    Giving Pretty

    September 29, 2020

    They’re back! The most elegant, simple, and classic gift boxes by Sugar Paper exclusively for Target. They are only available during the holiday season and when they hit the stores I ruuuuuuuuuun for them. I may or may not have ordered more than I need but I find so many creative ways to use these boxes throughout the year. This year they come in a light aqua and gold color and oh my goodness, the colors couldn’t be more perfect for my aesthetic at home. I feel like they were made for me this year! I am planning on using the gift boxes for under my Christmas tree again this year and I can barely wait to start decorating.

    I love designing parties but designing my own chil I love designing parties but designing my own children’s parties are something else. After all, their birthdays are the best day of my life! 🎀 

On a side note: My sweet Milan was just fine after this photo. He was in the middle of his fun and we pulled him away for a quick photo. The struggle to get a family photo (with everyone’s eyes open} is real 💗

    Had the pleasure to be a part of Norooz {Iranian N Had the pleasure to be a part of Norooz {Iranian New Year} for one of the most beautiful families (@tinasadri and @drehsansadri) I am lucky to call friends. 

If you are unfamiliar with Norooz {Persian / Iranian New Year}, Norooz in its literal translation means New Day – “No” means New and “Rooz” means Day. It is observed based on the Persian calendar and it is an ancient and traditional celebration of the beginning of Spring marking the first day of Spring as the first day of the new year. 

The way Iranian’s prepare for the arrival of Norooz is by setting and prettifying a table spread (also known as a Sofreh Haft-Seen) with symbolic and traditional items that represent many elements in our life and new year to come. Seven specific items are placed on the spread that start with the letter “S” or to be more specific the Persian letter “Seen”. Haft-Seen in its literal translation means 7 (Haft) seens. 7 “S’s”. 🇮🇷

{SABZEH} wheat or lentil sprouts growing in a dish – symbolizing growth and renewal
{SAMANOO} a sweet pudding made from wheat germ – symbolizing wealth
{SENJED} the dried fruit of the oleaster tree – symbolizing love
{SEER} garlic – symbolizing medicine
{SEEB} apples – symbolizing beauty and health
{SERKEH} vinegar – symbolizing age and patience
{SEKKEH} coins – prosperity and wealth
{SONBOL} hyacinth flower – symbolizing the start of spring
{SOMAGH} sumac – symbolizing the sunrise and sunset

{Other items that are used on the spread that don’t start with the letter “S”}

Mirror and lit candles – symbolizing self reflection, enlightenment and happiness
Decorated eggs – symbolizing fertility and family 
A bowl with goldfish – symbolizing life
Holy book {depending on faith} – symbolizing God’s blessing
Traditional pastries, nuts, and dried fruits – symbolizing food and feasts
