Last Friday evening, I participated in Women Supporting Women, an informal showcase of local woman owned businesses, who support each other as well as less fortunate women in our community; a portion of the proceeds benefited NOVACO. The event was successful! I enjoyed talking about parties and celebrations, sharing 'posh in a pinch' tips for summer entertaining and learning how other women like to entertain.
Above is a photo of my display, including a raffle for handmade invitations and a custom event design (or game plan for producing the winner's party of choice).
Here are the 'posh in a pinch' ideas for summer entertaining:
Got gift wrap, tissue paper and scrapbook paper? Then, you have a 'tablecloth', 'table runner' and 'placemat' for your tablescape or food buffet. The design possibilities are endless - and affordable!
Lounge in comfort with beach towel "pillows". Roll towel and wrap with a lei.
Repurpose an old photo frame as a menu display. Incorporate scrapbook paper and chipboard letters for stylish fun.
Garnish your margarita with a lime "marker"! Carve your initial into the lime wedge.
*My Favorite! Create a stylish centerpiece with white daisies submerged in Jell-O! Inexpensive to make, and Jell-O comes in a wide variety of cheerful colors! Let's Party!
These are my favorite 'posh' ideas for summer entertaining; what are yours?
