Kids Parties





Having had many years of organising and decorating parties for children, least of all my own now thankfully grown up teenage girls, I am now faced with the prospect of having to do it all again for twinkle!

Excuse the tomato sauce!

Some fab ideas for throwaway parties from http://www.thinkgarnish.com/ whilst letting the kids be creative.

Spring ideas


Top Row Tea Forte, MS, The Knot
Centre Loves me Love me Knot
Second Row, MS, The Knot
Third Row, L's me L's me K, MS
Fourth Row L's me L;s me K, MS
Spring Weddings, I love spring flowers and all the pastel colours, Daisies, Vintage Roses, Daffodils, Tulips, Hyacinths,
all sum up the spring for a wedding this time of year.
Try incorporating butterflies into this theme as it works so well.

Gosh here we are only just into January and already I am putting together ideas for brides here in Marbella. Will keep posting them as I design them. This bride has emailed me and cannot decide between pink or red, yet the combination of the two will be far more stunning than just one colour. We also have such bright colours here in Spain with the fuschia buganvillas and red hibiscus this colour scheme will work so well with any event here in Spain.

Photo Shoot Los Monteros


Well finally after a busy Christmas and getting ready for 2008 we kickstarted off with the photo shoot at Los Monteros and of course it was cloudy, cold and damp so inside we went.
We did manage to get a few shots outside though, note the grey skies!
Here is my beach theme, turquoise with cream paper orchids, shells, white pebbles and turquoise crystals.
These are my photos but when I receive the images from Los Monteros I will post those on, sure they will be a lot better than mine!
