Coral and Red Birthday Celebration {A Low Country Boil}

 

 

 I celebrated my 39th Birthday this past weekend and I'd like to share some of the images with you as I am just too excited of how everything came together!

I wanted a Low Country Boil and Peach Desserts. Brittany at Edible Details helped me announce the day's festivities and menu with the cutest low country boil fondant topper.

 

 

 

Low Country Boil

 

 The hubby did such a wonderful job with our first low country boil dinner and made my wishes come true by helping me set up a very cool and casual dinner table in our backyard.

My friend Wendy Symons made my day with a beautiful pumpkin cake because it's obvious I love Fall! Although I went a little back to Summer with the menu... I loved her cake and the amount of time and details she put into it. It was gorgeous and delicious too!
 

 

 On the peach desserts I had peach bourbon cupcakes which I created inspired on these. But let's face it, I am not a baker and I made mine with a yellow cake mix, fresh pureed peaches and 1 1/2 tablespoons of honey bourbon. That's it! Toppers also by the wonderful Edible Details.

 

 

 The peach cookies inspired on cookies by Bake at 350 are by KJ Cookies and I absolutely love how they turned out!! So peachy cute!

 

 

Fun, fun, fun! Cheerfully excited to kick off another great year!

 

 

 

 



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!
