{Featured} Mini Top Hats Featured on Hostess With The Mostess Trend Alert!

I felt so excited when Tonya Coleman of Soiree Event Design asked if she could feature my mini-top hats as part of her Trend Alert on Hostess With The Mostess!!!  You might remember I made a bunch of these tiny toppers for the guests at my for my daughter's Monster High Spa Party.  Well once I agreed, Tonya reached out again and asked if I could create custom hats for her upcoming Twilight Fairy’s Hollow Halloween party and I could not say no!

Here are some of the adorable photos Tonya shared with me of the custom hats I created for her.

I've always loved making handmade party hats and now that this trend is picking up, you can be sure to find more of them stocked in my Etsy shop.  In the meantime, read more about this hot new party trend over at Hostess With The Mostess!

Inspiration Thursdays: Stylish Party Trends I Heart

My new hearts are succulents (yes, as in fleshy plants with squishy innards), chalkboards and outdoor furniture vignettes!

I know it's winter, but I have been keeping a running photo tab on some really fancy ways for some do-it-up-party style when the warm weather returns.  I am sooo digging these stylish details that I've noticed over the past months and think they have a strong chance to continue on through this year. 

Here is an example of how Miss Carissa Jones of JL Designs used succulents last year for some of her remarkably spectacular events:

Spray paint succulents or hang them from glass bird feeders for a whimsical display!  Super cute!

For warm-weather parties build an outdoor room or vignette using furniture pieces from your home to create and eye catching focal points.

I am crazy about chalkboard now - I've been seeing little black boards everywhere lately - I am soooo inspired by these designs!
