A CHARITABLE SUNDAY





This weekend we participated in a wonderful event benefiting a local, Long Island charity.  A few interior designers were asked to decorate tabletops and auction off items for the Junior Welfare League of Huntington's "Camp for Kids".    For 25 years this charity has sent at risk children to summer camp- a happy, carefree time that people take for granted and every child should get to enjoy.  This charity brightens up the lives of many children so we wanted to brighten up the lives of everyone participating in the event yesterday.  That is why we chose the hot pink, white and grey color palette.  Above are some pictures from the set up for the event. 



Obsessed with these kiddies - clearly they were a big help - lol




We had custom placemats made for the event which came out better than we imagined.  Topped with Kate Spade dot dishes and obviously monogrammed napkins. Our flowers were simple - a glass, cylindrical vase in the center of the table with beautiful, white quince and a few, scattered orchids in small terra-cotta urns.  A grey and white large stripe tablecloth trimmed with a gorgeous, knotted samuel & son trim (also used as napkin holders). It was a simple, colorful, happy table - one of my favorites that we've ever done.  We couldn't have done it without Elite Tent & Party Rentals our party planning partners,  Scott & Amanda Schneider (their adorable kiddies are pictured above).  For the best kiddie outfits and outrageous mommy adventures check out Amanda's blog Amanda Beau & Co.
