The little children are back and they're here to help you celebrate Mother's Day!

Earth Day is April 22nd, so for those of you who want to celebrate our planet in style, Wanessa of Wanessa Carolina Creations designed these adorable Earth Day party printables!

The mini collection includes: an earth-friendly party sign, party circles, and an "Earth Day Rocks" banner.

When I first posted about this gorgeous flower pot cake that Marta T made for her Spring Time Party, the response was incredible. People wanted to know exactly how she made it.

Well, Marta put together this easy DIY explaining every step, so now you can make one for yourself. Thank you, Marta. It is fantastic!!

Have you heard of Birchbox yet?

It's this new subscription service where for $10 a month, they send you a cute pink box filled with cool new beauty samples. I joined about four months ago, and I'm loving it. It's like a little present every month in the mail just for me!

It's our first set of FREE Mother's Day printables of the year, and I couldn't be more delighted! What I love most about these is their classic feel. They're not too cutesy, not too formal, just right for celebrating mom.

Here's the latest DIY Wanessa of Wanessa Carolina Creations came up with. It's a great way to turn old wine bottles into beautiful conversation pieces! Wouldn't these be perfect as vases, centerpieces, or even to serve wine out of? 

I just learned of a great new site I had to share. It's called Eventup and it's an online party venue booking site.

It's based here in Santa Monica, so a few weeks ago I had coffee with the founder, Tony Adam, and he told me all about it.

My husband is really excited about baseball season starting, so I thought it would be fun to try my hand at baking homemade pretzels.

I love hot pretzels, especially when paired with a good dipping sauce (like the spicy Gruyère and creamy Nutella recipes I've included below). Honestly, what could be better than enjoying a hot pretzel and a cold beer while watching baseball?

We recently gave away an adorable collection of free girl baby shower printables, and today I'm thrilled to be giving away the matching boy baby shower set. These printables were designed by Katie from Green Apple Paperie.  I just love how classic and modern they are.

The collection includes: invitations, thank you cards, party circles, cupcake wrappers, Hershey’s Kiss labels, wish tree cards, advice for mom cards, water bottle labels, tented cards, straw flags, and an “It’s a Boy” banner.
