DIY Balloon & Fronds Tropical Party Centerpiece

DIY Balloon & Fronds Tropical Party Centerpiece

One of my favorite elements of the  Party Like Pineapple birthday table was for sure, the balloon and fronds centerpiece! Originally, I wanted to hang a balloons garland above the dessert and drinks station, but when I was making it on the dining table, I realized it would make a fab tropical centerpiece ! And so a new idea was born!

Summer's here and despite all the uncertainties, life goes on. And so do celebrations! OK, granted.

We just have to adapt a little...and we're okay with that! So, today I bring you a super simple, low-key jungle themed party table with some fun and easy DIY decorations that still look and feel special, for whatever occasion or celebration you may be hosting this season!

Last year, I created a bunch of lemon themed posts here for the blog , but did not have time to style a tablescape.

When you have kids in tow, Valentine's Day festivities take on a whole new meaning (I think parents reading this will nod at this point), and the phrase three's a crowd springs to mind? :) Because of that fact, I've often shared family-friendly Valentine's Day party ideas, recipes and crafts here on the blog.  But this year, since my kiddos are a little older; I fancy a little dinner date with my husband!

January just makes me want get cozy and warm. And for me, there's no better way to celebrate any occasion in winter than with a big bowl of steaming hot soup!

Spring Cleaning with First Alert

Spring Cleaning with First Alert

Thank you First Alert for sponsoring this post. Spring is nearly upon us and I couldn’t wait to finally transition the decor in my dining room for the season. I do love the cozy winter vibes, but I must admit that I miss my flower touches over the winter months! The weather is still cold but I’m already longing for warmer days and so I decided to do a little spring cleaning and dress up a pretty table to transition us from winter to early spring with effortless ease, hence this farmhouse tablescape; which would be perfect for a family Sunday lunch or celebration at home!

Even though the temps are still pretty hot where I live, Fall is officially here! Inspired by all the pretty autumnal colors around my garden and the local French countryside, I styled a blush tablescape that would be perfect for any celebration you may be hosting this season. Or simply to dress a pretty table for brunch! Since some of us are still homeschooling or working from home, I find that adding little touches of seasonal décor and comfort, not only serve to "dress up" the space we're living in, but also helps to cheer things up a bit!

A Seaside Inspired Tablescape and 3 BBQ Recipes

A Seaside Inspired Tablescape and 3 BBQ Recipes

Summer rhymes with BBQ and eating outdoors, so we've been cooking most of our evening meals on the BBQ this summer. It's a bliss not to have the oven on inside the house, and somehow, food just tastes so much better al-fresco, don't you think? So a few weeks ago, we decide on a baked version of the classic shrimp boil. But because it's cooked on a sheet pan on the barbecue...we called it BBQ shrimp.
