Sherbert & Spice and everything nice…
This ice cream birthday was pure joy for me to produce. From the inspiration found here to the invitations found here- it was girlie, summer, old-fashioned fun at its best and I am just giddy to share a bit of it with you today.

A baby shower, Sly Little Fox was thrown this weekend with great joy. I just adore Debbie, the mom-to-be. It was a blessing working with her friends and to plan this special evening for her. Baby boy is due in July and his favorite animal is now officially a fox:)

Pearls, tulle, a gated fence and bright bold colors were the backdrop for our pinwheels & pearl party design last weekend. The party design + games made the afternoon seem magical.
