Melanated Magic Tea Party

It's Monday and this weekend had its share of things to get done (hence a few entries missing).

Yesterday was hectic, but such a breath of fresh air. I was able to vend at a dear friends event. It's a new venture for her. She is an amazing nutritionist who traded her profession to make more time to spend at home with her family. The trade didn't seem to be a difficult decision for her to make since she is a nurturer and entrepreneur at heart. 

The first business venture I can remember of hers outside of nutrition is her PAWSE body care line. She makes everything from body butter to eyelash serum, and all of it is handcrafted and made with natural products. But this venture was a bit different in nature. 

She touts a lot about her 3 beautiful children. In fact, they were what encouraged her to create PAWSE in the first place. It was her 2 daughters and other little girls of color that inspired her to create moments of magic at this tea party she called Melanated Magic Tea Party. 

It was a great time! Mothers and daughters all dressed up in mostly matching tea time attire.  Conversations between new mother friends, and dancing between new daughter friends. Various teas and finger sandwiches. Photographers to capture special moments and vendors for the ladies to purchase various items. 

Kudos to you Stacey Matthews-Woodson! You threw an amazing event that served it's purpose to uplift the lives of little brown chocolate girls! Thank you for allowing me to be a part of such an event. I look forward to seeing your much-deserved success in all of the ventures that you have your hands in!
