One of my favorite features in the latest The Party Dress Magazine was the burger bash photo shoot I did…..preppy seersucker, bold stars and a hint of patriotic pizzazz. A burger bash is the perfect time to gather friends and family this Fourth of July. Good food, and good friends….that’s what the holidays are about, right? I’m a [...]

One of my readers sent me the link to this party…..a playgroup 4th of July party where the hostess used my free 4th of July printables to make the cupcake toppers. They look fabulous, don’t you think?! Have you downloaded yours yet? Image via Melissa [...]

L-O-V-E this idea from Better Homes and Gardens! Perfect for the 4th of July, but also a great tip for dressing up any table: These playful stripes were created by layering colorful rubberbands around a votive candle holder. Simple, right? So next time you are strolling thru Office Depot, take a peek at the colored rubber bands [...]

Holiday decorations are kept simple and sophisticated in my home, so this concept from Better Homes and Gardens is just perfect for me! A red tin star (I just saw some at my local Home Goods) atop a boxwood wreath, embellished with a navy and white stripe ribbon – it’s the perfect combination of patriotic, preppy [...]

In my quest for finding a new, never-been-seen-before-at-the-family-bbq dessert, I came across these three recipes – and now I’m stumped! What’s a girl to do? They all look delicious and pretty (which always helps in my book!). So, help me decide! Which do you think looks the most appetizing?! Red, White and Blueberry [...]

Looking for some last minute decoration ideas for your fourth of July bbq? I fell in love with all three of these ideas…… First, turn your 3-tier serving piece into a 3-tier centerpiece! Perfect for either your dinner table or a buffet table! I love how they stacked the three different color flowers, it creates a sophisticated [...]

July is one of my favorite months of the year! It is {normally} perfect, summer weather in Chicago, the fourth of July, and my birthday! So in celebration of this fabulous month, I decided a free printable was in order! Here are two free printables for your fourth of July celebration: cupcake toppers and food tent [...]

Fourth of July is just around the corner – anyone planning a big party or BBQ? I loved this centerpiece idea from Good Housekeeping. Simple, with a preppy nod. Simply attach grosgrain ribbon to any vase with double-sided tape. You could take this idea and adapt it to any party theme – it would be darling [...]

When it comes to Memorial Day, I like to keep it simple. A family BBQ is normally in the plans, and if we are lucky (with our wishy-washy Chicago weather) we’ll get to eat outside! I love this table setting from Pottery Barn….the white paper lanterns dress it up in an easy, DIY-way, and [...]
