Paperless Post Invitations
I was recently contacted by Paperless Post to try their invitations, but before I go into it, let me give you a little of my background. I’ve been an invitation snob for as long as I can remember. Many moons ago, I remember going into The Stationary Square in Hyde Park Village and being mesmerized by all of their paper invitations. The invitations would make me want to have parties just to have an excuse to buy them. Once I...
Lilly Pulitzer Inspired Pool Party
I’ve wanted to do a cabana pool party with Lilly Pulitzer decor for as long as I can remember. My older daughter’s birthday is in November so that theme never worked out for her but the little one has a June birthday. I was seeing traditional pink and green cabana decor from the time she popped out! Knowing this party would eventually happen, I began stockpiling random decor over the years whenever I found things on super...
4th of July with Dixie Southern Vodka
We had a little added bonus to our traditional family pool day/crab boil to celebrate the 4th of July this year.

Vodka is our preferred drink in general but Dixie Southern Vodka is a craft vodka made in Charleston, SC, where my father’s family is from. I love...
Coastal Tablescape for Father’s Day
In case you’ve missed it, I’m a little obsessive when it comes to coastal decor. I get all sorts of giddy when I see my kind of coastal stuff, as evidenced by my favorite Pinterest board, Mostly Coastal for the Home. Sadly, most of the items that make me gaga are way out of our budget. Shocker. One of the out of budget items I pinned ages ago has had me wanting to create a coastal tablescape with wannabe plates. It just so...
A Better Way to Store Uno Cards
As we have submerged ourselves in all things summer, including rainy Florida days, we’re finding ourselves playing lots of card games. My older daughter loves to play Uno and Skip-Bo but my younger one, did a number on some of the cards…apparently cards taste fantastic. Who knew? But the boxes (which to be honest, weren’t in great shape even before her teething, destructive fingers did their thing) make me batty. No...
