Since I like you guys, I’m not going to lie and say this DIY is the easiest but it is pretty cheap and awesome.  It’s actually my favorite and the initial inspiration for the entire Dollar Store Decor series.  I say this DIY isn’t the easiest because it’s time consuming and the
Succulents are all the rage right now and for good reason: they’re adorable, you can’t kill them, and you can get them on the cheap!  We have our amazing succulents doing double duty – adding pretty greenery to our centerpieces and acting as our guest favors.  Spruce up some dollar store ceramic
Aren’t pinwheels so much fun?  I couldn’t stop making these because they were so cute and I wanted to keep playing with them.  This tutorial will show you how to make the patterned pinwheels you see on our tablescape.  We used them as a table number and also as place cards but

My latest invitation suite design is called Allison, and is inspired by a modern garden party. The bright florals come in three bold color palettes and are reminiscent of spring and summer, which just makes me happy!
