Handcrafted Celebrations

Inspired weekend- the good ol’days


04.30.10 Posted in inspiration by Vicky

I’ve been working with a group of wonderful women this week planning and preparing for an upcoming party entitled- Sherbet & Spice. A party filled with old fashioned fun, ice cream, and lovely vintage touches. It is an event that takes us all back to the good ol’ days of chalk drawing, hula hooping and lazy summer afternoons. I have been incredibly inspired by our plans.

More touches of old fashioned loveliness:

The good ol’days wouldn’t exist without Mrs. Crocker and her party ideas, what an amazing book.
A supremely inspiring ice cream parlor buffet.
A pair of earrings as yummy as a layered ice cream cone.
A pink kite that reminds me of very lovely things indeed- his whole site is actually amazing, be prepared to waste an hour.
Dreamy engagement post-cards from a long ago time.
Fabric in all the right hues.
Individual pies tied up with good ol’ yarn as sweet party favors.
An old fashion ice cream recipe that makes my mouth water.
Lastly, a great kids game from the past that is perfect to make today.

blessings.

PS. I don’t know why but thinking of vintage circa 1950’s always brings to mind laying in the sun in a glamorous swim suit & eating ice cream. A great plan for this warm weekend ahead.
