The celebration for our home’s centennial is just a day away! I’ve been having so much fun with the preparations for this party…I LOVE vintage and this gathering will definitely have an old fashioned flair! Since I don’t have girls, I rarely can add dainty touches to our celebrations unless it’s just for me and my girlfriends! But this time it’s all about the era so I can have some fun with my color choices and floral patterns and not worry a bit if it’s too “girly”! So today I’ve planned to complete the majority of my decorating before my family arrives this afternoon! Even though I will then have plenty of helping hands, it also frees us up a bit to visit and just enjoy the occasion! I sing the praises of planning ahead…it really makes it much easier to be stress free on the day of an event, big or small! AND we can’t control mother nature so I also recommend having an “indoor” backup plan if the party is slotted for outside! It looks like a backup might be needed this weekend so I’m going with plan B for my food setup…which is actually my favorite of the two! So even if it’s not raining, I think I’m sticking with this one…and we won’t have to worry about the bees and flies bombarding the goodies! Since I can set things up in advance inside, I’ll share a peek at my party preparations…
