Two weeks ago, my best friend since Kindergarten celebrated her 25th birthday-Great Gatsby style. She wanted a tea party with a vintage feel and created just that. With a budget of less than a $100, she pulled off a beautiful and elegant affair with a splash of color and quaint details. 

This past weekend was little Laila's first birthday! She is the sweet daughter of my dear friend Tara of Laila's Charming Pieces. Tara put so much hard work into the planning of this event and it really showed! She is so talented and creative!
For Laila's birthday, Tara put together a Tea Party theme with handmade paper tea cups for favors, pretty crochet garland (which will be in her shop soon), tissue pom poms, iced tea with mint and lemon infused ice cubes, yummy cupcakes in cloches and lots of other lovely decor.
Here are some photos of Laila's {handmade} first birthday.

A couple weeks ago, I was very honored to be a part of a beautiful styled shoot created by my friend, Aurora Vilchis. She used inspiration from Darling Magazine to execute her vision which turned out just stunning, a word that just so happens to match her character.
Not only was I included in the photos, but I also created some simple, yet colorful floral arrangements and glitter heart toppers for the yummy muffins that were delicately devoured. :)
Since being involved with this classic tea party shoot, I was able to meet several other lovely ladies that have such beautiful hearts. It was a great experience and I wanted to share a little peak into this inspiring day.
