Pinecones?

They’re the easiest way I know to bring nature inside. My daughter and I started collecting them a while ago. They’re on every shelf in the house and scattered around the backyard. The smallest one we have is about a centimeter; the biggest is a foot tall.

Hi! My name is Jessica.

Before P&P, I built software. I left for two reasons. The part of the work I loved was the thinking, and AI started doing that part for me. And my daughter got old enough for arts and crafts, all glue and glitter and nothing efficient about any of it, and I was jealous.

So now I do this.

My design philosophy is less is more. That’s a dangerous idea in party planning, where more is usually the safe bet, but it’s the thing I want to get truly good at. Kraft paper, real flowers, blankets that stay put, and the details that make it theirs.

Mostly, I just want to help people celebrate. 2026 is a lot. Everyone has too much to do and not enough hands to do it with. I’d like to be your extra set of hands, the kind that care.

Let me help you create beautiful memories.
