Today we’re designed to PARTY with Grace Bonney from the oh-so-popular home and product design website Design Sponge.
We’ll be talking design trends and party planning tips to help get your party planning on the fast-track to fun. She shares what’s hot in centerpieces for the season, and gives the scoop on where she gets her inspirations.
Design*Sponge was declared a “Martha Stewart Living for the Millennials” (NY Times, 2008) and features store and product reviews, city, product, and gift guides, diy projects, before & after furniture and home makeovers, home tours, recipes, videos and podcasts, and trend forecasting.
Party planning has been a hot topic at our house, with our 2-year-old’s birthday next week. Theresa shares tips from her friend’s party planning ideas for toddlers at TableTopsforTots.
We’re also talking about Fall lawn maintenance and what you need to know to make the perfect pergola in your party yard.
Theresa shares a funny story about Mark hunting for candy in cars while out on a run, her recent disappointment with Restoration Hardware’s catalog, and we’re talking about the perfect snow shovel, Matt Blashaw’s idea for re-using an old pallet, and helping you decide between a traditional water heater and tankless.
And, to help clean up after your next swaree, we’re giving away a case of Carpet Stain & Spot Lifter from Blue Magic.
So slip into your favorite party shoes, and get ready to impress your guests.
