Bee Happy

Bee Happy Because I'm Obsessed with some Great Stuff right now!

Maybe because I always have a Tote...with 3 Kids. But I am 

loving these little Clutches Right Now! I am in love

with Gigi New York. It's such a great brand and style.

So classy... and not over down. These little Clutches can also be monogrammed!

Yes M'am! Monogrammed too!

These are the Uber Clutches from Gigi New York!

They come in several colors! My favorite are the Python Leather ones.

I could seriously have them all! They do have Sales at different points of the year. 

These are great for gifts! And because you can Monogram them...great for little Bridesmaid Gifts!

Grab your Clutch and Go!!!

A Little Girls Style should never go unnoticed!

And these Freshly Picked Moccasins are to die for!

My Sweet Beckham wears her Rose Gold ones most days!

They jazz up most any outfit of the day!

I love a Product with a great Story! You can Read Freshly Picked Story Here.

These little Moccasins make great gifts too! You can find these Shoes at Nordstrom's.

Goodbye Summer

Hello My Friends!

Labor Day always signifies the end of Summer!

Well in Florida...I would like to think we are really saying 

goodbye to the Summer....however...still pretty warm in Tampa Bay!

Sharing a Fabulous Table Scape of Beautiful Sea Shells with you.

A lot of details to this Entertaining Table.

Definitely saying goodbye to Summer in Style!

Layer after Layer...detail after detail...this Table was Gorge!

Rustic and Fresh! Poolside! I love the feel of this Entertaining Space!

I used a Fish Net Table Runner over the Farmhouse Table to begin the Party!

Chargers on top of the Runner anchors each place setting.

In the Center of the Table is this Beautiful Lantern. 

The more you dive into this Table...the more you will love!

The Table was full of Life with Sea Shells and Star Fish.

A lot of different textures and life for this Table.

My inspiration for this table was these adorable Paper Sea Shell Napkins!

Always need a Tipping Point for any Party!

Homegoods Happy...as people like to say!

I think Homegoods is a great place to shop for Entertaining in Style.

These Little Paper Napkins were a great Summer Special Goody from Homegoods.

Topped each Napkin and Place Setting with a Real Seashell on these Napkins!

Who care's what your eating ...when it's this Pretty!!!

Always love giving my guests something pretty to look at...

and these Glass Bottles with Sea Shell Toppers are just that!

Love them! Just Beautiful and great for this Summer Table Scape!!

And speaking of different textures.

I love to add Pillows to my Entertaining Space if it fits!

These Star Fish Pillows are so Fresh and Bright!

Add a little cozy to your chairs!!

The Table had such a Outdoor Elegance! Very Nantucket! 

I like to layer for my Entertaining Spaces as well as my Decorating Style!

I guess we Dress, Decorate, and Party all in your own since of Style!

A lot of my Decorations were so very simple.

I used Jute Rope around the Lantern.

You can buy Jute Rope from most any Hardware Store.

Seashells were definitely a collection of our family beach trips!

Making the Table a great conversation!

Little Rope Balls added another dimension.

Goodbye to Summer, but not goodbye to Entertaining with Style!

I really Enjoy Summer Entertaining. Feels Fresh and Bright!

I like to use all the Natural Elements like the Sea Shells.

Summer Entertaining at it's best!!

Cheers to Entertaining in Style! Make it Pretty!

Enjoy all your Charming Details!!

Little Black Dress

Hi Friends, I am swooning over this little Color Palate

for our next project at the Honeybee me!

Check out these fabulous details of this Little Black Dress!

Ok, so the truth is I could do Black and White Parties all the time!

So when given the opportunity to dance around some Black White Stripes..I am in!

So many details that I am loving.

Have you ever used Wrapping Paper for a Table Runner!

Just Fabulous. And this little Soiree is on a tight budget

and the decorations and design are for 12 Tables. Yep. 

Not 1 table...12 Tables. And it can be hard enough to make one table look great.

The Black and White Polka Dot Wrapping Paper and Black and White Striped

Wrapping Paper with Pink Flowers is going to make a Big Impact on these Tables.

Simple Idea...but looks great...especially for multiple Tables.

These Little Black and White Straws just make me giddy and a drink so happy!!!

Grab some Ribbon and Make your own Pennant Flags for your Straws!

These are details that make a difference and make a party extra special.

And Speaking of Charming. Could be my favorite.

Check out these Glass Vases that will go on each table.

Simple Glass Vase from the Dollar Store. Yep. Your Welcome.

Color Blocked with Gold Paint at the Bottom give these Simple Vases

A Classy Rich Look to Jazz it Up! Can't wait to put Fresh Flowers in these Beauties!

Perfection!

Staying with the Theme "Little Black Dress"...Decorating

with some Great Black and White Ladies Accessories...Shoes, Jewels, and Dresses!

They always say Lighting is Key!

And these delicate little Candle Light Holders are nothing short of creative!!!

This is a Wine Glass from the Dollar Store. Yep. Your Welcome.

With a Velum Little Lamp Shade. You can get Velum Papers at most Craft Stores.

Put a Candle in the Glass....and it is just breathtaking on the Table.

The Little Black Dress Party is Swanky and Charming!

Well..I am looking forward to wearing my little black dress!

Time for another Party!!

Thanks for stopping by today!!

Bee Well!!!

Happy Hour

So this is what Happy Hour looks like this week.

As exciting as it is to Celebrate Back to School...

Hubs and I had our own Celebration!

Happy FriYay my Friends!

We had a great Bottle of Cabernet Sauvignon 2013.

My Favorite Number.. 13.

Decoy Cabernet Sauvignon from Sonoma County.

This is a Lovely Bottle Wine that doesn't disappoint.

It's a mouthful of Ripe Blackberry and Boysenberry with hints of Toasty Oak

and Sweet Cocoa. Pretty much what you are hoping for when you open

a Good Bottle of Cabernet!! Terrific Value at $20.

Check out the Decoy Winery Here.

Their Portfolio of Wines are Fantastic.

The Decoy Cabernet is Amazing with this great little appetizer.

I love me some Cheese. I don't discriminate either...any Cheese.

Try this Delicious little combo of Eats.

Fresh Brie Cheese with Fresh Figs.

Fresh Bread cut into Slices

Add some Fig Paste and Spread it on your Bread

AMAZING! 

Let the Weekend Begin!

Enjoy your Happy Hour Friends!

Have a great Weekend!

Cheers!!!

It's a Ball

So, yes today is officially the first day of school for my sweet boys.

It's been a fantastic Summer! Funny, how we just get so excited for that 

Last Day of School and then how we just are ready for School to 

start back again. It's the Schedule and the Routine. 

My body craves it! Although a Loosey Goosey Schedule is fun too!

I like to sleep late! And Stay up late! But ...the Closing Ceremonies

for "Camp Layne" have happened...right after a blast at the Adventure Island yesterday!

That's right we celebrate and live it up like Rock Stars all Summer Long!

In our house....it's Sum Sum Summer Time and we live in the moment 

and make great memories! And yes it may go by way too fast...but we can truly say

 we enjoyed and we conquered! So today, as we all snap adorable little pictures

of the 1st Day of School ..I ask...you too..to live in the moment and enjoy

those sweet faces as they embark on their next adventure of learning.

I firmly believe in making a good start for a new year...and I am also 

Southern ...I never like to show up to the party empty handed.

That goes for school too. My Boys show up with a few goodies every year...

and this being one of my favorite. Most teachers have a "Wish List"..

for those items they need for their classroom. Well..let's just make it easy 

with this adorable Mason Jar full of Crayons for their desk with a Gift Card..

to Target or Walmart for their Wish List! I like to tie either Bakers Twine or Jute Rope

to keep it Simple. Always a Tag! This one is my favorite for the Mason Jars...

Well...I am exhausted....Camp Layne's Staff...was minimal! 

Sad to say goodbye to Summer...but...

I am ready for the Fall and a New Routine!

It's a Ball! It's going to be a good year!!

Enjoy my Friends!!!
