INSPIRATION : SUPPER CLUB






My dear friend Jodi recently proposed that we start a rotating supper club, and she went about planning it, and got us all organized so that we could have our very first dinner last night! Jodi made the appetizers, Rachelle brought drinks, I made the main course, Mary Laurel did the side dish and Kohli made dessert. Whoever gets the main course, hosts, so I was happy that most of the flowers from my arrangement (3 weeks ago) were still going strong! I rearranged them in mason jars, threw some fabric on the table, and called it done. It was absolutely wonderful to spend time in the company of creative, enthusiastic, foodie girlfriends, and I can't wait for the next one! Oh, and why is this filed under inspiration? Because I am planning to make adorable little recipe cards for us each to fill out for our contribution each month. That way, everyone goes home with 4 new recipes, and the plan for an entire meal!

  1. Do you have your lovely tissue paper pom-poms up above your table all year round? They look so cute! A rotating supper club sounds like a great idea and very fun, and I'm sure the recipe cards will be the icing on the cake :).

  2. Lyndsay - my husband and I debated for a long time what kind of light fixture we wanted over the table, but then I did yellow poms for a baby shower last summer, and it felt empty when we took them down. In the fall, we swapped them out for cream and grey ones that match the rest of our house. We'll leave them there until we can commit to a light, or until my next party color palette overrules the grey :) They make such a big impact in the space. I have 17 hanging, and it took me forever to get them in the exact right spot!
