Valentine’s Day Party.

 Today seems like an appropriate day to share all of my Valentine’s Day girl’s night pictures. We had tons of fun, but then again, how can you not when the champagne is flowing and the cupcakes are stacked high? I’m still recovering from my sugar-high, I think Valentine’s Day dinner tonight will have to be [...]

Good as gold.

When it comes to entertaining, most of my dishes and glassware are white and clear, then I can have fun with accessories and linens to switch up the theme. I think that gold is the new neutral and is also a perfect backdrop for lots of color combinations too. Plus a touch of sparkly metallic makes [...]

Too pretty for eating.

Eddie Ross is a genius. This table setting is so phenomenal, I would genuinely feel bad eating off those plates. I love it so much, I want to frame it — or at least start scavenging etsy for some French opaline glasses. Check out his how-to on his blog!

NYE – Part 3

Just a few more pictures of my lovely party to share and then I’m ready to kick of 2010 with a bang. I’m bad at keeping new years resolutions, but this year I’m going to try really really hard to care less about what people think of me. Easier said than done! And I’m also [...]

NYE – Part 2

My mom gave me some crafting materials for Christmas, and among the presents was a Martha Stewart Pom-pom kit. I have wanted to use these at a party for-ev-er, and was so excited to hang them from the ceiling for NYE. Unfortunately the ceilings in my ancient apartment must have 30 layers of lead paint [...]

NYE – Part 1

I threw a mean NYE party, if I do say so myself. So mean in fact, that I didn’t have the energy to post about my crafty decorations until January 2nd, but better late than never! My first DIY decoration was metallic flower vases, and they were so simple. I started by wrapping some old [...]

Countdown to midnight.

I’m getting really excited for New Years Eve; I’m hosting a party at my apartment for a few of my friends and I’ve been scouring online for ideas. I’m on a budget so I have a few DIY decorations that I will share once they’re in place. In the meantime, here are some of the images that [...]

Bloody cute.

Disclaimer: I am NOT a Twihard. BUT, I did get invited to a New Moon movie party and had fun last night with some other vampire-obsessed gals. I have to share the hostess’ smart party idea… she melted down red candies and rimmed the top of the cocktail glasses with candy “blood.” How cute are they? [...]

Triple threat.

Triple the cocktails, triple the fun! I’m totally amazed that A) this exists, and B) someone  didn’t think of this sooner. What a helpful tool for pre-mixing multiple signature cocktails for a holiday party. My old carafe method seems a little less innovative now! Trio Beverage Dispenser via Z Gallerie

A festive milestone.

It’s time to celebrate, this is my 100th post! Just eight short months ago I started DomestiKatedLife and let me tell you, it’s getting more fun with each click of the ‘publish’ button. So I thought for the big 100 I’d share some eChampagne and decorate with tissue pom-poms. I adore the Martha Stewart pom-pom [...]
