1st and 3rd Birthday Celebration Details

April 18, 2012

parties

Posted 09/12

Since this was a party with lots of little ones and double the amount of adults, I focused on having a relaxed and open setting with good food, drinks, and activities on hand:) I wrapped both the food table and kids table with kraft paper (you can buy it by the roll). The kids could use their space to color and it also makes for an easy clean up! Since it was a party for Gabriel AND Veronica, I used Navy, Lime, and Bright Pink as the color theme. I had such a hard time finding these colors in stores (especially navy) so I was thrilled when these shops came through for me! ….
Plates, Napkins, Cutlery, Balloons, Striped Straws via PlatesandNapkins.com (the only place I could find these colors!)
Cupcake liners and toppers kit via The Papered Nest
Tissue Pom Kit via Pom Love
We were blessed to celebrate with many good friends, and hopefully captured some memories for our children:) I will post three party DIY’s tomorrow so stay tuned!
P.S. The winner of the GCOCH giveaway was #3….Danielle! Please contact me for info! Thanks to everyone who entered! Look forward to seeing you on the site:)

    Seeing cupcakes so early in the morning probably isn’t a good way to start off the day with my waistline, BUT THEY LOOK SO GOOD!!!!!

  5. So sweet! I love the bright, fun colours you chose–perfect for both a boys’ and girls’ birthdays!:)

  6. Absolutely adorable! My brother and I have birthday’s 3 days apart (well, and about 7 years) and there was always a joint venture going on! Though the kids didn’t hang out together much (what 12 year boys want to hang out with 5 year old girls?!?). Can’t wait for the DIY! It looks great!

  14. That’s so funny that you mentioned the colors because just as I was looking at the pics, I thought to myself, “where in the world did she find navy plates?” Looks like a wonderful party…I would expect nothing less from you! 🙂
