sweet love for dessert tables

i have such a love for creating dessert tables. sometimes i think it should be a business. i guess any decor when entertaining is right up my alley, but the sweet alley is usually where i find the most fun. i love looking through amy atlas tables that she and her followers create. they're always so creative and tempting to the eye. my interest leaves me, developing my own dessert tables at every event we host. and when i planned weddings, it was one of the aspects i looked most forward to. with evia's 2nd birthday around the corner i've been spying tons of beautiful displays. last year i went all out, and made the table full of sweet-favors for the kids and guests to take home, this year i think i'm going to keep it simple, but it hasn't stopped me from researching!
