My Review:
We all know basically how to celebrate special occasions and holidays. Throw some people together, add food&decorations and BAM! You have it all ready to celebrate, right? Well not so fast! Everyday Confetti, is a new twist on a traditional concept. What about those special events you would like to honor in some way, but the only trouble is you don't know how to begin. Well now you do and the secret is all in this book.
The authors, Karen Ehman&Glynnis Whitwer collaborated on this book along with a host of many others on all of their ideas for those in between times that are so important to us that deserve some sort of celebration. The ideas contained therein are endless yet interesting. It peaked my interest so much so that I couldn't put it down. Some of the ideas just never had dawned on me. Such as the day your child or children are reborn into the Kingdom of God-should be a day of celebration. Or maybe the day you witness your child doing a good day and you honor them by letting them have their dinner on the "family honor plate".
The authors also include website information to help with some of these celebrations and some recipes have been added to each chapter. This is an amazing, yet thorough book to help you with all your celebrations whether they be traditional or not yet realized. You should keep this book by your side and let it become your go-to book for anything celebratory.
**Disclosure** This book was sent to me free of charge or my honest review from Revell Publishers.
