Bird's Party Magazine has released their Spring issue and it's filled with so many wonderful ideas for the spring season. In this new issue, there's a wonderful styled wedding table setting in hot pink with black and white stripes {makes me think of Kate Spade}. The design for this tablescape was inspired by seasonal blooms and boasts stunning ideas for both the eyes and tastebuds.

My favorite ideas from this glam wedding + dessert table include:

1. The large "Best Day Ever" poster behind the dessert display
2. The single bloom on the top of the cake with the striped ribbon along the bottom. Prefer to place an everlasting bloom on your cake? You may like this clay peony cake topper.
3. The white milk glass bowls for the dessert display - they match the white ruffled cake stands
4. The glitter bows instead of ribbon around the "spread the love" favor jars
5. The black pom-pom topped drink stirrers

With the holiday season here and winter weddings being planned I knew it was time to start sharing some inspiring ideas for your upcoming events. Plus, this is one of my favorite times of year {not so much the cold outside, but I love having the fireplace going and drinking hot cocoa or tea and enjoying the sights and sounds of the season}. I spied these great table decor ideas over at Better Homes and Gardens and wanted to share them with you right away. See below for the How-To's . . .

natural elements candle . . . In the bottom of a glass jar or vase you will place a branch of greenery and then fill the glass just about two-thirds with water. Drop in some cranberries and a floating candle.

festive snowflake plate . . . Take an inexpensive glass or clear plastic plate and be sure to wash it first to remove any grease or fingerprints. With a white oil-base paint marker like a Sharpie you will draw snowflakes on the underside of the plate. Once dry, it's ready to use. This plate will need to be hand-washed gently and you'll want to avoid scrubbing the bottom.

frosted berry napkin ring . . . The berries were plucked from a strand of garland and their wire was wrapped around the grapevine mini wreath. They were then brushed with clear drying glue and sprinkle with clear glitter. For the finishing touch - simply add little sprigs of greenery through the grapevine.

pinecone-petal seating cards . . . You will create multiple blooms from one pinecone when you cut straight through one with pruners. With white acrylic paint you will paint the petals and then on a leaf shape cut from green cardstock you can write your guests' names. The card can be slid between the petals.
