#ATEPartyShop Preview

The fact that I am writing this blog, makes me super nervous and super excited all at the same time! I am FINALLY opening my Etsy Store! I have been talking the talk for over a year now, time to walk the walk;)! I wanted to give a tiny little preview as to what and why I wanted to open a little party shop! 

As a party planner I am constantly wanting to make parties the best they can be, and me personally, I want to *of course* always go OVER.THE.TOP... but, I know that isn't for everyone! It takes a lot of time and money to plan a party, and all the little details can add up! I want to give people a resource to be able to purchase fun party supplies that won't break they bank, and add little details that will make your party special! 

I am taking some of my fun ideas and party decor, and turning them into mini party kits! For example, if you want to make cute favor bags with confetti and washi tape, you don't have to run all around town, or order from 3 places to get the all supplies you need, just hop on over to our shop and order the entire kit...party decor made easy! I plan on introducing new items that play off of #ATE ideas and inspirations a few times a year, and will also be offering custom orders! 

#ATEPartyShop is set to open May 1st, but in the meantime a few shots of what to expect to see in the shop! Thank you thank you to Balee Images for taking such pretty pictures of our supplies! XOX
















Whose ready to shop?!?;)

Hunt and Gather Pop-Up Market

Its been a while since I have been to an event worth blogging about, but the HUNT and GATHER Pop-Up Market preview that I attended last night was AMAZE-BALLS!!!! No seriously, so fun, and if I wasn't working today, I would be back there right now! Old Green Shutters in down town Crown Point put together an amazing display of vendors, food, drinks, and entertainment. 

When I left last night, I was trying to think of how I would describe it and make it sound as rad as it is... but with lack of a better description, its like a vintage circus market, with tarot readers, fire eaters, magicians, music...but with awesome shopping deals and booze and food trucks, and cute little campers and fresh flowers, OH MY! 

Fun things I found(all for under $100)
-vintage coffee cans for flowers/centerpieces
-arrow head bangle bracelet
-vintage glass plates(for my mom)
-homemade dog treats
-vintage baskets
-delicious homemade popcorn
-wallpaper table runners
-placemats
-fresh flowers
-rose gold depression glass dishes
-mini chair stacking game

If you have a chance today GO, I can't say it enough, GO!!!! Its at the Lake County Fairgrounds from 1-8; and not only will you have so much fun, but you will be supporting some awesome local businesses! Win Win!
