Football Party Packs {Sneak Peek}

Here are a few photos of the Football Party Packs that we're working on. This particular pack is for the University of Florida Gators but each pack can be customized to fit your team's colors, whether college or professional.

Here is a quick spread of the decorations I've dreamed up so far. Obviously this is "staged" because when I am designing, it never looks this neat! 

Fun with stamps! These adorable pennants can be adhered to toothpicks and stuck into delicious finger food or atop game-day cupcakes. 

A view of the tools and accessories I'm using...and, yet another pennant! I promise there will be more to the packs than our pennant but these I've made so far are really cute. 

Fun, fun, fun! These tile coasters are as much fun to make as they are to use! Here is a preview of a design I'm testing.  The final product may change a bit but I'm definitely using these around my house this football season!  Styled coasters for your team are a perfect touch to any party. These are included in the pack, as well.

Here is a simple yet cute way to claim your cup during those rowdy football games. These adorable clothes pins are included in our party packs and used to tell whose cup is whose.

Party packs include homemade and unique party decor for various themed events. We do all of the coordinating, cutting, gluing, painting and arranging. All you do is open the pack and impress all of your guests.

These particular Gator packs are for those football viewing and tailgate parties for our UF football fans. The packs can be made to fit any team, college or professional, though. So, if you would like original party decor that isn't found anywhere else, check out our shop {which is coming soon}! If you can't find what you're looking for, contact us and we'll get started making something just for you for no extra charge. 

Game Day Fashion

Fall semester starts next week and with it comes a rush of excitement for the beginning of the college football season. Josi put together some really cute outfits for game day. We live in Gainesville, Florida -- heart of Gator Football -- so we went with orange and blue. However, these styles could easily be altered to go with your favorite team's colors.

This casual outfit would work well for tailgating and watching the game at the stadium. Bring on the burgers and corn hole!

Gator Dress by simplysweetgnvl featuring metal jewelry

Here is a sweet dress with very girly accessories. It's casual enough for tailgating but dressy enough for a game day soiree. President's Box, anyone?

Didn't Josi do such a great job finding these adorable game-day outfits? She has an eye for fashion. Which is why I am constantly raiding her closet.

I hope these outfits have given you some inspiration and made you excited for football season! Check back at the end of this week for our new Gator Party Packs -- full of everything you need to make your game-day extra sweet!

a 4th of July tea party

As I was preparing the house to celebrate Independence Day, I took our American flag out of it's triangle case that we have mounted on the wall.  For the 4th, we put it on full display in all of it's red, white, and blue glory.

I decided the flag would be a perfect backdrop for my tea party table scape. We have a beautiful blue porcelain tea set that I thought was so representative of the holiday. And so, the two collided to make the set up below.

Free 4th of July printables from my favorite sites!

While searching the web to find inspiration for a 4th of July table I'm putting together, I came across these adorable {and free!} printables and just had to share them with you. Their corresponding websites are listed below.

 These are so much fun to use on the table. Print them on label paper and put them on your glass pitcher full of sweet iced tea or lemonade.

 If you cut the flag designs in half, they can be used as decoration for your 4th of July invitations.

 You could also use these napkin ring designs on small glass candles. 

I will be sure to put up photos from my own tablescape including my ideas for each of these printables. I hope you found a little inspiration for your own Independence day celebration!
