The celebratory summer event for my mom’s birthday was a burst of inspiration from the Midwest.

I started the tradition of hosting a luncheon each year for my mom’s birthday, as one of her annual memories with dear friends & family. This year I let our “Instagram Followers” pick the event design look. The choices were: Rustic Strokes, Elegant Starlight, Sunset Burst and Modern Oasis.

The design looks I created were inspired by the beautiful scenery of the Midwest and the vacation spots we all want to escape to during the hot, humid summer months! Each design look included a table runner & napkins from BBJ Linens, a tabletop floral and 6″ slicing cake.

This event was a reminder to each of us, that it is up to us to create our life’s memories. Whether big or small, public or private, elaborate or simple, events are important to each of us as a reflecting moment to celebrate what is.

I am grateful to have created a lasting memory in her life, through a burst of inspiration. In Honor of My Mom’s Birthday August 13, 2019.
