Kieran's Airplane 1st Birthday (March 5, 2011)
Glamomama Amanda Griffin-Jacob contacted me to do an “airplane-themed” 1st birthday party for her Baby Kieran at the beginning of this year. During our earlier meetings, she proudly shared with me how aviation has long been a part of her family’s history.

Some BOOK WISDOM...
Just wanted to share a snippet from one of my favorite books by Robert Fulghum :)
ALL I REALLY NEED TO KNOW I LEARNED IN KINDERGARTEN
All I really need to know about how to live and what to do and how to be I learned in kindergarten. Wisdom was not at the top of the graduate school mountain, but there in the sand pile at school.

How to do a BABY BIRD THEME (Part 1)
BABY BIRDS are a frequent theme for the party inquiries I get (most of them for baptisms). Something about these delicate feathery creatures and their nests strikes a chord with new moms, and I’ve tried to offer a different treatment each time.

Majolica Majorca Launch (Production Design: June...
Here’s a recent project done in collaboration with my SAGA Events family. Originally slated for last April, the MAJOLICA MAJORCA cosmetic launch (which is a Japanese brand) was moved to July out of due respect for the recent calamity that took place in their homeland.
