Copycat Martha Stewart Paper Strip Garland

Posted on Rose

While trying to get through my perpetually growing magazine pile, I ran across this picture of Martha Stewart’s Paper Strip Garland: And thought to myself, I can totally make that! Well, you know what? This time I was right! I happened to be getting really into paint chip crafts for our housewarming party and I just knew they were the perfect medium for this knock-off. Not only are these so simple, but there are so many uses for them. Hang them off your chandelier or over your table for a unique and colorful hanging centerpiece. Try them on your front porch to welcome guests to your party. They’re a great decorative element to define a space (think gift table, bar area, etc.). I even think they could make a super cute mobile for a baby’s room! And don’t feel like you have to stick to rectangles. Get creative with your scissors or use hole punches to try a variety of shapes.

Easy as one, two, three!

I’ve been seeing mason jar treatments everywhere. So, when I found myself on a farm with an extra mason jar and spray paint, I couldn’t help myself. It was meant to be. I was convinced this wouldn’t be as easy as it seems. I was wrong. It really is as simple as pointing and spraying. And the result is even more stunning than pictures can do justice. Since I already had plans for the table centerpieces at this party, I used this arrangement to spruce up the lady’s room. The jar got a little banged up on the trip home, but I like it even better now that it looks a little aged. It’s a welcome addition to our table for fall! Feeling adventurous? Try this super cool jar meets spray paint idea from Pure and Noble.

The Perfect Pumpkin Fall Centerpiece

Posted on Rose

Alright folks, it’s getting to be THAT time of year. The leaves are changing, my neck is no longer covered in a constant film of sweat, and the stores are eagerly reminding us that Christmas is literally RIGHT. AROUND. THE CORNER! (Also known as three months away.) Last October, I was notified that it is essential that we have the Hubs’ father, step-mother, grandmother, aunt #1 of 9, aunt #2 of 9, and brother over for dinner before we had our one year anniversary in November. I tried (desperately) to tell the Hubs that there was no way his Grandma would be able to get up the stairs to our apartment. No dice. This lady is seriously so cool (and determined) that she practically crawled up the two flights of stairs to our place. I aspire to be more like her. I knew I had to really take it up a notch to impress this delightful new branch of my family. They throw THE BEST parties. And, since I tend to over analyze even the simplest of shindigs I attend, that is major kudos.
