Family Fun Night - Inspiration Board

 

Family Fun Night it is where all families come together to have fun. Families of all ages. Last time we held a family fun night we had different stations setup for games, arts and crafts, a talent show and TONES of food. This year Family Fun Night is going Around the World!

My vision is to create a market place and each country have their own "booth" as it were. We are not selling anything, each booth will offer activities, arts and crafts, games and food from each country. They will also teach greeting from their language and serve tastings of their food. All will be encouraged to dress up from another country and learn about that country.This should be exciting! Below is my inspiration board for this event in May!

Retro Updos

These two updo's are STUNNING! I can't wait to rock them. I love the shaping of the hair. 

These two pictures are very good protective styles.

I received a sample of the Frizz Ease line (you guys know how much I LOVE FREE SAMPLES). I finally had a chance to use it when I straightened my hair for my length check in February. I only used the Hair Serum and only a nickle size amount of the product. I really liked it. My hair came out very well. The product lasted a long time, I had my hair straight for 3 weeks. Frizz was no problem. My hair was very polished, smooth and shiny, I attribute that to this product and the techniques I used. I will definitely use this product again.

Question of the Week

What is your favorite Leave in Conditioner?

Soiree - Japan

Center of Attention - Inspiration

All of these pictures are from The Knot.   These centerpieces bring something different to the table (hahaha). This is what I like about the and point you can take home to your table.

1. Tall vase with my favorite Orchids draws the right amount of attention to the table.

2. Love the color combination and the leaf wrapped around the vase.

3. Once again a tall vase of orchids. I think they are beautiful. The water intensifies the color.

4. BOLD RICH Color in a flower pops right off the table. Orchids are placed just right in the vase so they hang over slightly. To get them to stay you can glue them to the side of the vase. Or place clear string on the steams and anchor them with rocks.

5. You know Orchids are my flower and since the Soiree is coming up of course I am looking at more and more Orchids. These Orchid panels really inspire me, especially since I saw something at Acemoore that is wall art that can be removed easily and relocated hmmm.... I will share more on this later.

6. Variation of color and size, pops off of the table. Table is too crowded for me personally. Make sure you don't over decorate. You do not what you guest rearranging the table to maximize their space.

7. The white on white is breathtaking. The way the orchids are hanging out of the vases and not sunk in them is nice as well.

8. The accessory at the bottom of the vase catches my eye. You can find scrapbook paper, napkin, ribbon that has a bold print that ties into your theme.

9. Simplicity. Black and White is so classic, the paired the right share of pink. I also like the idea of 3 small centerpieces and a couple of candles on the table, seems cozy and not too overpowering

Curly Puff

Need:
1.apply your favorite curling product to your hair
2.apply gel to your edges smooth the hair down]
3. Stocking / Sturdy String same color as your hair

 

 

 

1. Place a stocking /sturdy string arocss the front of
your head taking and tieing it in the back.

2. Once ties in the back bring both ends to the front. Shift your hands back and forth until the string/stocking moves backwards and your hair starts to get smaller into a puff

3. Secure the puff to your desired size and hold. then tie the ends of the string/stocking in the back and tuck under.
