{Mother's Day Gift Guide}...The Colorful Hostess

Do you have a mom that loves to throw parties? My family has a tendency to throw impromptu parties for no reason at all. (We're having a "welcome home/summer" party in a few weeks, even though Abby & I live only an hour and a half away and visit often!) My mom has a bright personality, and our parties reflect it, too! For the "hostess with the mostest", here are some summer-fun essentials!

Three section water color serving platter.

Every hostess needs some classy bling.

Perky green nails for everyone to admire while she serves up the ice cream.

Champagne box for easy transport from party to party.

A colorful handbag for when the party moves from home to out on the town.

Beautiful serving bowls for her homemade dip and chex mix.

Spunky pillows funky seating.

Orange lips for those party pics you never forget.

Back to Back

It's got to be a double take, right? First we have Christmas festivities and then one short week later we've got a blowout bash to wave goodbye to 2012! Luckily, our family splits up the crazy, so everyone can breath a little in between planning and partying. My mom, Abby and I have been putting our heads together...on Pinterest. With some bubbly, sparkles, smiles, and plenty of pictures, New Year's Eve should be a night to remember!
