*Disclaimer- My camera is shot (another post for another day). Meaning, I'm lucky if i can get it to take pictures let alone pictures that are in focus, so bear with me.
Renee gave me these decorating tip set. Yeah, She's a rockstar. I have wanted these for YEARS, but never could justify buying this over life sustaining items. Perfect for a party- Thanks Renee!
So of course I had to go out and buy this with my 50% off coupon from JoAnns.
Which looks like this after all the cupcakes are eaten.
I did many designs, here's the lone surviving cupcake, I managed a fuzzy picture of before it was devoured. I did all the cupcakes in purples and whites.
Party Decor was fresh flowers and candles.
My friend Lauren who donated hours of her time to help setup made me this as a housewarming gift. Cute huh? I told her I really wanted a name plaque and she made it happen. What a friend.
Every party needs Entertainment.

Now, the house still needs lots of interior design work. We tried using mostly what we had and threw in a few new rugs here and there. Baby steps...
Got this shelf a week before at a garage sale- $7 It's got the shabby chic thing going on. I high fived myself when I went to Lowe's last night and saw almost the same thing for $89-$120.

5 Notes to the Queen Bee:
Congrats! It looks so good! I wish I could have been there. Really wish I could have been there. I think all the rooms look great, even your couches in the living room. Who needs that sectional? Especially love the stuff above your cabinets.
Just love your new house. Thanks for all the pictures. So wish we could have been there. Looks gorgeous!
I love the house. Makes me house hungry.. Is that possible? :) wish I could have been there.
Your house is way more decorated than ours... and we've been in ours for a year! Everything looks great! I'll be by to see it one day, I promise. Just got to get this boy to stop eating all the time (Eli, not Adam).
Wow! So cute and well done. You are truly in seventh heaven now, you are Kevan are so blessed! Great job hosting!
