Have you been following my Bar Cart series? I started it this year kicking it off with New Year's and Mardi Gras. But now it's time to think about St. Patrick's Day! We always celebrate St. Patrick's Day with a nice family dinner of Corned Beef and Cabbage along with a small spread of sweeties. So you can bet I'll be rolling my bar cart out this year!

Black and Gold Halloween Party Ideas
Are you counting down to Halloween? I sure am! Yesterday I shared the first of many mini Halloween parties I'm planning with you and today I'm "glamming" it up with a spiffy Black and Gold Halloween Party! As I mentioned in yesterday's post (see my Black and White Skull Halloween Party for the details), I have a lot of Halloween decor, which somehow keeps growing! In addition to my weekly lunch dates with the hubby to HomeGoods, we also walk next door to Hobby Lobby. Not sure if you have noticed, but Gold is everywhere, which I love! So I was excited to see some fun Gold Halloween decor at Hobby Lobby to add to my collection. First of all, this Pumpkin! I actually displayed the back of it because the front reads "Happy Harvest" which I will be using for ... [Read More]

New Year’s Eve Dessert Table
New Year's Eve Dessert Table Happy Thursday! I'm excited to share with you some Silver and Gold New Year's Eve party inspiration! If you saw my Gold & Silver Christmas dessert table, you will know that I love this color combination! So much that I decided to use the same pallette for a NYE dessert table. Like most of my parties, it's filled with DIY ideas that you can incorporate into any theme year-round. Since I wanted to create a small dessert table without cake or my usual cupcakes, I added white roses to this lovely Ivory and silver glitter mason jar made by Always the Occasion as my centerpiece. For sweets, I displayed individual sized chocolate mousse cups, chocolate covered oreos and glittery cake pops. As well as vanilla pudding cups (topped with whipped cream ... [Read More]
