I brought the bride to be a goody bag, stuffed with fun things for our girls’ weekend away!
a bit of bubbly with personalized, waterproof wine labels…
plastic cups to SHARE her bubbly…
a 6 pack of “Go Girl” energy drinks…
a 4 film favorite CD collection from Target, only $4.99!
some sassy, Liberty of London (for Target) lingerie…
all wrapped in tulle to make the gift feel very bridal. such fun, can’t wait for the big bash on Saturday!
My best friend (since I was born!) just eloped to Fiji! We were sad to not attend the barefoot on the beach ceremony, but now excited to host a rippin’ reception at our home this weekend! We have been in home improvement modefor weeks, and everything is finally coming together at the last minute.
As mentioned in a previous post, we are remodeling a bathroom that will literally be done the day before the big fun. We are printing the wallpaper in my shop today and a pro will be hanging it tomorrow!
After the paper is hung, my handy man is coming back to install the fixtures, including my fun sink/vanity that I designed from scratch. I need to add a third coat of paint tonight, these “ball” legs are not easy to cover but I think the end result will be worth all the labor.
I will post photos after the big party, but have a sneak peek of an Outdoor Canvas we are printing for the newlyweds!
We are printing it now and will coat it with a UV Protectant so it can hang outside for years to come. A great way to personalize a pool area or balcony, i think the couple will be surprised and thrilled to take home this party favor.
the clock is ticking…still so much to do!

We were so honored to work with the LA KINGS to come up with a special way to show appreciation to the women & wives in their organization. We created a pack of personalized Gift Labels for each gal, but then decided it would be best to LET THEM CHOOSE from the collection. Our new “too legit to quit” GIFT CARDS are the perfect gift for anyone this season. Choose our “enjoy” card or let us create something custom for your organization. The $50+ cards come in a fabulous collapsible gift box.
My team and I went to the LA KINGS game that week and had an absolute blast…I had never been before and I am seriously hooked! The music, the hype, the action on the ice…my kids loved every minute too. We proudly displayed our entire Breast Cancer Awareness collection and donated sales that night to HOCKEY FIGHTS CANCER.
I love to brag about my nieces…they are absolutely hilarious, brilliant, imaginative, precious & darling – TIMES TWO. I can say all these things since they aren’t “really” mine. (Yes, twins are everywhere in our family!) Since we live a bit more than an hour away, I like to send happy packages or style them with fun treats to let them know that “auntie” is thinking of them always. (they call me “color wonder auntie” since I am always changing my hair color. ha!) They are excited to deliver treats to their school friends this year with spooky stickers that are (of course) personalized. I’ll be using the “boo” labels on the bubbly I’ll be bringing to the block party this year!
have a happy, spooky, treat-filled night on the 31st! ~erin
we just love seeing the creativity flow when our customers throw parties of their own! check out the lastest from special customer, Drew, when she celebrated with her birthday with her pals & pizza in the park. (say that 10 times fast) We created the invitation with all the fun details she had planned, then her mom had the cupcakes decorated to match! too cute!
"buttons" invitation designed especially for Drew!
we would love to see any photos you might have that will enlighten and inspire our bloggers. just email us your pics to info@erincondren.com and let us know you’d like to share your photos or ideas.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO DREW!
What circus themed blog would be complete without a post about trapeze? Ladies and gentleman, girls and boys, direct your gaze to the center ring.
A friend of a friend, Chanel Durelli, is an ariel artist. She teaches and performs trapeze professionally in the Los Angeles area. Always up for a little adventure we decided to attend a class and now we’re hooked, literally, by our knees, legs, anything! Hold on for dear life and try to look graceful while doing it. It’s quite a challenge, an exhilarating experience and an exceptional workout.
For those who prefer to leave it to the seasoned pros don’t miss your traveling or local circus troop. Many can be hired for events. What better way to liven up a party than to have people swinging from the rafters?
die cut faces of each first lady and details of their influence on our nation
My grandmother just turned 90 and we wanted to celebrate her in a very special way! I was inspired by a favorite find from years ago, a die cut “fandex” illustrating the first ladies of our nation. It made me think how my grandma is OUR first lady, and although she is not famous, she is every bit as fabulous. So, as her biggest “fans” (pardon the pun, had to say it…), we decided to create “face fans” from favorite photos of her past and present. We scanned old photos as large as possible so the printed files could be “life size”, then cut out each face and taped them to large tongue depressers (popsicle sticks would be fine too.) She was so surprised and delighted and the kiddos had a blast with the idea! I made a few sets of the fans so people could take them home as party favors….now, what will we do for her 100th birthday?? Hoping Willard Scott will be able to attend! ha!
