If you're lucky enough to have access to a barn, host the
hoedown inside. Open the doors and place a long table covered with a red bandanna-print tablecloth in the middle of the space. Set the table with blue bandanna-print napkins and divided plastic plates.

Changing the look of your kitchen table is a great way to affordably update a kitchen. A set of new placemats combined with a few strategically placed candles and a seasonal centerpiece can make a kitchen feel like an entirely different room. To encourage a change of scenery, let's head off to market in search of a harvest themed table.

Last night I went to a fashion party at
Carrots with
FabSugar, and I came across the cutest favor idea: color-coded candy! The boutique always decorates in orange and they carried the theme over to create a gorgeously delectable candy spread. I plan on re-creating the idea for an upcoming party.

Get your team spirit on when planning the look of a
tailgate. I always cheer on my alma mater (
Go Bears!), so blue and gold are the featured colors. Start by setting up a long folding table near the back of your car.

I am so excited for Monday night's
season premiere of Heroes! As with any TV-watching party, make sure your viewing room is clean and comfortable.
Before the show starts offer the
grilled cheese appetizers on a large, black platter.
