My Mother and relatives gave me a large frame, full of baby pictures of my husband and of me. They left a blank space in the middle for our baby. I still like looking at it to see the resemblances as my son grows.
Also, at the shower everyone there filled out a book with their guess of
- baby’s birthday/time
- boy or girl
-weight
It was fun to go thru after and see who guessed the closest.

First off, only Hollywood movie starts spend tens of thousands of dollar on flowers. I have been to many weddings and no one has spent that much.

Sorry, but I DO love real flowers. It can be something as simple as 1 rose in a vase with some greens:

http://www.stmarymercy.org/estorePhotos/giftshop001.jpg

OR….a bowl with a few floating flowers:

http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2714/4399302077_2fa0c01a50.jpg

Now, you asked about alternatives. Well, the most common alternative for centerpiece decorations other than flowers are candles:

Run an internet search on the different flags of South America.

http://www.world-flags.info/Americas/South_America/southamerica.html

Print them on small place cards and write a guest’s name on each one, setting it at the place they will be seated.

Instead of using napkins, table cloth and centerpiece that are traditional autumn colors, choose the colors of a favorite flag that you found. For example, if you liked the colors of Argentina’s flag, you could use a light blue table cloth, with white napkins and gold napkin rings and a centerpiece that incorporates those colors.

I’m sure if you did an internet search for traditional foods from the different countries, you might be able to find a few appetizers or drinks that are indiginous to each and your guests can sample them. (Most grocery stores have ethnic food aisles, where you may also find candies and nuts from south america…I know Joey is very fond of a certain mexican candy that his friend Jesus brought to class to share.)
Good luck with your dinner lovely!

A license is your best bet, but you might want to look for an interior design class or workshop. You may want to do a few “freebies” for publicity and to build a reference list and a portfolio.

For a small office, I think a flat fee ($50 to $350) is not too much. If I were the office manager/owner, I would expect an initial consultation and a formal proposal, including a drawing and paint samples, fabric samples, carpet samples, etc. I would be a very unsatisified customer if I paid $200 for a picture from a magazine paired with the suggestion to remove the current wallpaper and paint the walls blue. I think a large office would be leary to hire you because you do not have a license.

For a home, I think a rate of $15 to $25 / room for an in home consultation seems fair. I would still expect to see a semi-formal proposal or a drawing/floorplan and samples. You could also charge an hourly rate or a flat rate, depending on the homeowner. Many homeowners would be willing to pay just for a fresh perspective and for different ideas.

I threw my son one a few years back, and we used large boxes to make “booths”. One or two sides would be cut out and each would have a different game. Dart & Balloons (this depends on the age of the kids!), “milk-bottle” bean bag toss (can use the little water bottles filled with rice), win a goldfish (actually more inexpensive than you think-use different glasses, vases, bowls, etc.).

You can write the invitation on helium-filled balloons with a sharpie and let her invite kids from school or close by.

On a tight-budget? Cut out invitation on cardstock in the shapes of tents like “The Big Top”. You can fold it over. Use markers, glitter, fun sayings, “Ladies & Gentlemen, Boys & Girls, Dogs & Cats”. Let your daughter get involved-they will love it.

Good luck & have fun!

In English Country style, you’ll see fabrics with florals, especially roses, along with plaids and stripes. The colors are sometimes faded. French Country fabrics have saturated colors like brick red or golden yellow, and one common design is to have a small repeated element (maybe paisley, or a small bouquet) that is bordered by a color that makes it stand out from the background. Another common French design is toile, a solid color fabric with a drawing in a second color, repeated over and over. Occasionally toile is multi-colored.

French Country wood furniture has gently curved carvings, while English furniture has straighter lines. French furniture and accessories might have scrolled ironwork. English Country style features a lot of wicker furniture, and bamboo. Both will use cane. English upholstered furniture might have button tufting, turned legs and casters.

On the walls in an English room, you’ll find framed botanical prints, or other nature prints like seashells or insects. Paintings might be horses or dogs. French rooms are more likely to have paintings of farm animals or birds, and tapestries. Both styles can have paintings of landscapes.

Teapots and lace are examples of decor in English Country rooms. Walking sticks and canes would be nice in a more masculine room. Books are good everywhere. Country French rooms look good with fruit, because they’re filled with fruit colors.

Ralph Lauren has an English Country collection here:

Well to start with a gaming teen boy will most likely not care what his decor is, unless it directly affects his gaming, or is game related… (well none that I have met care anyway) so I wouldn’t go toooo far with decorating, leave the walls neutral, and put these up, I know it is old now, but they’re so old they’re now retro kitsch
space invaders wall decals (they also come in pacman) http://www.patriciafield.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=354
Unfortunately this thing is only avail in eastern europe, but WOW! http://blog.wired.com/gadgets/images/2007/10/18/2battleprobig_2.jpg
back to reality though, for bedding I’d just use a totally plain cover that will wear well, the focus isn’t about a bed cover in this room, so patterns or designs would be overbearing, unless of course he finds one he is crazy about??
For some great gaming seating target has lots but check this one out, its a sound lounger that is compatible with any audio device… http://www.target.com/Blue-Pyramat-Sound-Lounger-PM550/dp/B00069FEZ6/sr=1-2/qid=1216943582/ref=sr_1_2/602-9342378-8675002?ie=UTF8&index=target&field-original-keywords=Pyramat%20PM220%20Sound%20Rocker&rh=k%3Apyramat%20pm550%20sound%20rocker&page=1

For all your other furniture I still think IKEA covers everything teens need, http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/categories/departments/youth_room but to suit your theme, I’d start with the gaming accessories and then match the furniture, bedding and walls etc, for a cool take though, these lighting strips look fantastic (and if he’s gaming overhead light isn’t a great idea) http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/50119407
I’d also use something like the tupplur roll blind to block out light, http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/categories/departments/youth_room/10701/
and these glass globes look fantastic alone or on top of a little ikea light (can’t remember its name but glass globe and light cost me about $20 together) and really look amazing in a darkened room.. http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/90065662

If you’re making your royal icing with meringue powder, it can sit out on the kitchen counter (covered so it doesn’t dry out) for a couple of weeks. I have some on my counter that I made last Friday, and I’m going to use it today to decorate more cookies.

Your royal icing run outs would be perfectly fine if they were made ahead of time. If you’re using pink it might fade, so it would be best to store them where there’s no light (but don’t stick them in the oven, you’ll forget).

I love candy themes!

Here are some ideas:

candy buffet table-complete with candy canes, peppermint bark, bouquets of rock candy sticks, chocolate, lollipops, jelly beans, etc.

drink table- i would use punch bowls for all the drinks! egg nog, spiked punch, regular punch, sodas (keep in cans)

dessert table: gingerbread cookies, cakes, chocolate fountain with fruit for dipping

maybe you could have one of those arches they use at weddings for photos but decorate it with ornaments, christmas tree boas, gingerbread men, candy, etc.

I would choose 1 or 2 base colors for the whole theme, like for example, if you like hot pink, make it a hot pink and white christmas celebration, have white christmas trees, white christmas tree boas for the arch way, use fake snow (like cotton, you can get it at michaels) and pour glitter to make it look real, then all the food, decor and ornaments make pink/purples/sparkly

hope this helps!!

Knowing nothing of Kettering, OH, I can only tell you what I would do where I am located.

First, ask all of your friends the same questions you have asked us. Friends are a great resource. Next, look through the Yellow Pages.

You know how to get on to the Internet, use it. Use Google and search for “Kettering, OH”, “party supplies”, “decorating”, “rentals” – things like that.

When you get a list of suppliers, check with your local Better Business Bureau. Also, get a good contract.

Good luck.

Witches brew. It’s a delicious drink you can use either as a drink or as a dessert. I got introduced to it through one of those Halloween sampler recipe cookbooks you find at the check out counter nearly ten years ago and now it’s become a tradition that I have to have it at least once during October as a part of my Halloween. One of my sisters threw a party which she invited me to and asked me to make this for her guests who were all mid-twenties to early thirties and I had folks asking for the recipe so they could make it at home. The basic recipe is

“2 cups apple cider
1 1/2 to 2 cups vanilla ice cream
2 tablespoons honey
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg

Process cider cider, ice cream, honey, cinnamon and nutmeg in food processor or blender until smooth. Pour into glasses and sprinkle with additional nutmeg. Serve immediately. Make 4 (6-ounce) servings.

Prep Time: 10 minutes

Serving Suggestion: Add a few drops of desired food coloring to ingredients in food processor to make a scary brew.

Lighten Up: To reduce fat, replace vanilla ice cream with reduced-fat or fat-free ice cream or frozen yogurt.”

You can make the extra nutmeg optional. And color wise it’s going to be a creamy brown.

Also look at the samplers, they offer you a lot of ideas for things to serve. Like Backbones, simply a tortilla wrap that’s sliced up and then stacked to look a little like a backbone. Or Grilled Cheese Jack-o-Lanterns, their actually a baked grilled cheese sandwich which you cut a jack-o-lantern face into one side. Mummy Dogs, hot dogs wrapped in breadstick dough with one end slightly out which you then place dots of mustard on for eyes after baking

Royal Blue is the perfect color with white for your theme!

You can go to a fabric store and purchase remnants
(these are pieces of fabric that are left on the bolt
that they are trying to get get rid of. Them mark them
down considerably. I got material that was $40.00 a
yard for $4.99 a yard) of shiny satins or sheer materials
in royal blue & white. Drape these over the windows
and different areas of your party room. Measure the
table you will serve your refreshments on & have
them cut a piece for the table too. Inexpensive
table cloth. Material can drastically change the look
of a room. Also purchase white & blue balloons
in pear.l (This type of balloon is super shiny). They
usually have them plain or with patterns like Happy
Birthday or with stars. Any of these would look nice.
You can either tie a few to windows or create a
few balloon bouquets (You can get these inexpensively
at a dollar stores). This would be simple & elegant.

You can either do a cupcake tower…they are amazing,
or you can find pictures of the Cirqur du soliel online
& print them out. Take it to a bakery or even a super
market. They can scan your picture on icing and put
it on your cake.

For refreshments…keep it simple & elegant: Finger
sandwiches, punch (serve in a punch bowl with
little cups or they have fancy stemware. Get this at
a party supply store. They don’t cost much) . Also
serve a tray with cheese, crackers & pepperoni as
well as a fruit platter.

All that you need now is the right music. Also rent
a couple of new releases at the video store. (if
you get sick of dancing you can watch some movies).
Also have a few games. Charades, truth or dare,
Balderdash or some game where you learn things
about each other. Or you can rent a Karioke machine.

You have the makings of a great sweet sixteen!

Just putting the lights on the tree every year. I’m a perfectionist and the cord isn’t allowed to show at all, LOL. It’s my own fault for being that way so I can’t complain that it took me 3 hours to do it last night and I’m still not finished. I had to go buy some more today b/c some quit working; I expect it to take another hour or so. [Sigh]

The year before last my hubby put the lights up outside & detailed the entire roof. Then, he left for Iraq and left me to take them down. I climbed the ladder & got on the roof, did my thing and then went to go down the ladder, only to realize it was knocked down. Luckily, I only had to wait about 10 minutes for one of my neighbors to come outside.

I’m a big fan of etsy, where you buy from independent artists.

Not knowing your colors or themes, it is hard to make a suggestion. But remember to either go very big or get a grouping of similar objects. Prints and other artwork generally look better if they are framed with a white matte, unless they are ready to hang canvases.

A few ideas:
Nice for an earth toned room: http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=25474219
Nice for a room that already has some lime green: http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=25895805
A grouping of prints from this artist would look nice in a traditional room: http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=5799581

(the artist is on vacation until August, but you can look through her sold items. I know she will also make 11×14 versions, which would do a better job of filling up that wall)

Another thing I like is vintage travel posters. I really prefer ones from places you’ve already visited so they have personal meaning. All posters will also custom frame it for you.

Country style is the easiest to do on a budget. You can make may of the items yourself.

You can make a beautiful wreath for the front door, with things found in your yard, and a pretty ribbon.

Pick wild flowers for vases. Or press them and frame them. Or hang and dry them for permanent boquets.

Any of the Victorian crafts would work too, ie, braided ribbons to cover a picture frame that is not “country style.

Country Style pictures can be cut from magazines, such as a beautiful rooster or a funny pig, and be framed.

Places like A.C. Moore have thousands of reasonably priced items. Use them alone or in a project.

Also, yard sales and flea markets are a great resource too.

The ideas are endless. Just use your imagination.

Most importantly though, Enjoy !

First, most balloons will last all day, and longer… they don’t lose air that quickly. If you’re thinking about any helium in them lasting all day though, that’s a bit different… though they will stay blown up a long time, the helium will dissipate more quickly, probably after a day. The only way to keep them up as high as possible once they begin to come down is to lessen the weight you have on them or attached to them.

If the balloon was perfectly round, it’s possible that a “weather balloon” was used, and they are available online at least. There may be other totally round balloons available at party shops too, and many may be fairly close to round if not blown up fully or if blown up fully, but don’t know about that.

There are many ways to decorate balloons. You can use markers but may have to go over the lines a few times to make them opaque enough.

You can use tapes of various kinds (masking tape, electrical tape, duct tape, etc.). Duct tape is sticky enough that you’d want to place it correctly the first time though, because may not be able to pull it off without popping some very blown up balloons.

You can also “hot glue” onto the balloon’s surface strips or shapes of paper, yarn, or other materials or items, but you must use a LOW TEMP hot glue gun (…a high-temperature hot glue gun could be hot enough to pop the balloon, though you could try extruding some glue then letting it cool a bit before placing on the balloon if that’s all you have).

As for lighting, don’t know how easily you could put a light or lights inside a balloon but at any rate you’d want to use the cool lights like LEDs or mini-Christmas lights (rubber is fairly heat tolerant, but those put out almost no heat at all).

It’s possible that you could even buy a very small LED light (like for a keyring, etc,), turn it on, and drop it into a large balloon before blowing it up… it should last many hours, but you may not be able to control the direction of the light (and the “white” LED’s are often a bit bluish, etc.).

If you’re using helium though, you’d have to consider any weight you added.

Otherwise just placing a wad of xmas mini-lights under the balloon (and hiding them in some way) could work… or you might even be able to string the mini-lights underneath the black tape to hide them, but the light would still be shining into the interior of the balloon.
