So, I have learned since I got into the "handmade" business, that once Halloween hits, buckle down and hold on tight cause the storm is-a-coming! With the holidays, craft shows, and (in our houshold) birthdays, things can get a little bit crazy.
Last year, I just couldn't even muster the time and energy to throw Kaylee a birthday party, so to relieve my guilt (which is solely there because of me), I decided to throw a big old bash this year!
How am I going to do this (honestly, I am still not sure)- I am starting the planning now.
Kaylee liked the Alice and Wonderland theme with a Mad Hatters Tea Party! I found wonderful inspiration from other bloggers, and have a running list of all I want to do. Here are some of the photos ( all taken by Jessica Claire)
And, I have an ACE in my back pocket! My ever so talented friend Jaime with So Divine Designs is making the invitations. She has just sent me a mock up and they are BaNaNaS (that means awesome if you don't know)!
Now, I just have to follow through with the rest of the stuff to meet everyones expectations after they get that beautiful invitation (YIKES) . If you haven't visited So Divine Designs yet, take a peak. Jamie is extremely talented with invitations and also designing logos.
I will follow-up this post with the actual birthday pictures (maybe I can call in another fabulous friend to help:)) and will make sure to include the invitations for all of my 'blogger friends" to see too!
