Get creative this holiday and have your cards stand out in the stack!  We're loving this idea seen in Martha Stewart Living December Issue to use paper treat bags as envelopes.  Come check out our assortment of bags and coordinating labels!

Planning one last party of the summer?  We just did a very fun progressive garden party.  We visited three beautiful gardens, where each host provided yummy apps and drinks {not too much work for any of us}.  Ours was the final stop - dessert.  Darkness - perfect for me because our garden wasn't looking so great and I love to light up the night with lots candles! This playful table setting was fun to pull together with goodies from the shop:  bird parade paper placemats, floral cocktail napkins and frilly umbrella picks.  I actually lit our bird candles - perfect for this eclectic garden theme!  Enjoy these last warm, summery evenings!

OK, we've gone a little overboard with stickie notes and page flags!  This is just a small sampling of our actual stickie note/page flag inventory.  We have pastels, earth tones, prints, solids, themed designs {sealife, summer, food... } "What for" you ask?  Bookmarking the recipe for tonight's dinner {and, yes you can co-ordinate the color}, marking the magazine with the article or photo you want to get back to, making "to do" notes and sticking them all over... All of this has just become more fun;  a new artistic, creative experience!   Think of it as your latest style accessory and go overboard!
