Many of us, when planning to host a shower, holiday party, or even the exciting but overwhelming undertaking of planning a wedding, often develop 'writer's block' when it come time to pick decorations and think of centerpieces. At first, you have swarms of ideas, and visions of color palates, favorite flowers, or themes, but often its hard to put these ideas to fruition. Especially for the budget conscious planners that would like to create centerpieces themselves, ideally without having to buy everything. Love her or hate her, there is no denying that Martha Stewart is a queen of creativity. Not all of us can look at a pile of vegetables and wall paper scraps and turn it into a work of art. Simple gatherings of household items arranged just so, and now deemed worthy of the focal point of any formal setting. Get inspired by these gorgeous centerpieces. They may spark vision for your entire event.

Perhaps most excitingly, we also have welcomed two new members to the Any Occasion staff.  Lizbeth and Maureen have just joined us as our newest sales associates!

So please pardon our mess, we're making improvements to serve you better.

With the holidays behind us, I think everyone can agree its time to take a deep breath and recoup. We've got changes in store for 2010. One of our biggest goals is to make this site the best event planning resource. We want to make our website more useful, with more information, tons more pictures, and be even easier to navigate. We're going to keep you up to date with the latest trends, and upcoming local events. We would love to have your feedback. We are always involved with planning your events, but we want to hear about them after! Share pictures with us!! We're going to start having specials, and contests. You can now follow us on twitter and become a fan on facebook. Tell us what you think, we'd love to hear from you. As always, customer service and your satisfaction is our number one priority!
