Time to...
'
The latest NIB Challenge is on and it's all about celebrations so today I thought I'd share some scenes from a VIP Birthday Dinner I put together recently.
Inspired by some Marimekko napkins, the colour scheme was bright and summery -
with splashes of white -
some pretty pink roses -
and spray painted animals -
dressed up with polka dot bows -
A side table was made festive by adding some party hats -
and blowers -
some pretty pink gum blossoms -
a fun quote -
and, of course -
cake!
All in all, fresh and fun! And the VIP client? Well - that was me! I am sure all the pink was a bit of a giveaway!
May your weekend be fun and festive,

Green is a very versatile colour when it comes to decorating. I hope that you feel inspired to channel your inner leprechaun and enjoy your greens!
