This last weekend we had our Clackamas High School baseball auction- the decorating committee has been working on the theme and design since last September. We came up with Lights, Camera, Action specializing in baseball movies with a Hollywood Oscar vibe! We decorated 30 tables of 10, the entry, the bar, a photo booth and the main stage. I've been on this decoration committee 4 years now and every year I'm excited about what we do, but I have to say this year was my very favorite. The auction went well and now this amazing committee is Rock in' and Roll in' ideas for next year! Hope everyone had a wonderful weekend! … [Read more...]

I also added edible glitter on the top to add a little sparkle to the design. So much FUN! I'm so happy to be done, but definitely would frost with Royal … [Read more...]
