cake
My obsession with these cookie cakes started this summer when I made my very first cookie cake in the shape of a pineapple . Since then, I've been dreaming up other fun shapes to create, hence today's Jack-O'-Lantern inspired Halloween cookie cake! This cookie cake is SO easy to make and combines the best of both cookie and cake worlds - buttery shortbread cookies, sandwiched together with chocolate cream cheese frosting, topped with ridiculous amounts of candy. Well, it is Halloween after all! 🎃🍬👻
Did you see my Day of The Dead dinner party tablescape I shared last week? For the occasion, I made these super fun but oh-so easy sugar skull cookies, inspired by our NEW Dia de Los Muertos printable decorations and invitations . I LOVED the process so much, and even my daughter joined in the decorating fun! 😊
Day of The Dead Dinner Party Ideas
Even since my daughter and I watched the Disney Pixar film Coco , I've been dying to style a Dia de Los Muertos or Day of The Dead dinner party! Inspired by the film, I set off to create a colorful and vibrant tablescape, and to design some themed Dia de Los Muertos party printable invitations and matching printable decor kit for the occasion!
A Super Easy Two-Tier Halloween Cake
Hey friends, as you can probably tell, Halloween is in full swing here on the blog. And I'm so excited to bring you yet another fun idea to help inspire your celebrations! This Halloween cake looks quite impressive, right?! But it's a cinch to decorate and even the kids can help! 😉 I used mainly sugar paste and cookie cutters to help me decorate it. So if I can, you can too!
