*** Vases ***
Small, uniquely designed vases would not only look great at the table by each guest setting but are fun for guests to take home and use again and again. Fill with real or silk flowers or how about a lollipop bouquet! Then attach a ribbon and a gift tag and this fun craft can be used as a place card setting too!

*** Dishes & Plates ***
With so many unique shapes and designs including decorative dishes or plates at your guests setting would be perfect for any style wedding. Fill with candies or candles to add color and style, and pair with coordinating colored napkins for the ultimate place setting.

*** Place Card Holders ***
Frames and holders are great for the wedding day to direct guests to their seats. The best part is when the guests take them home they can be used to hold recipe cards or photos!

*** Stickers, Tags & Charms ***
Down to the final touches, it is the little things that make it count, right? Adding a sticker, tag or charm to each favor box, bag or ribbon can tie in your entire wedding theme in one tiny detail.

Great DIY for New Year's : Silver Glitter Ornaments

I just love this diy ornament from Aleah of Valley & Co. It's perfect for the holiday season - including New Year's Eve and New Year's Day festivities. It's a silver glitter ornament - but of course you can use glitter in any color to match your event's decor. The full diy can be found here. The only supplies needed are glass ornament balls {but if you're making these will children, you can always use the shatterproof ornaments as well}, glue, large grade silver glitter, a brush and ribbon. PS: Don't you just love Aleah pearl cluster ring and bracelet?

Best Holiday DIY : a budget friendly centerpiece with ornaments

I just love this idea that I created for our dining room table. I took an existing square glass vase I already had and purchased 2 packages of ornaments from the $1 store {1 set or red, 1 set of gold}. I then mixed them together in the vase and voilá - and instant eye-catching display!!! This would also look amazing along a mantle with multiple vases and even as a centerpiece for holiday weddings. You could even add in some of the fun curly glittered sticks to add height or some faux snow in the bottom portion of the glass vase. And, of course there are many color schemes you can use with the ornaments, I just happen to have a thing for red and gold this year :)

Ornament sets and color combinations you might like: gold/chocolate,
red/white, multicolor, gold, blue/silver, red/green, red, red/gold, silver

A Quick and Easy Halloween Wreath DIY

Happy Halloween. I just had to share this fun and quick DIY I created over the weekend. And, it was created for just a little over $10. I had found the most amazing sparkly and feathery material on clearance at Joann's. Since it wasn't quite the total length I had planned on getting, the sales clerk reduced the price and gave it to me for 50 cents a yard. A total bargain.

I simply started with the styrofoam wreath form and found a roll of different patterned material that had the perfect floral orange for Halloween. I used 2 of the fabric strips and kept wrapping tightly around and secured with pins. I had a bit of extra space where the material didn't quite meet - so I used that area to create a fabric hanger using a different fabric strip. I then wrapped the black fabric around leaving space for the orange to show thru. And, voilá - I have a fun little wreath to greet the neighbors with this afternoon. And, I even have more material in a pretty brown and more in a nice spring shade of blue. Just enough to make more wreaths for the other seasons :)
