Yellow and Gray Modern Vintage Baby Shower
Shoot, its been so long since I posted, I almost forgot how! I had a tough June, but I'm so ready to move on and jump back into it all! Lets start with this fun baby shower I planned with one of my favorite color schemes yellow and gray. The beehive theme was so fun! I have more details to share, but I can't say it any better than Lisa of Portland's Bloomsberry Floral. She did an amazing job on the floral designs! See her post HERE

I LOVE LOVE Chevron!
I saw this amazing shoot on the Sweet and Saucy Blog and of course I fell in love with all the chevron prints and hot pink chiavari chairs. Gorgeous color scheme and that cake from Sweet and Saucy is the BEST! Check out all the fabulous vendors responsible for this HERE and more pictures.
