Make celebrations memorable with creative inspiration!

Make Memorable Celebrations with Some creative inspiration

This week we have celebrations on our minds. Both of Jodie’s boys have their birthdays this month. We both just hosted intimate Easter gatherings. I’m planning a fun “Favorite Things” party with girlfriends. There’s always something in the works. If you’re anything like us when you are putting together an event, big or small, you could use some inspiration to get the creative juices flowing! I know I really love to collect ideas before I hone in on the details. Jodie and I think that getting inspired before we begin is really important (and a lot of fun too). So we decided to gather up our best entertaining posts to help you make your next celebrations really memorable.

Making Celebrations Memorable

What makes a celebration memorable? Is it the ambiance? Good food? Absolutely! Setting the stage is so important. But in the end what we are doing is creating memorable moments. We are designing all the elements to help create great memories. And if we are successful nothing is more gratifying than giving our guests beautiful moments they’ll cherish. These Holiday Hostess Tips are not just perfect for avoiding stress during the holidays, but are perfect tips to being the best and most relaxed hostess all year long.

Jodie & Julie’s Celebration Feature

Pinterest Perfect Outdoor Children’s Celebration

You will fall in love with this Penguin Themed Birthday Party from Jackie, Finding Lovely. From the unique decor, to the fun & games, to her attitude of making the most of her construction zone, we love this post. She found “perfection” amidst chaos and teaches us an important lesson as she inspires us.

Our outdoor entertaining season is upon us! Be sure to read our recent post all about Outdoor Celebrations and how to make them stress-free and unforgettable, “12 Easy Inexpensive Tips for Outdoor Entertaining.”

Ashley’s Celebration Feature

This week Amy from Tonality Designs shared this beautiful post with step by step instructions on how to create a beautiful spring floral arrangement in three different sizes. Her infographic and instructions are so helpful. Especially for someone like myself who struggles with putting together a beautiful celebrations arrangement.

This week I was part of an incredible group of bloggers and we all shared updates we have made to our home for Spring. I shared my Boho Glam Spring Living Room. I am loving the addition of the greenery and plants inside.

Janine’s Outdoor Celebrations Feature

Karen from Sanctuary Home Decor has done it again and this time with her stunning blue home decor. Her flowers are a showstopper, sigh. I’m certain you will enjoy her post probably as much as I did. Such a perfect celebration tablescape for summer.

Not sure why I always gravitate towards blue in the springtime, but here is a little snippet from my Coastal Spring Home Tour.

  We are so happy to hear that Shamara. We are loving all the inspiration as well. As creatives we have a lot to share with each other and a lot to learn from each other. That’s one main reason we wanted to host a link up party! We hope you will continue to enjoy. All the best, Julie & Jodie

Thank you, again, for hosting! At first, you were numbering the parties. Would that be able to continue being done? Without dates on the posts, or numbers on the parties, it’s hard to find. 🙂

  Hi Julie, Thanks for participating. We are in constant debate about how to name. It all comes down to SEO. Google does not like the repetition at all. That’s why we’ve gone to content theme so each week it is different. Hopefully you will still enjoy linking. We sure appreciate it. Blessings, Julie & Jodie
