Since we see so much on our site in the world of parties, once a month I'm going to highlight a popular trend in party styling we're witnessing. This month, it's fabric garlands. They are everywhere!

What's great about fabric garlands is they're simple to make -- they're just strips of fabric tied to a long ribbon.

I am not a sewer. So when I see great DIYs that involve fabric but no sewing I'm always excited. This DIY comes from Laurel at A Bubbly Life and it is brilliant, a no sew ruffle tablecloth that cost less than $10 to make. Show me how, Laurel!!

When planning my daughter's 1st birthday, I began looking for the trendy ruffled tablecloths that look so stunningly cute on tables.  However, I was unprepared for the cost, typically over $100.  I was not willing to spend that on a tablecloth, and without any sewing abilities whatsoever, I let the idea stay a dream.

I saw a photo of this rag garland Jennifer W made for her daughter Riley's 1st Birthday and I thought it was so adorable, I had to ask how she make it. She put together this easy tutorial for us, so a big thank you to you, Jennifer!

I'm really into edible favors.  I always think it's such a struggle to find gifts under $5 that you know your guests will  go home and treasure, but food is a whole different story...

So here are some great edible favors on our site for inspiration...

These parties are in no particular order. They are all beautiful, inspiring, interesting, and they make me gasp, even for a moment.  Thank you everyone for adding them to our main site. What a year it's been!
