I feel like it has been forever since I shared a space in our home.... Ok maybe just weeks ?

As the anniversary of owning our house for a year approaches I am finally starting to feel like it is our home! Don't get me wrong there are still mountains of tools, paint, and misc. laying around reminding us of those projects left undone, but as I sit here with Kirby and Pat I'm reminded that those things can wait.

Its simple living around the Pauls' Cabin tonight and its real life.

This past week I was able to hop into a new store. I had just recently started following @livesimpleshop on Instagram and loved their cute T's.

Soon after I started following them I was seeing little snippets of their adorable store about to open in Carteville, Illinois. Kirby and I are huge on trying to Shop Small or Shop Local whenever we can. I'm excited that we can now add this little shop to our list!

After reading a few of their blogs and meeting the owner, Macey, it is clear that she is very kind and has a servants heart.  This is reflected not only in their merch. but this adorable and powerful prayer wall. What an awesome way to witness to those coming in and bringing Jesus back into businesses. Now all glory to God, who is able, through his mighty power at work within us, to accomplish infinitely more than we might ask or think. Ephesians 3:20

How to Plan the Perfect Bridal Shower.

Facebook now reminds you just how fast time flies with it's memory reminders.  Opening Facebook a few days back reminded me that my wedding shower was already 2 years ago!

Can I just say I had a beautiful wedding shower!!! My mother-n-law and sister-n-law were on point with everything.... and they brought the glitter! bahahaha We have decided that we are now all shower throwing experts.  So here are some ideas from  my shower that will help you throw the perfect bridal shower.

Balloon Decorations for Bridal Showers

Creating a balloon backdrop is a great way to add some fun to your space. Pick up colors that will go with your theme.  Tie balloons to weights at different heights to layer them behind the gift tables or food tables.  (They used rocks and placed them in little popcorn bags that were used on my favor table. But painted blocks of wood work great too.) Aren't the pearly balloons pretty!!!

TIP: Buy your balloons in bulk an then take them to your supermarket like Kroger and schedule to pick them up just a few hours before. They won't deflate then. If you are picking up 50 balloons you may need 2 cars & those with a back hatch work best!

Tip: Use colored napkins to add more color to your tables and layer different colored/material with table clothes for more texture and color. 

DIY Glitter Candles and Mason Jars

Take your jar or candle holder and tape an edge where you want your glitter to be.  Use a cheap paint brush and paint a good amount of Modge Podge in this area.  Then bring on the glitter. Sprinkle glitter over this area. Add lace around the tops of mason jars for a little extra and your choice of flowers.

Tips: Having something your guest can make can be a good ice breaker.  This was also a very cute personal touch for me because at the time I worked at a theatre... so of course we needed popcorn!

 Games for Bridal Showers

Tips: Create your own bingo sheet and write words on balls to shout out between opening presents. (I used golf balls because Kirby is a golfer!) He Said She Said is also fun! If you don't want to make your own you can find cute downloads on Etsy that you can often personalize.

Tips: Provide a bought or designed recipe card in the invitation to encourage the guest to give the bride their favorite recipes. You can also ask them to bring a spice with them. 
I hope these tips and ideas will help you plan your shower! If you want to know how we did any of the decorations not explained in this blog please leave a comment. We would love to post a DIY blog for them.  Thanks for stopping by and as always Stay Sweet,
