I was super excited to launch this blog, so I decided to celebrate with a party! And yes, I know I’m a huge dork. Whatever.

I was running around like a crazy person and didn’t take any group photos until after a lot of people had left, sadly. But I think (and hope) everyone had a good time.

Anyway, I had been wanting to host a Stella and Dot party for ages, so I had my good friend Ellen do a trunk show:

Seriously, everything was so cute! And if you’d like to get some for yourself (or your mom — Mothers Day is coming up soon), you can shop my online trunk show.

I made tea sandwiches, two kinds of marshmallows, fruit salad with mint sugar, margaritas and a giant six-layer cake.

I also made some logo cookies as favors.

And don’t worry, all the recipes are coming soon!
