I follow The Finer Things blog from Fine Stationary and I had I requested an inspiration board for my party.
Here are a few things that I plan to do:
Invitations – I wanted to take the time to do handwritten notecards, but I threw that idea completely out the window. I made my own invites using a monogram that I ordered from Pink Design Events.
Tablescape – Since this will be a dessert buffet I am think of using a table layout very similar to something that Amy Atlas has done. My mother let me borrow her long white floor length tablecloth and I will be using my own clear platters and glass cake plates. I am thinking of using red flowers as suggested on the inspiration board.
I love her idea of the carnation wreath to put on the door as I wanted to do door monograms, but we will see.
Another suggestion was the white organza headband but my hair doesn’t go so well with headbands – I have a lot of hair. I actually plan to wear big hair that night.
I love the candy buffet, but there will be so many other sweets that I will let that go this time. But I do plan to order white cake bags so that people can take their dessert to go if they wish. However, take out boxes would be cute. We will see.
