Easy Table Setting Tips for your Holiday Entertaining

I’m so excited to finally share this holiday table setting how-to that I worked on with the Southsider magazine and my good friend, Kayla Weber Nord. Kayla and I work together so easily and we were immediately on the same page with our vision. It also helps that each have a good collection of table setting materials to use and choose from! We wanted to put together a table setting that was neutral and classic enough for fall, Thanksgiving, Christmas, and beyond but also had a bit of holiday flair.

Creative Collective Mentor + Mix

 We had the most magical evening at our Creative Collective mentor + mix event sharing all about "Business Basics."  The Barn at Springhouse was the perfect venue for this event and I love how we were able to set up the small group sessions around palette tables throughout the barn and beautiful surrounding grounds.  We had a lot of returning attendees from our first event and some new faces as well!  Huge thanks to the venue and vendors, The Barn at SpringhouseAmendment 21 Event BartendingZachary Brady DesignsKara ShepherdJoe Dean Hinkle, and Crank & Boom Craft Ice Cream!  Be sure to scroll through all our photos from the event below (all photos by On a Whim Photography).
