  • Hi lovelies! Hope you all had an amazing weekend. I am suppose to be starting my “nutritional overhaul” this week however there are three occasions in the next three months {Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas} that happen right after each other, each requiring mass intakes of food. Not just any kind of food, real baked homemade put you to bed food. I know, bad timing. I will try but it’s going to be tough! I came across this treat on the New England food blog, Fresh and my mouth began to water. You see, I like apples but I love pears. The unique, granular, grainy texture of pears and...

  • I love these fresh floral designs from Melbourne based florist Prickly Pear There is something cosy and warm about their arrangements. Their use of hatboxes, cupcakes and gorgeous ribbon makes an ordinary bunch of flowers into something really special. Want More?

    A few photos of centerpieces we made for an event this week at the 3 West Club. I forgot to take the camera with us on the delivery- but the Club was beautifully decorated for the holidays with fresh garland, wreathes, trees and candles. After the delivery we walked over to Rockefeller Center and saw the giant Christmas tree. I've lived in NYC for six years and I have to admit that this is the first time I have seen the tree in person. It was pretty amazing. ...

    With Thanksgiving fast approaching, I find myself thinking of family and feasts, which I think would be an excellent theme for a wedding. For today’s inspiration board, using seasonal colors (flavors) of gingerbread and pear, I imagined an intimate wedding dinner at a favorite restaurant. Since my own reception was held at a restaurant, I’ve seen what a wonderful choice it can be for a wedding celebration, especially if it’s a chance to share one of your favorite places with your closest family and friends. Decorations would be simple here, just candles and fresh pears. And ...

    Using pears {the 'perfect pair'} in wedding decor is nothing new but the way this bride incorporated the idea feels completely new and fresh to me and I love it! The bride, Morgan, bought the pears first as Christmas ornaments and painted and added leaves to them to make them work for her wedding as sweet escort card holders.{Images by M Three Studio}...
