Shabby Chic Party Ideas and Tips
5:00:00 AM
First you must know what is Shabby Chic before you even consider doing this party theme. What is Shabby Chic you ask? Well it is basically antique items or materials that are distressed but have a opulent, soft and a cottage style decor feel. So when planning your shabby chic party make sure that you give your guest an air of vintage French with a lot of pastel colors and white and distressed decor pieces.
TIP:
WHEN USING PASTEL COLORS MAKE SURE THAT YOU USE ONE BOLD COLOR. IF NOT YOUR DECOR WILL LOOK WASHED OUT. SO REMEMBER A POP OF BOLD COLOR WILL MAKE YOUR DECOR LOOK HOT!
