the garden party.......

The friends have been invited...............










the handmade pom poms hung....











hung in style no less.....











the table set.............







the garden daybed made up.......








cupcakes put out for the children.........








patisseries from the French bakery set out....










the guests arrive and make themselves comfortable....











the wine is poured, the fresh strawberry water chilled, the conversation is giddy....












What a lovely garden party, I am so happy you came over to help celebrate my 200th post!








What could be more fun than a garden party in my yard...... How about a garden party in your yard?




What if you had a $200 gift card to my favorite little shop... Anthro, so that you could get a cute outfit for the garden party, or to dress up your own table for your very own garden party? Would you like that?




In celebration of my 200th post, and my sincere appreciation for you... my lovely readers, just leave a comment to win. If you want to post about the garden party giveaway, you will be added not once, but twice to the pot.








If you are new reader of my blog, I also have up for grabs a $150 shopping spree to my shop.................just leave a comment that you are a new reader, and just add yourself to my followers list. If you want to blog about the giveaway as well, then I will add your name again to the pot.






Have a lovely, wonderful weekend my friends!

Thanks for offering the contest. I have never shopped at Anthro but I am great at stretching money so I sure I could get a lot for $200! Have a great day and thanks for sharing pics of your party!
