Red and tan bridal shower

 This red and tan bridal shower was so elegant with the addition of the sterling silver pieces!
 This gorgeous arrangement was the focal point of the table, standing extremely tall in the center of the table!
 Red punch and raspberry lime fruit infused water were both delightful!
 

 This was a morning shower so a brunch menu was served including fruit tartlets, lemon cookies, breakfast casseroles, cinnamon rolls and a fresh fruit tower.




Brown and blue airplane cake

 I made this cake for a sweet girl who's sister was having a baby shower...the theme was airplanes (obviously)!  I think it turned out so cute!

The airplane topper on the cake was made of fondant and featured a paper banner welcoming the baby!

Peacock birthday cake and cupcakes

 This was a 17th birthday cake for a special girl...she told her mom that all she wanted was a peacock cake!  It even made it to Facebook! LOL


I made some extra cupcakes just to make sure she had enough for her family and friends!

Cute as a button 1st birthday party

 This is the tablescape for a sweet little one year old's CUTE AS A BUTTON birthday party!  It was extremely windy that day and our original site for the table was getting blown away!
 Her mom made this super cute button "K" picture for her room.  Above I made button garland out of colored paper plates!


 This banner was suppose to hung up for display (also made by her mother) but we decided to attach it to the table with glue dots due to the wind!

Her "Cute as a Button" 1st birthday cake I made with fondant buttons! ** my cakes ususally look better than this but it was over 100 degrees out by the pool party that day...so it quickly began to melt! :(  Sorry Miss Kendall!

This was her smash cake which she showed no hesitation to dive into!  She seemed to really enjoy it!

Colorful owl baby shower

 This was a baby shower for a sweet girl who had the cutest baby bedding...we based our color scheme on it!  Plus, she was going to add some owls into her decor so I gave a little touch of owls to the tablescape.

 The cutest diaper cake done by the hostess...she added the cute little owls and I made a little hairbow for the baby with the baby's initial.
 This was a morning shower so we went with a brunch style menu: Lemon blueberry muffins...
Mini lemon cookies ( a little something sweet)...

 Strawberry banana muffins....
 
and strawbery yogurt parfaits!
 Here are the little owls I added to the tablescape...soooo cute!
 

Cubs sport banquet

 

Our Sports Banquet equipment display!






Entry table for the sports banquet.


 Awards table with floating balloon letters!
My first time to make one of these...I wasn't sure how to do it but figured it out!  We had one for every sport scattered around the room!  I must say..they looked really cool!

Dessert table

Close up of the hand decorated cookies done by athlete moms!  They were amazing!




A Coral bridal shower

 This was a bridal shower for the springtime.  The only color they gave me to work with was coral.  As I was researching, I quickly began to see that a vintage chic look was what I was going to use!


Lots of yummy food was provided by fabulous bakers from the community!
 Gorgeous antique ivory hydrangeas and a single coral gerber daisy highlighted the tablescape.
 The beverage station offered tea punch to the guests for refreshment!  Really yummy flavor!



Guests were greeted at the front door by hand painted antiqued wooden letters hung from coral organza ribbon.
