It's Snowing!

You've seen it in the movies, you've seen it at the Playboy Mansion, and you may even see it in Vancouver this weekend- fake snow, created by Snow machines sold or rented by none other then "Snowmasters."
What if you want to throw a Winter Wonderland party in Florida? Or even Virginia (where you wouldn't regularly be digging out from under a foot of snow)? The answer is a machine that looks just like a fog machine, but throws up life like flakes for that magical feeling.
Best of all, no snowsuit required.

Superbowl Fever

To all of you out there who enjoy the Superbowl food and commercials more than the game itself, this one is for you. Check out these adorable down loadable printable tags, napkin rings and banners that are the perfect addition to any Superbowl party-regardless of who you're rooting for. You can find them at www.etsy.com
Add these to the bar next to some wings (New Orleans Saints) and mini pub burgers (nothing says Indiana and Midwest like an all-beef burger), and you've got yourself a party.
Remember, keep it down during the commercials!

Perfect Blossoms

For those of you who are looking to create beautiful floral table arrangements at home, but don't yet have the skill level to make your arrangements look like those of the pros, check out the Blossom Crown.
These metal beauties come in a variety of sizes to crown the top of a vase. Accessorize with some of the many crystal choices, then simply add cut flowers and you'll have a beautiful arrangement with no effort that will have your guests wondering about your new found skills.

Oh, The Convienence

Anyone who has ever been tagged to "Birthday Cake Duty" can appreciate these fork candles from Fred and Friends.
Now, as hostess, your dessert is ready to go as soon as the candles are blown out. No more taking orders, digging for forks and making a mess. It is all right there in front of you (and the candles are easier to find and handle now too!)
And as a guest with a sweet tooth, let me just say, I fully appreciate anyone who has dessert ready to devour as fast as possible.

Now you can let your coffee say it for you with one of these unique coffee stencils. The company, coffeestencil.com offers your own logos and text as well as a whole collection of their own ready-made text and logo stencils. tell your loved ones your pregnant, ask your significant other to marry you, or pep up your teenager with a special wish. Whatever your motive, it's an inexpensive and memorable way to connect with the ones you love. Delish!

Catering Truck Perfection

Instead of catering in your next outdoor event on a big traditional buffet, call a caterer who can literally deliver the food into your backyard on all four wheels.

The catering truck will wow your guests with charm, is pretty easy on the budget (averaging about $8 a person), and, really, who has ever complained about food sold to them off a street vendor cart?

Plenty of companies are offering catering trucks in all regions of the U.S. This is a picture of an In-and-Out Burger truck in Southern California, but you can have everything from ice cream trucks to full on BBQ roasts for your guests. And the best part? You don't have to clean up a thing!

Catering trucks would also be an amazing send-off for guests after a wedding or party. Skip the doughnuts or second round of food, and escort your guests outside for a memorable meal. Let's be honest, some of the best nights out have ended at the taco hut.

Flippin' Awesome

I just love this idea for any event. Make them favors, make them save-the-dates, or throw a party to have an excuse to make them at all.

Flipbooks, the retro picture motion books that we were all amazed with when we were young, is one of the hottest trends to hit events this year.

Now you can get your guests together in front of a camera and their seven second video clip is instantly transformed into a flipbook for them to take home and enjoy.

Or, make your flipbooks ahead of time and send them out as invites or pass them out as favors.

The company, Iloveflipbooks.com, has reps in almost any U.S. state, and will even bring props and signs to let your guests' imaginations run wild. For something interactive and flippin fun, book your flip book today!
