Do you ever get to party time and realize that you just need a little something more? That is where I was for my daughter’s “Perfect in Paris” birthday party a couple of weeks ago–and yes, the full post on the festivities is forthcoming. I took a quick a look at the supplies I’d already [...]
Pin ItThis year, I desperately didn’t want to have all of the kids’ birthday parties at the house as we usually do. I also didn’t want to break my budget on a location. We have this great park nearby that is rarely busy. There is a pavilion in case of rain, a playground, a toilet and [...]
Pin ItPink & Orange have caught my eye. Just this past weekend, I hosted my daughter’s 10th birthday party using this color scheme (more to come soon). Tangerine Tango is the color of the year, you know, so it seems only appropriate, right? Moving onto this: Sugar cookie “short stacks”, edible “bunny slippers”, cheery shades of [...]
Pin ItAs we are spending this week up on a small lake amidst the woods and wildlife that make up Northern Wisconsin, this birthday party seemed an appropriate one to share. I saw this party when I was looking for ideas for my son’s “Take a Hike” party. We didn’t do anything nearly this elaborate, but [...]
Pin ItThese mini party hats are so adorable and perfect for any little person’s celebration (if they’ll wear them, that is). You can customize it with your own choice of colors and decorations.

Having just shared my crazy shasta daisies, it seemed an appropriate time to share a party theme originating from that little blooming beauty. This party started with a set of clearance Martha Stewart invitations (which, of course, I didn’t take a picture of). I usually like to have my own touch on the invites and such, but [...]
Pin ItI’ve been spending time thinking about this year’s birthday parties. As with last year, I am trying to pick a color that will carry through all three kids so that I can use the same decor, accessories and such for all of the parties. The first year I grasped hold of this color thing, was for [...]
Every birthday girl needs a little something special to wear for her big bash, right!?!? And, of course, it has to color coordinate with the rest of the party. You may recall my color scheme for the year has been red and turquoise, so at least I had a starting point. And, since it is around [...]
“Come fly with me, come fly, come fly away…” This year, the sky was the limit! We had an airplane themed party for the little man. Get your ticket! We’re ready to board! The boarding pass invitations (as well as all the other paper goods) were designed by yours truly. I made boxed lunches for all the little [...]
