Being a Good Hostess: Hurricane Edition
As anyone who’s ever been to a gathering knows, refreshments are key! Here I’ve made our guest a margarita to enjoy while on her rampage, a girl does get thirsty! And I’ve laid out guest towels and an umbrella to hurl across our great state.
With any social gathering it is important to keep in mind who you’re inviting to ensure an easy going atmosphere and great conversation. My guest list for this party will include the Crab Brothers, for their shared interested in rolling around in treasure,
and some mermaids from down the shore who are reminding me of another tip: if you are an invited guest it is always a good idea to bring a gift to your host. Sandra has decided to bring a giant clam, always a hit!, and Kendra brought a Starfish. What’s nice about these gifts is that they’re local, unassuming and they fit the theme. Great job ladies!
Welcome Irene, may your trip be short and sweet and I really hope you don’t throw a pail through my window. Happy Hurricane-ing, stay safe!
New stuff in my Etsy shop!
Ok, the wedding’s over and I’m back from the honeymoon. Time to get back to work…after I catch up on horribly addicting reality TV shows of course. I mean, have you even seen Ice Loves Coco? Amazing.
But I digress…
These little guys were just added to my Etsy shop. Go check ’em out!
Let me know if you want something special painted. I love custom orders!
