{invitation, to go cup, wine bottle from me, painted pumpkins, desserts, candles, picture frame}
Hi friends, sorry about the lack in posting..I’m just keeping super busy! Today I thought I would post about something super fun for me. Since moving back to Wisconsin I have been looking forward to throwing some sort of party. For those who know me, know I am obsessed with parties (weddings, events, any decorated social gathering really). When I lived in NC I never really got the chance to throw a party, so of course now that I am back I am all for it and ready to get the party started. As we know Halloween is right around the corner and it is one of the best parties to throw…just so many ideas and always a good time! With that being said, I will be hosting a halloween costume party this year and focusing on a black on black palette with hints of metallics. I seriously cannot wait, I’ll use chalkboards, gold and metallic painted pumpkins, calligraphy labels, pillar candles, black desserts, vintage frame photo booth, and possibly some sort of fun game. I’m a sucker for decorating and am looking forward to having all of my friends together…dressed to impress of course! I’ll keep you updated!

I like your idea about black on black. I’m hosting my second annual Halloween cocktail party. And am not confident yet on the direction. I’m thinking black and red.
The aesthetic and design of this whole fete is so lovely! Perfectly ghoulish while still staying super classy :)
Thank you Liz, I’m looking forward to the decorating and crafting part :)
Love those pumpkins! I want to come to your partayyy…Dang you for moving away! :)
I want you to come too! I’ll send you an invite just in case you feel like being adventurous!
I am digging the glam pumpkins!
If you make any lovely cocktails for this type of gathering, you should post about it. Just saying.. :)

I’ll think about it, maybe I’ll do a signature cocktail instead of various wines..hmmm
LOVE THIS! Where did you get the invites, the custom wine bottle labels and the to go coffee cups and labels?
Hi Kristen,
Thank you so much, I actually made those items. The invite is my own calligraphy and the cup and wine are a font I purchased, I’m hoping to post more pictures too!
Would you mind sharing the font you purchased? I love everything you have put together. So pretty! cannot wait to see more.
No problem, it was Capistrano I believe.
Thanks!
Hi Lied, it’s cantoni Pro :)
Can you tell me the name of the serif font paired with your calligraphy?
Hi Erin! definitely, it is georgia italic

Do you sell your calligraphy as a font?
Hi there,
Unfortunately I don’t…not yet anyway!
