Last weekend I spent my Sunday afternoon decorating the lovely dining room of an Upper East Side women's home for the Bowery Mission Women's Center. My roommate Katherine volunteers weekly with the BMWC and takes the ladies on walks every Saturday afternoon. She was instrumental in making this grand party such an immense success by her recruiting so many volunteers. The group of volunteers worked together to make a delicious meal, beautiful individual flower arrangements (by LA) and some fun (and vintage-inspired) decorations. It was one of the most fun and well-spent afternoons I've seen in a long time... watching the look of excitement and glee as the women entered the dining room and saw the beautifully planned party in their honor was a special moment!
