RUSTIC EMERALD THEMED TABLE {Cassandra + Springfield P.C.}

/

In celebration of St. Patty's day and the rustic craziness these days I thought I'd tie them together and do an Emerald table with touches of burlap & lace.

I used an iridiscent specialty linen in Emerald, with a lace overlay and matching Emerald linen napkins. Using burlap and lace wrapped mason jars filled with the simple greenery and hydrangeas give this table a relaxed feeling. Let's kick off our boots and throw back a heineken !

Happy St. Patty's Day Friends !

 

with love, Cassie 

SWEET PINK LOVE THEMED TABLE {Cassandra + Springfield P.C.}

/

While I can't quite go into details, just yet; a local business and I have teamed up and they asked me to set and design tablescapes for their showroom - and how could a girl say no ? I had so much fun designing and creating silk flora for the sweet family behind this Central IL rental company. I'm absolutely honored to do this for them and show case their lovely rentals. I had fun dreaming up a tables cape for February and incorporating just a hint of Valentine's Day. Enjoy the IPhone pics I snapped. 

This table makes me want to sit down and have dinner, how about you ? Happy Friday sweets!

xoxo Cass

HAPPIEST MARCH

/

Of course I had to share with you a wonderful quote by my talented paper friends over at Wiley Valentine. These ladies truly have a gift. These days this quote uplifts me as well as phone calls with friends and late nights watching silly comedies from high school. 

Happy March !

KISS YOUR HONEY ! {Happy Valentines Day !}

/

    I don't know about you guys, but Valentines day makes me weak in the knees. Every shade & variation of pink takes over the world and seems to fill every retail store. It simply makes me giddy - JD knows it's one of my absolute fave holidays. Not just because of the pink explosion, but because the last 9 years I have had the honor of celebrating with someone who makes me want to do all the things that this lovely design via Wiley Valentine created. Today we are doing our usual - popping a bottle of our favorite Italian red, visiting the greatest Italian restaurant here in Springfield, Palermo's, and then coming home to open our cards and then it's Seinfeld and the Office with our yearly brownie indulgence. From my heart to yours: Happy Valentines Day! 

Be sure to head over to Wiley Valentine and check out all their lovely stationary. They are incredible!!

SO Magazine Feature

Guys! Yes this!! So this lovely little gem landed on shelves last week and I'm so excited to point you over here to read all about my thoughts on Social Media Wedding Etiquette that the wonderful SO Magazine interviewed me for. I may or may not have bought four copies of it and did a booty dance in my kitchen when the calls came in last week. I can't thank Julie & the folks behind SO Magazine enough for making me sound like I have it all figured out and for this wonderful opportunity. There is so much goodness and advice for couples packed into this little gem; I feel so honored to have played a part in it.  Happy Friday guys!!
