We have been experiencing lovely Spring weather in Georgia, and I couldn’t be more excited. I am attempting to take a fresh approach in terms of styling (and maybe some altering) to items that have been in my closet for years. I’ll let you know how that goes… and of course, try to properly document [...]

Atlanta NotWedding vendors representing in Orlando My scenic drive, complete with a tear-jerking sunset! ha! Fresh Love Collection from Yours is the Earth Mini Cupcakes with Jessica of Fine and Fluerie Orlando NotWedding [...]
Yesterday I had this treat for an afternoon snack. My sister had made herself one and once I smelled the Nutella it caused an immediate finger in jar reflex…shhhh. I high recommend whipping one of these bad-boys up if your craving something sweet. All you have to do is: Toast a whole wheat pita. Generously spread on [...]
Yes, last week I went to Florida for a work trip. Allie and I worked on our new line of wedding stationery and showcased a handful of designs at the Orlando NotWedding. It was a grrrrreat trip, but blogging did not happen. That’s okay. These are the pics I took on my drive down… intended for last [...]
If you’re a “regular” you’re probably aware of the Sweet Freedom Campaign and our desire to spread awareness for the child labor and human trafficking on the cocoa farms of West Africa. This campaign is a collaborative effort with Making Noise, Inc. We’re using our skills and passions to be voice for those without…utilizing what we already have been [...]
We recently put on a Sweet Freedom dinner here in Atlanta (more on that later) and one of the snacks served was Chocolate. Almond. Grapes!! Yes, they are as delicious as they sound…and just may be my new favorite fruit! Antioxidants from the chocolate, protein from the nuts… what’s not to love?!? Okay that’s a stretch, but give ‘em a [...]

There is nothing classier than black and white. It’s clean and makes a statement. These Black and White Floral Garland Fill-In-The-Blank Invitation Sets bring a pop of color with Lemondrop French Paper envelopes. Perfect stationery for a rehearsal dinner, bridal shower, dinner party, or birthday party!
I found this damaged cardigan for $1 months ago. I fell in love with the color and the militant vibe…with gold and sequins nonetheless. I purchased it with the intention of fixing the trim, but it sat in my closet unattended to. I decided to simply knot the trim and let it hang…gives the sweater more character [...]
First of all, don’t you love the names of the this couple?! They have cute names AND stellar taste! The NYC couple is getting married on a beautiful ranch in Wyoming.

Having thrown a bridal shower or two in my day, my favorite party favor was mini bags of coffee beans or tea sachet. I’d create a cute little tag with the witty line “The Perfect Blend” and secretly call myself a genius. Okay, genius is a stretch. However, I love the phrase and idea of gifting caffeine! In [...]

It was also the perfect motivation to create a few new products (they will be available in the shop later this week). Here’s a glimpse of the booth shared with the fabulous [...]
Last summer I designed this invitation suite for an untraditional rustic wedding. The couple was getting married outside and incorporating many natural elements. For the design I took the same route, but a more graphic approach with the woodgrain and branch elements. Yes, they “put a bird on it”…. in fact two birds. Each bird [...]
