My third video is up and it’s a quick little trip I took with Josh to Chicago just a few weeks ago! It was a quick trip but we packed in all the essentials for this trip including hitting the Frank Lloyd Wright house, Radiohead concert, a boat tour, Navy Pier, and of course, FOOD! (We ate A LOT on this trip lol)

This last weekend I hosted a bridal shower for my sister-in-law. It was a fun get together and I spent the week getting together some fun pieces for the shower!
All of the paper pieces can be found in my Silhouette Shop. There are a lot of different party pieces here so I hope you are inspired by the table scapes and decor!
Clearly, I was inspired by succulents for this party. The actual starting point though was the taco bar. Because there was a Mexican theme in the food, I wanted to carry through a bit of “desert” into the decor.
(The taco bar included copycat recipes from Cafe Rio for their shredded chicken, black beans, and rice. I also included guacamole, cilantro, limes, chips, tortillas, and salsa.)
I stuck to bottled drinks and water to keep things simple.
I have instructions on how to put together my basic succulent in a video at the end of this post. You can also go directly to my youtube channel for it. You can subscribe directly to the channel by clicking here.
One of my favorite projects was this Succulent Wreath! I show you the wire wreath base and an in progress shot in the tutorial video below.
I also love how the topiaries turned out!
Below: Lacy Favor Cards for the gift!
Inspired to watch the video to see how to make these? I also included a few shots from the event as it was going on! I hope you are inspired for your next party!
XOXO, Carina
