Celebrations at Home – Featured Guest
April 23, 2010 by Shelley
Am I the only one dreaming in PARTIES lately?! I have my twins’ 1st Birthday in May, my little guy’s birthday in July, and my husband’s 30th this summer. Fortunately I have found enough inspiration for parties for the next,…say,…50 years. Seriously! I want to try sooo many different party themes! My little boy is going to kill me when I throw his 18th birthday and it’s a Surprise ‘Pirate Party’ or something. Ha!
So many ideas, so little time!
‘Celebrations at Home’ is one of my treasures for party inspiration! It’s seriously a GOLD MINE! Chris Nease is the most amazing party designer whose main goal is to bring ‘big event style’ to smaller scale celebrations.
Can you just taste this dessert table she created for her Red & Chocolate themed Party?! I love the rich colors…
She just created the most gorgeous Modern Safari Girls Night Party with more detailed pictures on her site…
and how about this 40th outdoor dinner party? I love how she made it masculine, yet whimsical for a 40 year old MALE…
And of course she make the most gorgeous inspirational boards for a small fee. How fun to have a virtual party planner!
I’m loving this inspiration board for a HORSE themed birthday party…
and who knew a BACKYARDIGAN themed party could be so adorable?!
Anyways, I could go on forever. Hop on over to Celebrations At Home and see for yourself. Chris also highlights other’s gorgeous parties, so there is always something new to see.
Small parties are starting to get more detail oriented and I am loving it! I’m so glad that there are incredible party blogs like Celebrations at Home to give me a jump start for inspiration! Chris, I just know that we would be best friends in real life and that you would throw me the most spectacular BFF party right?!

I am in total party planning mode as well. I have the twins, my nephew and hubbie to plan for. Although the twins have already “told” me what their party will be and that they want their “own” parties this year….YIKES. I just posted the other day my inspiration board for my little punk’s Lego Indiana Jones Party! Hope you like it!
