***Press*** ~ A To Zebra Celebrations' TV Segment ~

I've been wanting to share the "behind the scenes" pics from my TV segment a couple of weeks ago. Photos taken by the super talented, Shannon, from Apple Velvet Photography.

I am still thrilled to have had the awesome opportunity to be on the Sonoran Living show on Nov 19th.  The TV segment was 4 minutes, but it felt like hours...LOL :) 

I was invited to share ideas/tips for an ornament exchange party!  I decided to style a table with my zebra print, red, black, and white.  Something a little outside  your traditional red/green holiday theme!  

I started planning and quickly contacted my chicky party partner, Rebecca, from the Fresh Chick Design Studio.  She created the perfect invite for the ornament exchange party!  Don't you love it?!.... I do!!! :)

She also designed the most beautiful printables to match my theme!  I truly love how everything turned out!

What about these gorgeous desserts you ask?  Well... I have this wonderful friend, Breanna.  She has her own cake/desserts business called Sugar Dreams.  I meant to say that while I was talking about her yummy desserts, but I was so nervous that my brain went "blank" and could not think of her business name....uggrrr!!  She is seriously talented!!! I admire her work so much!  If you live in Arizona, especially in the East Valley, you should contact her!

  

And here's what the table looked like.....

This is truly what went on BEFORE the pretty spread....don't mind the seriousness of the pics.... I was a nervous wreck and sweating like it was 120 degress in there.....LOL!

Ok...a smile will relax me right??!  Rebecca & I

Super proud of our hard work! 

Thank you Shannon, Breanna, and Rebecca for all your help to make this happen!! I can't thank you enough!! You are all wonderful!!!

A super special THANK YOU to Stephanie Sandoval, host of the show, and the producer for allowing me to come and share my ideas!
