{sadie} flaggy flaggy flaggy flag.

Decorations are a big deal. they pretty much make the theme. my sister's bat mitzvah theme was pink, so it wasn't to hard to comprehend the idea..but i will have to try to get across the theme from just the visuals. So i love these flags. my mom makes these really great triangular party flags, that we could probably do with these same patterns.

and since that is the sailor alphabet, we could spell something out having to do with the bat mitzvah. and since the patterns are so simple, i think it would be pretty easy to recreate.

and on a side note having nothing to do with my bat mitzvah, i think this is funny.

{shari} body of water? check!

Doesn't a party billed as Sailor Glam just beg for a body of water??

Lucky for us, we have rented a beautiful 1940's party place that sits on top of a rolling hill overlooking our nearby city lake.

The price might be the best in town and the location is primo.

Another huge plus is our familiarity of the space.

We had Sophie's party here too and it was terrific.

There aren't a lot of rule and restrictions.

No list of approved caterers (we'll bring in some of our own food) and

no limits on decor. Perfectly unfancy. Just the way we like it!

Great drive up appeal.

Tables and chairs are provided. We'll likely use the tables and

rent nicer chairs.

This is my favorite part of the building. A wrap around L- shaped

screened in porch. Last time we set up our food tables out here.

We love it.

What do you think?

{sadie} intro

last summer, i read a book called "the mysterious benedict society and the perilous journey". for me, this book kicked off everything sailor glam. in the book, it talked about pretty rugged sailors, big burly guys with tattoos who lifted cargo onto boats. the whole time i was reading it, i just felt a connection, as if i really needed to do something about this whole sailor thing.

so i decided that i would make my theme to my bat mitzvah "sailor glam". basically, all of those sailors, lifting cargo, with the big tattoos and all of the flags, but girly. i'm not really sure if this will make sense right now, but soon, you will really get it, and hopefully, love the idea as much as me.

this link shows one of my videos on my youtube channel inspired by sailors.
