Margot's Lemonade Stand 5th Birthday Party

I was pretty thrilled when my 4 year old declared that she wanted to have a lemonade stand birthday party! We got right to work having my husband build a stand and beginning party prep. Her birthday is in October, and luckily we had beautiful weather for an outdoor party! Here's what we threw together:

This party was also featured on the Hostess with the Mostess blog, and you can hop over there to read more about how we put it all together.

Photo Shoot With Nicolle From Libby Lane Press

We love to get new products in and ask our friends and customers if they'd like to try them out and see how they like them! One of the best parts about our work is that we are creating something that people use to transform their events and photo shoots into something that's just really amazing. The way people style our products blows me away! 

Nicolle from Libby Lane Press took some absolutely amazing shots of our products! See for yourself:

You can find the party pack with our Enjoy! ice cream cups, spoons, and scoops here.

Blank Slate

It's almost here, the day we get to move into our new studio space!

I first rented space for Sucre Shop just under 2 years ago. I was so scared about the overhead and the commitment that I would only sign a 6 month lease. Then when that lease was up, I signed another one. Finally, I signed for a year. I tried to be conservative with space and costs, but we now have had around 10 people (sometimes a few more, sometimes a few less) crammed into 3 rooms. We need space for our retail department, wholesale department, shipping department, graphic designers, backstock, storage, and of course a lunch room. So, we have basically been busting out of here, even with the additional storage space we started using a few months ago.

No more! Check out our new space!

 So many questions! How should we decorate? Should we have classes and parties here? Would love to hear ideas from you! If you have any, leave them here!

Valentine's Ideas

I LOVE Valentine's day, and am totally ready to kick it off as soon as a new year begins. If you have stocked up on any of our little spoons or scoops, or have left overs from a party, or if you want to hop over an pick out your favorite new design, we have some ideas for you to use them for Valentine's treats!

The top jar is filled with Starburst minis. I love the colors, they are like sweet little mosaic tiles. The second photo uses mini cereal boxes, and the bottom idea is for packages of hot cocoa.

I actually really love handwritten notes on Valentine's day, but we also have lots of fun free printables on our pinterest board. I am just crazy about our Valentine's pin board, everything is so pink and heart-y!

Let's great ready... can't wait to show you more of what we have in store for your Valentine's.
