Amy with StemParties, shows us how chocolate brown, passion pink and orange make a great combo for a baby girl mod baby shower.

The inspiration behind the theme started with the polka-dot wrapping paper. From there Amy incorporated various decorative items that began to fill out the Mod theme quite nicely!

We love the the easy add-on accessory she used on the 8″ mocha blumeboxes that were filled with a low cut bunch of orange roses! Add some varying sized pink and orange lanterns and cut out polka dot coasters and you have one mod baby beautiful table!

oh-so-mod black and white centerpieces

For a friends 39-again birthday party we wanted to create a modern contemporary table setting and because this wasn’t her first 39th birthday party, we wanted to keep the cost per centerpiece to a reasonable level.

This mod inspired centerpiece was a cinch to create. We started with a black 4” cube ($3.50ea) and adhered our eco-friendly printed ribbons ($1.99 per centerpiece) to each side giving it a crisp boost of contemporary style. Using black and white bird blumebud place card holders ($9/6-pack) adds a classic and personal touch.

Adding lots of greens to these centerpieces also allowed us to minimize the number of flowers required yet still creates a colorful centerpiece.  In this case we allowed each of the guests to take the centerpieces home to enjoy as a party favor, but maybe we should have folded them up and used them for her 39th again party next year…
