A Shower for Bebe Bjornard
I spotted this adorable shower for Abigail and Bebe Bjornard over at Oscar & Emma. Karly is such a talented designer. Just check out the beautiful invitation she designed for Abigail — a screen printed onesie in a box lined with registry details, sealed with a wraparound label. Love the other sweet paper details too — handmade paper rosettes and striped popcorn boxes. Congratulations Abigail, and thanks for sharing, Karly!
do you pin?
I’m so super addicted to pinterest. Several months ago, a client encouraged me to join, and I did, having absolutely zero idea what the hype was about, but it’s truly one of the most useful tools that’s been introduced online in a long time. It satiates my need for visual organization in a major kind of way. Gone are the days of organizing + cross referencing thousands of images on my desktop.
I believe my obsession devotion has paid off since merriment has recently been recognized as a tastemaker in weddings + events! I’m pinning handfuls of boards thematically for weddings — from color stories, to paper details, to Richmond focused wedding inspiration. The classic board has to be one of my favorites though.

But, lately, I’ve been obsessing over pinning ideas for baby. From baby shower inspiration to a generalized board with all things bitty.
Do you pin? Would love to see you over at pinterest!
We’re having a girl!
I’m not sure if I’ve told you, but we’re having a girl! Planning the nursery and baby shower couldn’t be more fun! Here is a sneak peek of some of the inspiration I’ve been collecting.

a thank goodness for babies baby shower
We’re working on a little thanksgiving themed baby shower. Who doesn’t like mini turkey sandwiches, caramel apples, cider and pie?

Rustic baby shower
I hear so many requests for baby parties from my clients…no more ladies-only baby showers, but parties where mom and dad can celebrate the new arrival among friends. That’s why I’m loving the details from this baby shower designed by Bo Peep Productions. It’s thoroughly modern and undeniably chic.
