The Celebration Shoppe
Super busy week this week working on three major projects. All of which I can’t wait to share with you, but today I only have time for a little update on my next project for snackpicks.com. I’m using these little individually wrapped Rice Krispies Treats to whip up some easy Halloween fun! And since, yes, I’ve been obsessing over …
So you guys know that I’ve been having a bit of anxiety about the first day of school. He hasn’t. I have. Well this morning I packed him up and took him to first grade. I felt like I was giving away my first born. Doesn’t he look so grown up?! I’m so very proud of him. …
These are some of my favorite deep blue sea and fish birthday party ideas: Octopus punch from Better Homes & Gardens Sand dollar cookies from Diamonds for Dessert Mini aquarium favors from Confessions of a Cookbook Queen Invitation from The Celebration Shoppe Jellyfish hanging decoration craft from Scrapbooks, Etc. We just added several new printable party …
I recently hosted a pirate party for my youngest son’s fifth birthday. It was so much fun and I have tons of DIY, along with a new pirate party printables collection (available in the shoppe soon), that I can’t wait to share with you over the next few weeks. To start off I thought I would share a super simple cookie …
My oldest is turning seven next month… seven! I can’t believe it. He’s the little guy that is in love with science, as you can see from last year’s birthday party. {proud momma smile} Well he also LOVES robots. He’s attempted to build them. He draws them. He’s completely fascinated by them. So when we started …

And …
My kids have a fascination with aliens and Martians, so I came up with these simple little green men to go with Kim’s Blast Off Space collection. Then my kids talked for an hour about whether they were aliens or Martians and where they really came from! Ha! Okay, so here’s the best part. These cookies …
I shared some pictures of my new Splash Bash and Deep Blue Sea collections almost a week ago, and this morning I’m showing tons more. With summer closing in on us, why not go out with a splash?! It’s as simple as packing a picnic lunch. Throwing a few goodies in the basket, like these …
I have a million things to do, but it’s a lovely day and I’m taking the afternoon with my boys. This was us on a hike yesterday afternoon in a beautiful forest near our home. We had so much fun, I want a repeat. And with the end of summer creeping up on us, I’m just …
The other thing I’ve been obsessing about (other than the lunch box) is the calendar! There is so much to keep track of when the little people go back to school. For us, my boys are at two separate schools (with dropoff/pickup at different times) on different days, plus sports, plus homework reminders, plus special projects due, …
