It's that time of year again. Morgan and I are both March babies and we happen to celebrate our anniversary in March as well. Needless to say, it's a pretty gifty month. Recently, I've been tring to get inspiration on gift wrapping and I came across this cute confetti wrapping idea via Oh Happy Day. Wouldn't this be such a fun D.I.Y project? They look exactly like those little Italian sugar cookies.

A couple weeks ago, my good friend Yumi asked me to help plan a Valentine's Day potluck. In preparation, we hit up multiple thrift stores in the hopes of finding anything that looked like it belonged on the set of Sophia Coppola's Marie Antoinette. Having promised to make some valentine garlands, we stopped by Michael's to stock up on crafts. Originally, I had imagined making a heart garland similar to this and that. Even though I had come home with an arsenal of cutesy ribbon, sequence, and scrap book paper, I didn't have a clue to what I was actually going to make. After procrastinating all week, I finally sat down on Friday night and this is what I churned out. More photos of the party to come!
It's finally the weekend! I can't decide what color pink to paint my nails for my friends Valentine's Day potluck tomorrow. Any suggestions?
If you're like me and can't justify spending fifty dollars on ten chocolate covered strawberries, why not make your own this Valentine's day? It's an economic and more fun way to say "I love you" and it'll sound cool when you say "I made these". All you need is a carton of strawberries and microwavable chocolate dipping sauce. Eh Voila! I made these last Summer to take to a concert at the Hollywood Bowl. I didn't have cookie paper at the time so I improvised by stacking them upside down in a couple of my pink ice trays.
Happy Monday everyone! My Monday was made more entertaining thanks to Smilebooth's recent picture post from Hitched last Sunday. I've seriously been stalking their adorable website all week for this event. (Notice Morgan's sass post haircut )
Happy Sunday everyone! On Friday, a couple co-workers and I stumbled upon a little caffe called The Farmer's Kitchen. They specialize in bringing Los Angeles urbanites the freshest produce from local farmers. They also teach classes like Canning for Valentines Day and How to make your own doggie treats. When there, I had to pick up a jar of their grape and rosemary preserve and a glass of their amazing jamaica tea. I also purchased a homemade jar topper custom made by the chef's mom!
