Earlier this week I shared the details of my “I is for Ice Cream” party. It was a fun back to school celebration…made complete with fun, friends, and lots of ice cream toppings! I kept the party decor rather simple, with the focus on the alphabet letter paper I used for the background. With the […]
i is for ice cream
School is officially back in session at our house! Grace, my high school junior, was the first in the family to begin her new school year few weeks ago. We moved Audrey back to college last weekend…and Claire (who is now in fifth grade…WHAT? Fifth grade? Really?) was the last to start just a few […]
minion mix
Well, those lovable little yellow creatures are back again! Yes, the minions are back with another movie…Despicable Me 3 is coming to theaters this Friday! I don’t know about you, but I can’t wait. I think I like those awkwardly cute and lovable creatures more than my youngest daughter (and she thinks they are pretty […]
crafternoon…spring edition
I hosted my first ever CRAFTERNOON a few months ago (click here to see the details of the fun afternoon of crafting, food , and friendship). It was such a success that I decided to host another one…this time with a spring theme. As part of the day, the guests created this vintage-inspired floral arrangements. […]

Really, who can resist those great finds at even better prices… Well, that was the case when I spotted all these fun and colorful pineapple items in […]

We’ve finally entered the month of May, and you know what that means…Cinco de Mayo is just a few days away. I must admit that when I was growing up, I had never heard of the day. Of course, I grew up in Ohio! Now I think most people not only know about this celebration […]
glow in the dark egg hunt
I love Easter egg hunts! I remember hosting my first one many years ago…my oldest (who is now 19) was two years old at the time. We invited her playgroup over for snacks and to hunt for eggs. I thought I was being super organized and got up early to hide the eggs in our […]
hop over for a mimosa
The day that everyone celebrates by drinking green beer (also known as St. Patrick’s Day) has passed, and my thoughts have turned to spring and Easter. In my home, that means adding some festive touches to the decor. If you follow me on Instagram, you know how much I enjoy browsing (and shopping) the dollar […]
fixer upper party…part ii
Yesterday, I shared the party decor for my daughter’s Fixer Upper theme birthday party…click here if you missed it. My inspiration was the HGTV show, which my daughter loves to watch…I kept Joanna’s simple farmhouse style in mind throughout the party planning. Because a kid’s birthday party is all about having fun, I planned a […]

If you follow Polka Dots & Picket Fences on Instagram, you may have seen a few glimpses of my youngest daughter’s tenth birthday party a few months ago. She turned 10 in November, and I can’t believe it has taken me this long to share the details of her party! I was editing pictures from […]
