I’m so excited today to be sharing a special Christmas project I’ve been planning for several months!
This year I wanted to create an extra special dessert table for a home holiday party. Something to kick off the Christmas season in style! I took my inspiration from some vintage pink pottery I’ve been collecting and then added some color accents of light blue and aqua. As a former florist, I had to include some beautiful flowers, and then some sparkle in the form of both new and vintage ornaments helped complete the design.
Please enjoy my Vintage Pastel Christmas…
Included on the table were…

Vanilla Cupcakes with Cream Cheese Frosting
White Chocolate dipped Oreos (store bought) with custom royal icing transfers (by me)
Decorated Sugar Cookies
Handcrafted Marshmallows (by Fusion Sweets)
Assorted candies
I thoroughly enjoyed exercising my rusty floral design skills and made flower arrangements that included pink roses, pink and white mini carnations, light pink alstroemeria, and seeded eucalyptus. I also tucked in some pretty ornaments along with the flowers.

Your post is beautiful!!! I must have it in my blog…
I'm a full time mom, and adore party planning (unfortunately baking is not my strength). I live in Colombia, where Christmas is very traditional (since we’re catholic), but I like the idea of using a new color scheme (other than red and green) for the decoration.
My blogsite is http://fiestascreativas.blogspot.com/ and I would like to feature your beautiful creation there.
Thanks,

What great inspiration! I would love to see something like this at a "grownup fairytale" winter wedding!
I think my favorite part is the blue snowflake peeking out of the floral arrangement! Swoon.
