Snow Day Party

Growing up snow days meant that we had a day off from school to go and play outside in the snow all day. Just because you have grown up doesn’t mean that you can’t enjoy the same snow day traditions as you did as a kid. So next time you see snow forecasted for where you live stock up on some of these snow day treats to be able to host the perfect snow day party.

What would a snow day be without some fun snow day activities. If everyone is up for going outside divide into teams and have a snowman building contest. Here is the snowman that my family built the last time we had a good snow storm come through.
Being out in the cold, and maybe taking part in a snow ball war, will have everyone searching for some warm beverages when they come back inside. Set up a hot chocolate and tea bar for all your guests to enjoy. You can even pull out a bottle of kahlua to turn that childhood snow day treat into a fun adult beverage. 
While everyone is warming back up you can put on a fun wintertime movie and serve some warm treats. Some of my wintertime favorite treats are soup and a warm sandwich, like tomato soup with grilled cheese. If you want to get a little more creative try making some snowman pancakes.
So next time you have a snow day invite a few of your friends over and have a fun snow day together! What is your favorite thing to do on a snow day?

Wedding Wednesday: Emerald

Remember the first time that you watched The Wizard of Oz and you saw your first glimpse of the Emerald City? With Pantone choosing Emerald 17-5641 as the 2013 Pantone Color of the Year you can have your own personal emerald city. Emerald is a stunningly bright and festive shade of green and when in the form of a gemstone can add the perfect wedding sparkle to everything. Check out how you can incorporate this dazzling shade of green into your wedding.

My favorite way to incorporate such a bold color is to use it sparingly throughout the entire wedding design. You can start with all of your traditional wedding whites and then incorporate the emerald green with jewels, ribbons, linens and custom made stationary. 
Small accents like extra greenery in your flowers can add the perfect amount of green to your flower bouquets and table centerpieces. 
I am in love with these emerald accents. Go with emerald shoes for the girls and bow ties for the boys to give the wedding party that extra emerald touch. 
What do you think of the 2013 color of the year? Of course you can’t go wrong with emerald jewels any time of the year so I say the more emerald the better!
