I took my daughter out from school today to see cherry blossoms in DC. I wanted lots of photos of her smiling around pretty flowers. But, she was not happy at all.

I even packed Tinker Bell costume for her to wear for our photo shoot.

But, she only wanted to wear her bunny ears

Well, we will try again next year. Hopefully she will enjoy it more then.
HAPPY SPRING!

Your photos are beautiful! And your daughter is adorable with her bunny ears. That last photo totally made me smile!
she is adorable!! she looks so cute with her bunny hears. love these beautiful photos! thanks so much for sharing, Sunghee! =)

Here are a few details of how I set up the Hollywood Style Dessert Table.

I used wine glasses as flameless candle and votive candle holders. I loved how everything looked different. =)
Gold metallic spray paint to cover the styrofoam balls.
Ferrero Rocher Hazelnut Chocolates’ gold foil wrap was perfect for this dessert table’s color theme. I put them around the flameless candle on the wide candle holder.
Gold sheer fabric and hot glue gun to cover the flameless candles.
Leftover gold fabric and red metallic shred for vase filler and table cover.
Feathers and silk flowers to make the table look more fabulous. =)
Cut the corners of white cardstock paper and put it on a folded glittery gold cardstock paper for the menu name card.
Here is a touch of movie related item.
Popcorn.
The idea to fill the vase with bags of popcorn came to my head the day before the event. I was going to fill this vase with gold spray covered foam balls. But, the vase was too big and not enough gold balls. I was trying to come up with alternative fillers that were cheap. Thought about filling it with candies since I’ve seen dessert tables with candies in pretty vases. But, it would have been too expensive. Then, popcorn came to my mind. Brilliant! Teeheehee.

I used a muse studio cello gusset bags to fill the popcorn. Tied with Decorative Garland I bought from Michaels. It is a flexible wire so, tying was pretty fast and easy.
Gold and red Decorative Garland for the votive vase filler.
Small and easy decoration, but these little guys definitely added some drama to the table.
I am so glad the lady in red dress (The one who made all the delicious desserts) got the plastic spoons for the chocolate tuxedo cups.
I made the tiny gold ribbons and added black dot sticker (a muse studio) on the spoons as a bow and buttons. A muse studio’s black dots sticker are on thin strips of adhesive. It was very easy to cut 5 or 6 buttons at a time and attach them on the spoons.
The lady in red dress and I added spoons for the Trifles as well.
Cut tiny silk flowers and attached them on the spoons with Zots Clear Adhesive Dots.

I got the Pussy Willow from Trader Joe’s.
Painted pussy willow with gold Stickles Glitter Glue for some sparkle.
It always takes some time to come up with ideas and put things together. But, this is what love to do. I am very thankful that I was asked to create this Hollywood Style dessert table. I can’t wait to decorate some more in the future.

it’s always fun to see how things come together and you are so clever at utilizing what you have, Sunghee! absolutely love all the little details. thanks for sharing and i sure hope that we get to see your work more often! =)
OMG, I cannot believe that you decorated all those little spoons! Every detail is amazing!

If you have been reading my blog for a long time, you might remember New York style dessert table that I created for my kids’ preschool gala and auction 3 years ago.

It was at Bobby Van’s Grill, Washington, D.C., and I got to create the dessert table again this month.

I only did the decoration. The lady in red dress made ALL the yummy desserts. Our kids are in the same preschool class. I’m sorry to tell you. She bakes for fun, so you can’t buy her baked yummies.
The theme for this year’s gala was Hollywood, A Night on the Red Carpet. I thought about using movie props to decorate. But, could not come up with an elegant way to do it. So, I decided to build the concept around the color theme: red, gold, and black. I wanted my dessert table to be fabulous, glamorous, and sparkly without spending too much money.
A mock-up I created at home. I wanted clear glass plates, but they were so expensive. So, I ended up using the same white plates from the last gala and bought 2 round white plates, 3 vases, and 3 candle holders.

I borrowed the gold table cover from a mom from the school. I panicked at first because it didn’t cover the entire table. But, I like how it turned out.![]()

I didn’t feel like I had enough stuff to fill up the table as I did last auction, but everything looked very balanced after I arranged the decorations and plates.![]()

Why didn’t I cover the table sides to hide the clutter!
Oh well. Still looked pretty.![]()

And, it looked magnificient after we put the desserts on the plates!![]()
I wish I took more photos. It got dark fast and lots of people came to see the table after the lady in red dress and I finished setting up.
It was so pretty, if I do say so myself.![]()

I will blog how I made the decorations soon.

hello stranger! gorgeous table and decorations! i can’t believe one lady can bake so much. everything looks so yummy!
You are seriously amazing, Sunghee! I could never bake all this stuff and make so many decorations, each one unique. Please ask the lady in red where she got her dress ’cause it’s gorgeous!
Hi, Sunghee!
It’s been a while since I have seen your last posting.
I am glad you back with this amazing work. Table setting and decoration is not my thing but this looks fantastic.
요 아래부터는 한글로 쓸게요.
성희님, 안녕하세요?
오랜만에 포스팅 올라와서 반가워요. 저번에 아이들 교실 졸업사진? 전시회를
마지막으로 봤던 거 같은데…잘 지내시죠?
전 예전에 성희님이랑 amuse studio 주문으로 연락 드렸던 소피아에요.
요즘도 어뮤즈 컨설턴트 하시는지 궁금해요. 새로 주문도 하고 싶은데…
그때 성희님이 운영했던 포테이토 블로그에서 주문한 비지니스 카드 사이즈
캘린더 친구들한테 기프트로 만들어 주었더니 인기 만발이었어요.
최근에도 2013년 달력 free로 올려주셔서 잘 썻답니다. 감사드려요.
혹 아직도 어뮤즈 컨설턴트시면, 카탈로그랑 스탬프, 잉크패드 주문 하고 싶은데
알려주세요. 컨설턴트 사이트도 있으면 알려주시구요.
전 영어 블로그를 새롭게 만들었답니다. 제 사이트는 아래 http://sjsophia.blogspot.com/
추운날씨에 감기 조심하시구요, 블로그에서 종종 뵈어요. 다음 포스팅 기다려지네요.

Hi everybody! I uploaded Delivery Truck Box template file on Little Potato Studio site.

My daughter drew on the truck. She said it needed some decoration. I agree.

For the truck wheels, I added half pearls on buttons using Crystal Effects (clear dimensional glue) and Stickles for some sparkle.

Wouldn’t this be perfect for packaging Valentine’s Day goodies? =)

Take care, chin goo.
