Rustic Modern Pink Quinceañero Inspiration

I'm super excited to be planning my second daughter's 15th birthday as we say in my puertorican culture, Quinceañero.  Melanie's birthday is in the winter months and we're looking forward to celebrating next Summer with family and friends in Tennessee.

This inspiration of course is perfect for any Quinceañera, Sweet 16 or Bride!  Looking forward to mixing in rustic wood and country looks with glittery, shiny and modern accents.  I think is sugar and spice and everything nice!

Check out our blue butterflies inspired Quinceañero for our first daughter Tiana; in Harmony, Florida and also here on the blog. Stay tuned for other Quince celebrations posts including how we asked her damas (maids) to her court of honor!

Magnolias and Bees Inspiration

I'm letting you in on a little secret I'm working on...

I bought a fabric from Jo-Ann Fabric that inspired me for an entire display of sweets. I'm making my flowers be Magnolias and working with bees keeping away from the traditional yellow because that's one of the things I enjoy doing the most.  I'll have the pleasure of working as a contributor for Polka Dot Balloon Magazine so you'll have to wait and check out the Summer issue for more! 

Looking forward to working with these vendors and friends: Pamela Smerker Designs,

note: although the fabric links to Jo-Ann for credit, the photo is my own take and I could not find the fabric online. I purchased it at one of their stores.
