D-I-A-P-E-R-S!!!!!!

Recently I have been asked to help with Baby Showers. Diapers Cakes and Diaper Centerpieces are definitely not a NEW concept but I did want to share this very simple Guitar one. I didn't know what to do and there was a very tight budget so I ordered these foam cutouts at *PUNKY Plug* http://www.awesomeevent.com. Then I just added some great colorful letters that said BOYS ROCK!

I was also asked to quickly pull together a Diaper Cake and some centerpieces that would have Peter Rabbit animals placed on top. I added in some Diaper Candy to spread down the table. Enjoy and must importantly don't be afraid to get PUNKY! Change things up and be creative!*PUNKY Plug*...definition: A great local vendor I use a lot or a helpful party planning tip I use!

Sugar and Spice and everything Nice, that is what little GIRLS are made of!

I am tickled PINK that my best friend Natalie is having a little girl...I have one girl and one boy and she has one boy and a girl. So what does that mean, well it means I have a better chance of having Natalie as my IN-LAW...hahhaha! When I started thinking about Natalie's shower I went to *PUNKY Plug:1* http://www.stylemepretty.com/ to get my inspiration. I utilized this website to come up with my INSPIRATION BOARD and really took off from there. I also remembered that awhile back Natalie found these invites that she wanted to recreate on *PUNKY Plug:2* on http://www.etsy.com. They were beautiful Lollipop invites...well needless to say I didn't let her recreate them first and I took on the task myself and added a couple of things. I love it when your craft looks real so I added plastic wrap and I also added some great Candy (Martha Stewart) stickers because this shower is everything "SWEET". Below is a picture of the final product...please bare with me because I am working on getting a camera...this was taken on my phone!

Girls Night or Date Night...this is the place to be!

So the first Monday of every month me and my girlfriends designate a night to each other. It was the best decision we have made in a LONG time...anyways this month it was my darling friend Katie's turn. With Katie you always know that you are in for a treat and most likely going to be doing something you would never think of...well she didn't let me down! I am sure that everyone knows about Artisan Alley, and if you don't look it up, many great things there...Apple Annies, Finders Keepers, CradleCouture...and now a *PUNKY Plug*, PAINTING WITH A TWIST.

I could blog about the process but not needed with a great website: www.paintingwithatwist.com/sanantonio. In a nut shell you show up with your group, bring your own food and drinks, and then PAINT. It was a blast to sit around with my friends and laugh with each other and at each other. What a creative and great way to bring groups together. Melissa you have a great thing going and KATIE...love you and all of your creativeness! Check out my PEACOCK! She is a beauty!
