Wintry Wonderland Guest Dessert Feature

This wintery wonderland was sent to us by Maureen from Anders Ruff to celebrate their new Winter Wonderland Party Collection with fresh tones of aqua, mint, light blue with pops of red.  The inspiration for the table came to them while imagining a beautiful wintry day, watching the snow fall and get piled up on the window sill. We love all of the signage and the hand sewn birds. Sweet treats on the dessert table…

Sparkler Guest Dessert Table

There are so many elements on this table from Elianne at Elivents in the Netherlands that we love. The unconventional salmon and navy color palette and quatrefoil pattern gives it a fresh look for the holidays. Hanging stars made it feel very festive, too. You can also change the shapes of the stars if you want to create a similar look for Hanukkah. Sweet treats on the dessert table included star and present shaped cakepops,…

Sweet Origins: Sufganiyot for Hanukkah

The first night of Hanukkah is already this Saturday. My boys are already asking about when they’ll get to taste their Sufganiyot. On Hanukkah, it is a tradition to eat these jelly filled, deep fried doughnuts. It is just one of the fried foods {there are also latkes} that reminds us of the miracle that occurred during the Maccabean Revolt, when oil that was lighting the sacred lamp during the rededication of the holy temple…

1)  Turntable 2) Comme Des Garcons Pouch 3) Graphite Swallow 4) Jean Paul Gaultier Umbrella 5) Stick Lighter

Happy Hanukkah: Festival of Lights Guest Dessert Feature

Tonight is the first night of Hannukah and I’m getting ready to celebrate with my family while we’re away. We so rarely get Hanukkah submissions so this made me quite happy.  This one is from Nicolle of Libby Lane Press. She created a Hannukah play date for her daughter and a few of her daughter’s friends. We love the cupcake menorah using cupcakes, mini-twix as the candles and yellow M&M’s as the flame. This idea…

Merry Monday: Turquoise and Metallic Table

This time of year makes us happy on many levels. New York City is beautiful with all of the holiday decorations and we always spend so much time with our families. We also love this time of year because we get such beautiful holiday submissions. This turquoise and metallic stunner came from the ladies over at Mon Tresor …in Australia. Suzanne styled this table for a pre-Christmas get together for her family before the Christmas
