The Celebration Shoppe
The photoshoot went very well this weekend. This one is of our new printable cupcake wrappers and toppers. There are four little animals in our design, a cow, chicken, pig and sheep, and they all get to be in the spotlight with their own topper and sound. Here’s a look at the rest of the collection!
I know I’ve been missing in action this week and I apologize, but I promise it was for good reason. Here’s a preview of the two new birthday party invitation designs that will launch early next week. The first is brand new and I loving call “down on the farm.” Don’t you just love the little …
I’m really excited about the new farm birthday party theme that we’ve got in the works. I’m hoping to launch it on Monday, September 21, if the sun holds out for a nice photo shoot this weekend. {wink} In honor of our farm animal friends, I went in search of some fun cakes and I have …
Lindsey at the Pleated Poppy had a beautiful pink party for her little girl this summer. One of my personal favorites is the idea of adding height to your decor with non-helium balloons hung from the ceiling on clear fishing line. She combined hers with paper lanterns and embellished her chandelier with fun pink beads. And …
We’ve had several customer inquires about the zebra print shown in our photography with our fuchsia pink and black decor (divine, blossoms, bubbly) so we thought we would add a cool zebra print gable box to our collection. These boxes are wonderful not only for gifting, but also for displaying food or creating a centerpiece with …
I have to admit I’m really getting in the mood for the spookiest holiday of the year! This weekend my boys and I started practicing our Halloween decorating skills with a few ghastly treats, namely these witch-on-a-stick pretzels and frankentreats from Parenting Magazine’s October 2008 issue. Witch-on-a-stick how to: Cut off the tops of pretzel rods …
And last but not least for our deep blue sea bash, we made a toss game to match our party theme. The great thing about this is you could change the shapes and fabric to match any kind of party theme. Here’s what you’ll need: 2 yards of coordinating fabric 3 pre-cut squares of coordinating felt …
For my big guy’s fifth birthday party, a deep blue sea bash at the local Splash Pad, we gave monogrammed beach towels sporting crabs, whales, seahorses, octopus and fish to all his little guests as fun favors. They’re from Sew Jewell on Etsy and they were a big hit! The other idea I wanted to share before the recap was …
For our deep blue sea bash I also made flip flop rice crispy pops. I’ve mentioned before that my youngest has severe food allergies and these are a great non-dairy (and non-egg) treat, but you can make them the normal way too. They’re really super simple to make and a great end of summer treat …
My oldest wanted our deep blue sea birthday invitation and decor for his fifth birthday, but with one special addition… sharks! {wink} With that in mind, I made these super fun shark, life preserver, harbor marker and cork cupcakes from the Hello! Cupcake book (with a few modifications). He loved them!
