It's all good! {Grilling Inspired Table}

Sharing with you a simple dessert table I made for the hubby for Father's Day this past weekend. 

I've been wanting to work with this natural color combined with red and already had the runner and the burlap ribbon that went into making the candle holders.  The sign with the "It's all good" saying it's from a gift we gave him a few years back as its kind of an inside joke....those make the best memories!

I thought grilling tools mounted on a canvas background would be perfect for his small table as it's what he enjoys (and what we had for dinner!) but being that I was not going to find some cute enough tools I decided to purchase inexpensive ones and spray paint them.  I've been inspired by my friend Jenny at Crossing the Bugger-Dixon Line to spray paint lately....did it with my outdoor furniture too!

The desserts were all items he enjoys and consisted of some Cakey Chocolate Chip Cookies I made for him, Cheesecake flavored white chocolate mustache pops one of our daughters made, Cream Cheese Brownies from our local bakery: Rita's and his favorite on Father's Day....maple bacon cupcakes from Magpies in Knoxville.

Perfect colors for a man's table, simple on decoration and just the right amount of desserts....with a statement saying!



Meet our Judges ~ Kori Clark of Paper & Pigtails

Meet the sweet Kori of Paper & Pigtails.

She is not only one of our fabulous judges but also a prize sponsor. For the winner of our contest, there is a $45 value credit to her shop for a Printable Party Set from one of her really cute collections on the shop.

About Kori:

"My name is Kori and I live in sunny Florida where I share my home with my sweet husband, two excited toddlers, and two large dogs who shed a bit too much. My computer is my life line and I have been using it to illustrate original graphics for over 10 years.  It was love at first digital illustration, and I graduated in digital arts. Since that time I have worked corporately and then had the opportunity to stay home and try to make this a full time gig, with freelance work. In spring of 2010 I launched Paper & Pigtails to concentrate on party designs!"

Kori's Work:

I love her work, I can relate to a lot of the colors and the themes that Kori uses and I'm lucky to have had Kori worked on some custom party supplies for me using my blog's logo to create party circles and a beautiful banner.  Kori also created our Free Father's Day Printable Circles.

Her work has been featured on Phyllis Hoffman Celebrate Magazine {which you can find here and here } and HGTV.com among others.
