Tara’s Holiday Tidbits

This year my Christmas cards will feature recent photos taken by my friend Travis Dew.  I am loving her photography of children, and just wanted to spread the word about her amazing talent!

I received this Happy Holiday email today and thought the artwork from Furman Land Design, LLC was just fitting for a Lowcountry Greeting.

A Woman of Many Talents

Liz Banfield recently shared with me some photos and comments from a recent “Golden Anniversary” party she threw for her parents… it’s adorable, and of course is just complimented by her photography… who knew we could add event designer to her resume!

I candied kumquats for the “topper” and the ornate ribbon was from Hymen Hendler & Sons in NYC.

On a budget, I chose candles over flowers for ambience.  It was their “golden” anniversary so I picked out this garland from Michaels.  I was a bit torn – looked like it could be tacky in the store – but it did look nice under the low lights… mirror tiles are from Ikea.

I dislike the “shrine” aspect of the usual photo display so I tried to make things more uniform my printing in B&W on 4×6.

Thank you Martha Stewart for this idea… pom poms attached to bamboo for swivel sticks.

No budget for flowers so I just did this large branch that cost $3.

A sign on the door using the same paper as the invitation and a photo from my parents wedding.  This was also the photo we used on the custom stamps.  Thank you Tara for teaching me that fresh flowers and hot glue can go together!!!
