My Autumn Brunch!!!

What was supposed to be a Spring graduation turned into a Fall one! I am finally done my Master's program! WOOHOO! I didn't want a graduation party, but I didn't want to not mark the occasion, so I held a small celebratory Autumn Brunch!

I haven't held a party in over a year (gasp!) so I forgot how long everything takes lol... so I didn't get all the details done that I wanted, but I hope you enjoy anyway...

dry goods table...

 Another angle...

 
more shots ;o)



Some of the details...

Drinks with tags - used a planter box I had to hold them!

Cereal dispensers I had, $1 chalkboard from AC Moore's, add a little tag to the milk carafe...
 I took a brown wood frame, dry brushed tan paint on to make it look rustic, then spray painted the glass with chalkboard paint... vala! (don't mind my terrible handwriting lol)


$3 clearance basket turned on it's side give a fun place for rolls...

Simple touches... 

Tied up cinnamon sticks... (from the dollar store!) 


Cinnamon sticks in mason jars for the apple cider punch (wish I had time to put tags on them too!)


Need height? I wrapped books in craft paper and raffia, tada!


Quick leaf hole punch, print out tag and a little twine...


Wrapped champagne (mimosas baby!)

Add citrus to your ice water for a fresh taste and a pop of color!



and of course plenty of hot food, but since they were in buffets... not very interesting to post ;o)
