Blue and brown are popular colors for a boy’s first communion. Adding in hints of green and white with your party decorations creates a beautiful soft and elegant look to your event. The Brown Cross invitation is printed on shimmery paper and comes with matching shimmery envelopes (available in other colors.)
We love these dessert ideas and the mints with bible verses printed on the packages are a nice touch to your tables.

The Front Runner Party Invitations are a great way to set the tone for your Kentucky Derby party. To carry the elegance through to your party, you can use red roses as your centerpieces, a red velvet cake for desert and of course, no Derby party would be complete without Mint Juleps. Show guests you care by presenting them with party favor boxes filled with treats or a trinket or ribbon tied cello bags filled with nuts or candies.

If you believe in such things, the Farmers’ Almanac predicts a winter storm will hit New York – New Jersey February 2, 2014. Snow in February, not unusual. Snow on the East Coast, not unusual.
The part that makes this prediction noteworthy is that the storm is supposed to hit around kick off time of Super Bowl XLVIII being held at the “open” MetLife Stadium. OK, so you’re thinking you’re glad you didn’t buy your ticket to be there in person, but there’s more to it than just crowding around the big screen and watching the game with your rowdy friends in a heated living room or bar.
It was announced on December 18th by the NFL, that in the event of a forecast of heavy snow, the game would be rescheduled for the Saturday before, or for the Monday or Tuesday after.
I don’t know if it’s just me, but how do you schedule something for the “Saturday before” based on something that hasn’t or won’t happen until Sunday? What if it is still snowing or the blizzard continues raging Monday or Tuesday? What constitutes a blizzard severe enough to affect kickoff? How does the NFL let everyone know the date’s been changed? What if you’re flying in on Saturday and the game’s played while you’re in the air?
I could go on and on, but the most important question to those of us without tickets to this “freeze your tush off bowl”, how do we schedule our warm, indoor party if there is really a chance this thing won’t happen on Sunday the 2nd?
This is not like a rain date for a kid’s birthday party. We talking major logistic issues for everyone involved from the beer salesman and the ticket takers to the fact that most ticket holders and party-goers probably have jobs and will be on the job Monday or Tuesday. I wonder how many reserved their hotel rooms through Tuesday or booked airline tickets for such a contingency plan?
Let us know what you’ve got planned for Super Bowl “sure hope it stays” Sunday or what your crazy question is.

You can arrange white pumpkins, painted white pumpkins or fake pumpkins painted white on a platter or in a basket with other size gourds, fall leaves, pine cones, or tree branches on a bed of moss.
If you add candles, try using different sizes with hurricane glass over them to add flair and keep the flame away from the items in your arrangements.

I was wondering why our kraft favor boxes webpage was getting so many visits, and after some investigating, we discovered our kraft boxes were on Martha Stewart!
How exciting!
Featured in a stunning spread on Hilary and Kyle’s New York City wedding, we were thrilled to see how beautiful their favors were. Hidden in the box is Champagne jelly made by the mother-of-the-bride. Sounds yummy.
