Jen gave a shout out on Twitter a while back for guest posts and I jumped at the chance to be a part of what she’s got going on over at Tatertots & Jello. Don’t be fooled by the name, that girl is full of crafting, clothing refashioning and house remodeling. Go check it out. I submitted a tutorial on how to assemble a beautiful fruit tray, another idea that goes along with my Partyschool 101 series. Fruit trays are always yummy in the summer and the winter, but the fruit selection right now is amazing–making it super easy to throw together a delicious platter for summer entertaining.

Edit: A couple of people have been wondering about this, so I’ll explain. My mom helped me with this platter of fruit and she wanted to add sugar to the grapes and blueberries for the photo. I don’t normally do that, so I didn’t mention it. But if you’d like to, rinse off the fruit and roll it in a plate of sugar while the fruit is still wet. Then let the sugar and fruit dry. It’s a bit decadent for me.

Oh, and we served this fruit tray at the Wizard of Oz Party.
