Harvest Crowns with The Foxglove Studio

Thanksgiving is just a couple of days away! Can you believe it? Lauren's hosting this year and Claire is off to visit family. It's such a busy busy time with last minute grocery shopping, prepping, and baking! What are your plans for the holiday?

Typically we don't really decorate our homes or style elaborate tablescapes for Thanksgiving. The table fills up quickly with place settings, platters, bowls, and different spreads - there just really isn't extra room for anything else. But when we're hosting a holiday or even just a small dinner party, it's important to create an environment that feels welcoming, looks beautiful, makes our guests feel special, and puts them in the party spirit! So this year, we're partnering with The Foxglove Studio to look beyond the table. Forget your traditional floral centerpiece and try your hand at festive harvest crowns for everyone to enjoy!

Supplies //

•  Floral Wire

•  Clippers

•  Flowers/Greenery - visit your local flower shop or market to see what flowers and greenery are in season and pick whatever catches your eye.

Untwist a section of your floral wire. Take your flowers/greenery, clip off pieces, and place them into small groupings. Grab a small group and twist the floral wire around the bottom of the greenery two to three times. While working down the wire, repeat these steps - occasionally measuring your crown to see if it fits your head. Adjust greenery positioning as needed. Once the crown is to size, cut the wire and attach the two ends together. 

So easy and super cute, right? Thanks Foxglove Studio for helping us create the perfect Thanksgiving  decorative accessory.

The Foxglove Studio + For Real Meals

A few weeks ago, we had the extreme pleasure of attending a brunch hosted by Caitlin Kerr of The Foxglove Studio as part of the For Reals Meals series put on by Jessica Murnane of One Part Plant.  If you're not familiar with Jessica and her plan to spread the good word about a healthy and happy lifestyle through a plant-based diet you've got to check her out! She share's all the best recipes and is just a generally warm and funny lady. And if you're not following Caitlin on Instagram (we gushed all about her lovely feed here) then you're seriously missing out. Not only is she darling but she's like whoa talented and her loft studio space is awe inspiringly airy and beautiful.

So you're probably wondering just what exactly is For Reals Meals? Here's how Jessica describes it...."I choose a host that doesn't eat a plant-based diet. Then they choose a handful of guests that they want to get know better- whether that's someone they stalk on Instagram or some random person they met at a party. They cook an entirely plant-based meal for their guests. Fun ensues and new relationships are formed!" And you guys, it was such a dreamy time! We ate well, drank plenty, met some of the most beautiful and inspiring women, and spent the afternoon talking, laughing, and even tearing up a bit. You know, typical girly brunch stuff. You can read more about the gathering here.

The guest list was just one rad #girlboss after another. Check out these crazy amazing women: designer Jennifer Serafini of Serefini, Kristin of Gather Home + Lifestyle, and photographer Maura Stoffer. All photos were captured by the incredibly sweet Eva Deitch.
