forever festive.

A very happy Thursday to each of you :) I can hardly believe it, but tomorrow marks one year of Friday's Fancies link-ups! In honor of this milestone, I geared today's post toward a party planning essential: confetti. It may not be appropriate for every occasion, but in my book, confetti adds a touch of color and a boatload of fun to any fête!

{find this inspiration here: 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 - 6 - 7 - 8}

Tossing some confetti on a table or incorporating them in invitations is a simple way to up the ante. I definitely think the cheery look of confetti trumps the inevitable clean-up. In my mind, these colorful or sparkly bits will be forever festive! I'm so looking forward to tomorrow's Friday's Fancies...I'll forever count my blessings for each of you who link up week after week. See you after midnight!


P.S. Want to join in the Friday's Fancies fun!? This week, we'll be using inspiration from across the blogosphere and pinterest to create your own look! Email me if you'd like more info :)

    oh confetti really is so festive. It would be so fun to put confetti into an invitation that matches and send it off so that you could make everyone that receives it a little happier that day. :)

    Can't wait for FF tomorrow!
