Welcome back for day 2 of our Take Five series. If you missed yesterday’s great projects you can check them out here. Today I am joined by my dear Cassie of hi sugarplum! and the sweet sweet Michaela from Michaela Noelle Designs. Let’s get started! Idea #1: Personalized Drink Tags If you have been with me for a while, than you know that I love all things personalized. And I have a little rule that when I entertain I like to have at least one thing that has a personal touch. It is so super easy and makes guests feel special. You can either hand write these tags or print names on the computer. After cutting your tags, simply hole punch and slip a fun ribbon through. I know that there are a million darling wine charms out there, but there is something fun about having the names on the drinks. Not to mention it is free and only takes five minutes. Don’t ever throw away your scrap pieces of ribbon. They are great for this. I like to have the names ready to go and sitting in a pretty glass nearby so that guests can easily find their name. The font I used for these is called Suzy’s Hand. It is one of my favorite’s that Megan introduced me to because it looks like someone wrote the names out. Idea #2: Inexpensive and Quick Room Art Miss Cassie from hi sugarplum busted out some amazing art for her daughter’s room. It instantly added great color and pattern to her gallery wall. Being the smarty pants that she is, she used glossy Madeline Weinrib {one of my all time favorites!} ads to create these. She took out the existing text and added her own. You can read Cassie’s full post right here. And because Cassie is a rock star, she has provided me with the three prints that you can use to make your own. If you would like them, shoot me an email and I can forward them to you {I tried to make them downloadable . . .but to no avail!} Idea #3: Mason Jar Vases
……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… And I am thrilled to be dishin’ on one of my favorite designer’s {Tobi Fairley} over at Laura’s gorgeous blog. Have you seen Laura’s art and design blog? She is beyond talented. I give you the skinny on a what I find to be Bright, Bold, & Beautiful. Go check it out.

OMG! I LOVE that mason jar! My mom and I were just looking for a project we could use our old earings on (you know, the ones that only have one left and you can't find the matching pair?) THIS will be the perfect embellishment for the mason jar vase! LOVE IT!
